Manage episode 393942970 series 2951880
Episode 204 is the fifteenth in a series covering the Secret Service and possible involvement in the coverup, or the actual plot itself to assassinate President Kennedy. Today's episode is part 2 of a multi part mini-series covering the presidential limousine. Was there a bullet hole through and through the windshield? If so, then did it come from the front.. or the back? And what happened to the evidence of it. How did the government overcome at least ten eyewitnesses who saw the hole. How was this evidence suppressed. Why were these witnesses never spoken to about the hole? Why does the official piece of evidence, the windshield, sitting in the national archives today, show no evidence of a bullet hole. Is it a forgery? If so, is there a fantastic tale surrounding how this rather surreptitious event occurred. And if it did occur, what does that say about the work of the secret service and the FBI as it relates to the forensic review of the limousine. Why didn't the secret service follow basic crime scene protocols to preserve the epicenter of the crime...which was the limousine. Join us in this nail biter and when it's all over, and you hear the story and the first hand accounts from eye witnesses, go ahead and conclude on your own about what really happened to the windshield. And whether there really was a shot from the front. Could this resolve the issue of where and how a shot came to pierce the front of President Kennedy's neck...an entrance wound and not part of the hypothesis that came become the single bullet or "magic bullet" theory. And if it is true that the Secret Service obfuscated this evidence, then what does that mean in terms of more expansive elements of the coverup, or even involvement.
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. 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.
