Who Killed JFK – Historian Presents a Modern Analysis Part II

This event is not open to the general public.
Who Killed JFK?
I’ll Tell You!
The murder of John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963, shocked the nation. A suspect was quickly arrested and subsequently murdered. President Lyndon Johnson appointed a blue ribbon committee – the Warren Commission – to answer the question: who killed JFK?
They concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald was the sole assassin. Immediately, the public was skeptical. Stephen King described Oswald as “a semi-educated hillbilly with delusions of grandeur.” How could such an insignificant loser pull off such a dastardly crime? And why did Jack Ruby, accused of being a Mob member, kill Oswald?
We have been through with whispered knowledge of conspiracies, confessions, and coverups. And so the public has asked for an explanation of the “magic bullet.”
And the contradictory witness statements.
And Oswald’s shadowy past.
And all of the “secret files.”
And all of the conspiracy theories.
And all of the “mysterious deaths” associated with the assassination?
Books, articles, movies, and documentaries have raised innumerable questions about who killed JFK.
Who Killed JFK – Computer Analysis
So, who killed JFK? I will attempt to answer as many of these questions as possible. First, I will try to separate historical fact from theory & speculation. Second, I will show what historical records indicate happened. We have access to much more information today than the Warren Commission had in 1963/4 or the House of Representatives had in 1977. Third, we will examine what modern computer forensics can tell about crime. For instance, the Warren Commission had access to the “Zapruder Film.” Today, we can use computers to enhance and analyze the film. We can use modern technology to explore the path of each of the bullets that were fired.
Who Killed JFK – Computer Analysis
We can also use computers to isolate the mysterious sounds that a Dallas motorcycle patrolman captured. In 1977, the House of Representatives believed that the recording showed four shots fired in Dealy Plaza. The National Academy of Science, among many other groups, has taken the same sound recordings and used state-of-the-art technology to analyze them. What do we know now?
You may disagree with my conclusions, but you will definitely learn a lot and come away with a new perspective on the historical record of who killed JFK.
