After 60 years the witness breaks silence, raises new questions about the murder of former President Kennedy

November 22nd 1963 began as a routine day for President Kennedy. He and his wife Jacquesline, commonly known as Jackie, were in Fort Worth, Texas for a series of political events.

On the morning of November 22nd, the presidential couple left Fort Worth for Dallas, where several meetings and a public parade in downtown. The atmosphere was festive, and thousands of people gathered to see the president and the first lady.

At 12:30, as the presidential limo was passing through Dealey Plaza, several shots were heard from a building near the parade road. President Kennedy was shot twice, one in the neck and one in the head.

Texas Governor John Connally, who was in the vehicle with Kennedy, was also injured.

The murder of JFK has been the subject of countless conspiracy theories, some of which suggest that Oswald has not acted alone. These theories vary from mafia to FBI, CIA, including other nations like the Soviet Union and Cuba.

Although the Warren Commission, established to investigate the murder, concluded that Oswald was the only one to blame, many people carry scepticism and I believe there was a bigger plot behind the assassination.

“

The theory of the magic “lumb” is a major part of the conspiracy theories about the murder of John F. Kennedy. This term refers to the bullet that, according to the Warren Commission, caused both President Kennedy and Governor John Connally wounds during the attack.

The theory of the “Picture bullet was introduced by the Warren Commission, led by Chief of Justice Earl Warren, and was based on reconstruction of the events and bullet trajectors that hit Kennedy and Connally. According to Warren, the sole author, Lee Harvey Oswald, shot two shots from the six-floor window.

One, known as “Plumb”, hit Kennedy in the back, passed through his body and then hit Connally, wounding him.

A former Secret Service agent, who was far away from John F Kennedy when the former president was shot dead, broke the silence after decades, cast doubt on the theory of a bullet being held by the commission investigating the assassination.

In an interview published by the New York Times over the weekend, Paul Landis said he long believed that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone when he killed Kennedy.

But, based on differences between the things he saw on assassination day and the report by the commission, Landis said he had begun to suspect himself.

60 years later, Paul Landis, one of the Secret Service agents just a few yards from President John F. Kennedy on that fateful day in Dallas, is telling his story full for the first time.

And in at least one key aspect, its argument differs from the official version in a way that can change the meaning of what happened at Dealey Plaza. Laddis has spent most of the years moving away from history, trying to forget that moment inscribed on the conscience of a grieving nation. The memories were so disturbing, so much so that Landis left the service and Washington after.

Until finally, as nightmares seem to have passed, they returned. He began reading, and what he read was not entirely right. That day, on November 22, 1963, Kennedy was killed (and Texas Mayor John Connally was wounded) by two bullets fired in the presidential convoy.

According to the official version, Kennedy was hit twice and Connally suffered various wounds. For Warren, the first bullet went through Kennedy's throat and then through the shoulder, chest and wrist of the governor's hand, touching his thigh.

For this reason, since then the many skeptics, convinced that it has been shot by another direction, speak of a <x0-bulbe magic”.

Now they are helped with the testimony of Paul Landis, a secret service agent who was following the president's car that day, standing on board the direction of a Cadillac.

In a memo titled “Last Witness” who will be published in the United States on October 10th, 88-year-old Lancedis says he heard 3 shots that day, not two.

And then he shows that he had collected “his magiclumb” in the sense of the presidential car, so he wouldn't be stolen by some major souvenir seeker and that he put it in the barella where the president's body was.

Not a small statement, if it's true, since, according to Warren's data, the bullet was found in the barela of Connally, not the president's, and therefore experts believed it was the governor's injury.

Landis is considered by all as a serious person, he never believed in conspiracy theories about Kennedy's death and has always been convinced that Oswald was the only one who shot.

But his theory comes from different perspectives, as noted in the New York Times” by Peter Baker himself, chief correspondent from the White House who interviewed him.

Today he says that he was upset (not sleeping five nights): He may have built up memories superficially and incorrectly. But it may be his memory that betrays him 60 years later.

The other doubt concerns his failure to intervene to correct the Winden Commission: he claims investigators never called him to testify, and the one who had already resigned from the secret service did not read the final report.

Just about ten years ago, he understood what things were like, but he was afraid to be exposed: he could be accused of hiding essential elements from the crime scene.

A story with a lot of gray areas that will trigger discussions and bring back to the second killer's top plan.

But the issue, for this reason, will not be reopened.
