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.
The Murder of the Hollywood Starlet A young hollywood starlet was brutally murdered in 1947 with no killer identified to this day. This is real case that still puzzles investigators today. The woman in question was named Elizabeth Short, but is more widely known as the “Black Dahlia.” She was given this nickname by the press because of the sheer, black clothing she tended to wear (“The Black Dahlia Murder - Read All about it in FBI Records.”).
A Texas family put World War II veteran Robert McMinn to rest after he lost his fight with Parkinson's disease, but two months later they received a disturbing call about his body. ABC7 reports the man that served his country by taking part in over 30 bombing missions above Germany was now dripping out of his casket. The family chose the cemetery because they sold themselves using the word 'dignity' on their brochures. Doug said: "It's unthinkable to me that a man, like my father, would go through that."
John F. Kennedy Assassination Conspiracy Theory: Lyndon B. Johnson John F. Kennedy, the 35th United States President, was assassinated on November 22, 1963 during a parade while he and his wife were visiting Dallas, Texas. The Warren Commission has concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald, a lone shooter, was the man who committed the crime. Over the years after Kennedy’s death, people have come up with other ideas of why and how this president died. One of many conspiracies was made by his wife, Jacqueline Kennedy, saying that Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson had something to do with it. She believed that he wanted to become the president so badly that he would kill to get it.
The mafia was the most powerful criminal organization in the world. The reason for this belief was that Jack Ruby, the man who shot Oswald, had ties with the mafia. One of the reasons that the mafia could have had reason to murder the president was that his brother, Robert Kennedy, who was also the attorney general, had been acting quite aggressively against some of the mafia bosses. Robert also led a strong campaign against the mafia. Many believe that the mafia saw that getting rid of Kennedy would also get rid of his brother, since there would have to be a new administration after his death, and Robert would have to be replaced.
Brian Hernandez Prof. Cicirelli CM-115-02 11/30/15 JFK Assassination Many conspiracies have taken place within government, but none of them have been more serious then JFK assassination. When JFK had fired its director and other agents, the CIA was scared that Kennedy would take down the CIA permently, he believed to be an extremely terrible agency under the government. The shooter, Lee Harvey Oswald, who was in the marines at one point was planted into the biggest CIA camp somewhere in the Asian pacific and had been wanting to attend the CIA. Apparently he was the guy for the job. Many critics say that Lee Harvey Oswald might have been brain washed by the CIA.
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.
In order to help the media to “convince the public that Oswald is the real assassin,” the Warren Commission was obliged to describe in detail how Oswald, without assistance, was able to kill one man and injure two others. If any of these statements were contradicted by the balance of the evidence, Oswald could not have committed the crime alone. The Warren Commission attempted to deal with these constraints by devising what became known as the single–bullet theory. All three of their points have been proven to be almost impossible, the only real explanation is simple: there had to be a second
