In the last episode we examined James Angleton’s ties to Israel. To say that Israel had an ally in James Angleton would be a massive understatement. For those who believe Israel is behind the JFK Assassination, the close relationship with Angleton establishes an Israeli connection to actions that only someone inside the CIA, like Angleton, could take.   Other than Angleton, what other players are on the board in the Israel did it theory? Today, we’ll look at two of them: Meye

In the last episode, we analyzed potential motives that Israel would have to want President Kennedy out of office, making it clear that the Israeli government had a few reasons to want JFK out of the picture. But, this is nothing new in the study of the JFK Assassination. Every accused group or institution that we’ve studied and will be studying has a motive. That’s why they’re even in the conversation. And that’s why this case is so confusing. Sure, Israel had motive, but th

We are currently making our way through the third season of Solving JFK. Having determined in Season 1 that the Warren Report could not be correct and that there was at least one shot fired from the front, we then turned our undivided attention in Season 2 to the life of Lee Harvey Oswald from birth to death, which revealed that he was no lone nut. In this Season 3, we have been asking the question, if not Oswald, then who?   Thus far, we’ve put some important agencies and in

In the last episode, we stepped back into the world of Jack Ruby, not in the basement of the Dallas Police Department, but in the decades that  led him there . By the end of the last episode one thing was clear: Jack Ruby was suspiciously close with many organized crime figures and he very likely was running guns to Cuba before Castro took over. If the last episode showed us  how  Ruby entered the orbit of organized crime, this episode looks at  just how deep inside that orbi

When Jack Ruby stepped out of the crowd and fired a single shot into Lee Harvey Oswald’s abdomen, the best chances of finding out about Oswald’s potential role in the assassination died with him at Parkland Hospital. In Episode 26, we dissected Ruby’s actions from November 21st through the 24 th of 1963, including the suspicious security lapses at the Dallas Police Department, the strange money transfer Ruby made minutes before the shooting, and the conflicting testimony abo

Thus far in this section on the Mafia, we’ve looked at the history of American organized crime, with the Kennedy brothers playing an adversarial role in that story, beginning with the McClellan Committee. We heard what the Church Committee had to say when it came to Robert Maheu and the CIA-Mafia plots to kill Fidel Castro. Then, we learned that Johnny Roselli was still embedded with the Cuban exiles, even after the Church Committee said he was not.   We’ve given the spotligh

We’ve been looking at key mafia figures who were most likely to have been involved in a plot to kill President Kennedy. In the last episode, we talked about Jimmy Hoffa, Meyer Lansky, and Sam Giancana.   In this episode we pick up where we left off by studying Johnny Roselli and Santos Trafficante to try to gain an understanding of whether there is any truth to the idea that the mafia, or anyone affiliated with it, was involved in President Kennedy’s murder.   Johnny Roselli

One of the reasons why many people believe that the mafia was involved in the assassination of John F. Kennedy is because the mob had motive to get rid of him. Given the performance of the Kennedy brothers on the McClellan Committee – Chief Counsel Robert Kennedy, in particular - most of the bosses in La Cosa Nostra did not expect the Kennedys to suddenly become lenient towards organized crime. Of course, Sam Giancana’s agreement with Joe Kennedy, Sr. likely had the effect of

“There are some very important witnesses who simply have not been interrogated fully on this matter. Subcommittee was unable to do it in the time available and there are important leads that were uncovered in the investigation that clearly need to be followed up.” – Frank Church   “This report documents the failures of the U.S. Intelligence establishment in their investigation of President Kennedy’s assassination and their cover up to the Warren Commission.” - Senator Richard

So far in our expedition to uncover the truth about who killed President Kennedy, we’ve looked at the Secret Service, finding that there were numerous instances of security stripping and anomalies in Dallas, many of which were tied back to a single agent - Winston Lawson, but there was no clear explanation for why Agent Lawson took the actions that he did.   We also analyzed the role of J. Edgar Hoover and the FBI, finding that, while Hoover failed to relay a couple of mafia
