Description

An in depth tutorial and discussion around the assassination of John F. Kennedy, (JFK) the country's 35th president who was brutally murdered in Dallas Texas on November 22, 1963.Episode 48 is a continuation of  our journey into the mysterious world of the Grassy Knoll and the idea of a conspiracy.  This episode is  dedicated to one  witness  Richard Randolph Carr and is the second  in a two part series.  Carr happened to be inside the new criminal courts building at the time of the motorcade on November 22nd, and what he saw from a high floor was nothing short of fantastic.  This building was still under construction at the time of the assassination.   His testimony was taken by the FBI but his statement was altered and augmented  so as  not  to be contradictory to the lone gunman theory.   He was completely ignored by the Warren Commission and did not testify under oath until Jim Garrison conducted the Clay Shaw trial in 1969.  Episode 47 set the stage and Episode 48 reproduces the entirety of his Clay Shaw Trial Testimony.  These two episodes should be listened to in conjunction with one another.   Once again,  the tragedy that is the assassination extends itself to more than just the President.   After we wind down our coverage of the Dealey Plaza witnesses,  the next series of episodes waiting in the wings will cover a wide array of forensic topics including the autopsy.   These episodes have begun  to explore  an array of matters that  dive into a deeper  darkness  related to what  went on that day in Dallas. Matters   that possibly point  to a  wider  and more sinister  plot to kill the president and  that clearly call into question theory that there was a  lone assassin.   Complex cases without  an eyewitness that can actually identify the shooter make the forensic and circumstantial evidence that much more important.  Ironically, problems abound with much of the evidence in this case. Evidence that is complex, incomplete and sometimes conflicting. Even as early as 1964, rumors and serious concerns over  the lone gunman theory and the evidence that might contravene it,  were becoming a major concern for the government and the commission. Conspiracy theories were contrary to the government's stated narrative from the very beginning. Stay tuned as there are many more episodes to come!This series comprehensively explores the major facts,  themes, and  events leading up to the assassination in Dealey Plaza and the equally gripping stories surrounding the subsequent investigation. We  review  key elements of the Warren Commission Report , and the role of the CIA and FBI. We explore the  possible involvement of the Mafia in the murder and the review of that topic by the government's House Select Committee on Assassinations in the 1970's. We explore the Jim Garrison investigation and the work of other key figures such as Mark Lane and others. Learn more about Lee Harvey Oswald the suspected killer and Jack Ruby the distraught Dallas night club owner with underworld ties and the man that killed Oswald as a national TV audience was watching.  Stay with us as we take you through the facts and theories in bite sized discussions that are designed to educate, and inform as well as entertain the audience. This  real life story is more fascinating than fiction. No matter whether you are a serious researcher or a casual student, you will enjoy the fact filled narrative and story as  we relive one of the most shocking moments in American History. An event that changed the nation and changed the world forever.
