There are numerous conspiracy theories about why it was done, but it is generally accepted that Oswald was the trigger-man and that Jack Ruby killed him so he wouldn't blab to the Feds who would questioned him, in what would have been a very unpleasant way.

Read Adam's answer, he gives the facts and cites Bugliosi's book.

There is no evidence anyone else did anything. When people do things, there is evidence, meetings, money changes hands, etc.



By the way, did you know the REASON Oswald was confronted by Officer Tippett a couple hours after the shooting was he fit the description of the guy seen on the 6th floor shooting at the president? Did you know that somoene saw a person shooting, described that person to the police, and Oswald was stopped because he fit the description?



Oh, I almost forgot, Oswald shot officer Tippett in cold blood in front of about 12 witnesses, each of who postiviely IDd him, and together they al saw some or all of him walking over to the cop car, shooting him, walking away emptying the revolver and reloading it.



He had that revolver in his pocket when he was arrested in the Texas Theater, well, actually it wasn't in his pocket, he pulled it out and tried to shoot even more cops.



Some patsy, huh?

I'm going to get lots of thumbsdown for this but i can give you the honest answer. It was Oswald and only Oswald. The movie JFK is %98 fiction and there was no second gunman. Lee Bowers statements in the movie JFK along with other witnesses were taken out of context and even made up. Bowers never saw a dirty Chevy Impala go behind the Picket Fence and nobody saw a puff of smoke or any Badgeman. The driver didn't do it because Jackie would have pointed the finger at him at Parkland Hospital. Oswald was in fact on the 6th floor when the shots were fired and those shots weren't impossible to make. How do we know he was up there? His fingerprints were all over the snipers nest that was made. It wasn't some new age mumbo jumbo that made it easy for them to plant fingerprints... anybody who thinks that is living in a fantasy world and wishes there were more to life than meets the eye but i'm sorry... our dear old president was struck down by a fanatic loonie. The first shot completely missed. The second shot went through Kennedy's throat down into Connollys back. The third shot hit JFK in the side of the head and went out the right front. If you watch the Zapruder film closely when the fatal headshot hits you'll see Kennedy's head go forward but his body goes backwards due to neuromuscular reaction. Think about this... if they were going to frame somebody for the murder of the President why would they pick Oswald and frame him with a cheap mail order rifle? Come one now... these are supposed to be intelligent people setting up a patsy with nothing to chance. One of Kennedy's most famous quotes was "All one needs to do in order to kill the president is to be willing to give up his life as well". That's the truth. Oswald was no patsy... he was the lone gunman. The guy that gave him a ride to work that morning and every other morning seen the strange package Oswald had and claimed it was "curtain rods". Oswald also walked ahead of him while going up the building which he found very peculiar. Two Book Depository workers that were eating a chicken dinner one floor below where Oswald was not only heard the shots but heard the shells hitting the ground and dust coming from the ceiling. Oswald left what money he had and jewelery he had on Marinas dresser that morning saying "get the kids some new shoes". Sounds like a man going to his fate. You also need to ask yourself why did he flee when no other worker fleed the building. They took a role call and everyone was there but Oswald. And IF he were a government agent involved in the Assassination he would have with all certainly been picked up after the shooting in a getaway car... and brought to his death... but they let him get arrested and interrogated for 2 days??? But then they say he was framed by a group of intelligent and powerful people? The conspiracy doesn't add up. It was Oswald and Only Oswald. I could go on all night but i'm not going to. Btw... don't listen to that idiot saying it was the Freemasons... "listen to his last speech". That wasn't his last speech... that speech was given in 1961 and was called Freedom of the Press Speech. Even if it was that speech that got him killed why the hell would they wait 2 years to kill him??? We know the person that said that above me is already a liar in saying that was his last speech. Think about it and read the book i'm citing for you below.

The conspiracy theory buffs have so many often absurd candidates,but it was Oswald.The last show I watched was made using film shot on the day of the assassination and also experts checking out trajectory angles then of course there was the cigarette which was the brand Oswald used,the fact he was in place that day at work,I thought they made a very strong case to blame Oswald on the crime.

Oswald was a communist supporter,had spent time in the U.S.S.R,married a Russian woman and was a trained sniper and acknowledged an expert marksman and as Kennedy faced down Cuba and Russia over the placing of missiles on Cuba many consider Cuba/Russia arranged the hit.

Some other people think the Mafia were involved in the assassination as Kennedy and his brother Robert were taking a hard line against organised crime and many think Jack Ruby,the gun man who killed Oswald had Mafia connections but I think Ruby was enraged by the death of Kennedy and in a fit of temper along with patriotic vengeance decided to execute Oswald.

I cannot believe some dodo bird gave me the old t.d while I remain without this option.

I don't think we'll ever really know for sure, and his autopsy reports have been sealed for 99 years.

I do believe however Oswald was the "patsy" in this murder, that higher ups were involved..or possible the mafia

My opinion is....'he' was recruited by the 'Mafia' (paid contract) and then eliminated by Jack Ruby to cover up any chance of disclosure/connection etc - who was then 'himself' ermm....taken care of - so's to hide the link too the Mafia. All the official info on the event was hidden/destroyed by the american government....covering up all 'genuine' leads and possible answers to that event.



I believe the Mafia were given the 'contract' by political/capitalist factions who were/would be inconvenienced by JFK continuing policies and actions - the Kennedy's were a politically hated family by by a huge % of very powerful people - JFK's entry into the 'White House' was based on out-and-out vote rigging etc....and 'he' made/had far too may enemies in all levels of americas rich society....he was only the 'pretty boy President' to the public masses - he was a political cancer within american politics in general.....as indeed most of them were/are now - 'he' was an out of control womaniser who brought 'shame' on the office of president - just like Clinton who was a carbon-copy of JFK and followed in his footsteps.



His policies were all about....do as I tell you - not as I do.....the 'now adopted' (so-called) democracy peoples policies of all world leaders.....as JFK said...'Ask not what your governments can do for you - ask what you (peoples) can do for your country'....the 'start' of the collapse of democracy in america and the western world which has continued ever since.!!



On the basis of probability - as all legal decisions are made - without defining proof - Oswald was not working on his own....that's just the american government hoping to bury the whole event and the reasons for it....JFK's brother 'Bobby' met his demise the same way and for the same reasons.....upsetting/challenging and the 'none compliance' of the 'Establishments' polices in america.



As no out-right-proof exists now - the above is a reasonable opinion (as good as the rest) on this subject....nothing is ever as is explained by politicians.

It was a long time ago.No-one seems to kill important people any more these days,do they. It was my first day on the crane at 18 when Kennedy was shot in Texas in 1963. Mother woke me up to tell me.

As the guy they said killed him was him self shot later it seems no-one to do with it is still around?

Oswald - maybe others involved also. Don't think we will ever really know for sure. It was a terrible tragedy.

No one seems to REALLY know. Some people even think it was a conspiracy.
