60 Years After JFK’s Assassination, Will the Truth Finally Be Revealed?
The death of John F. Kennedy is one of history’s most enduring mysteries. Conspiracy theories have swirled around the events of November 22, 1963, ever since Lee Harvey Oswald, a former Marine, was arrested for the president’s assassination in Dallas, Texas. Harold Finch, special agent in charge of the Secret Service at the time, described it as “a day that will live in infamy”.
Could there be more than meets the eye?
On November 22, 1963, President Kennedy was motorcaded through Dallas when he was shot and killed. The public was shocked and saddened. Oswald was arrested just hours later, but he was murdered by nightclub owner Jack Ruby two days later, making it impossible to investigate his possible motives and knowledge of the assassination.
