Assassination Paper Many people know about the assassination of John F. Kennedy. What day it was on, where he was, and who he was with. But did you know that the main suspect for the murder, Lee Harvey Oswald, was also assassinated two days after the killing of John F. Kennedy. Lee Harvey Oswald’s assassination by Jack Ruby was unjustified because he did not have the ability to defend himself, however, the killing of Oswald exposed the idea that the assassination was a much more organized plan to end JFK’s presidency. It had been only 48 hours and 7 minutes since the assassination of John F. Kennedy when nightclub owner Jack Ruby killed Lee Harvey Oswald. In these short hours, Oswald barely had any time to plead innocent or guilty to the shooting. His name was in news reports and he was being held and charged for the shooting (Kesselring. "Lee …show more content…

If Jack Ruby had not killed Lee Harvey Oswald there would not have been suspicions that others were involved. Ruby had no motive for the killing. One possible theory was that Fidel Castro was behind the assassination because he disagreed with JFK’s ideas about world peace. Many believed that Jack Ruby attempted to kill Fidel Castro. Another popular theory was that Lyndon B. Johnson was behind the shooting due to his hatred of the Kennedy’s and his desire to be president. (Thomas, Michael. "JFK Assassination And Coverup: New Evidence and Testimony Emerges." Infowars. Digital Millennium, 20 Nov. 2013.)

    Jack Ruby is the man who on the day following the assassination fatally shot Lee H. Oswald. The clear and obvious motive that is assumed, and that would be assumed had it been someone else who shot Oswald, was that Ruby was a left-wing pro-Castro socialist who was just so horribly distressed by the death of JFK that he took the law into his own hands and sought vengeance. However, those who thought that would be terribly wrong. Jack Ruby was a Dallas night club owner, as well as having many other business ventures. He had many ties to organized crime and was known to have friends in the Dallas Police Force, who likely helped in his release multiple times in his mile long criminal record, with most of those crimes being for liquor licence violations and other club ventures.

    I think Lee Harvey Oswald was involved in a larger conspiracy. I Think this because there were multiple shooters and I don't think it was just him. Oswald might have been pushed to do it by the government or like the Russian government because J.F.K knew something and didn't want j.fk to tell. What I mean by pushed is he was forced like getting a bribe or getting threatened.
