JFK: Who, How, and Why
Solving the World’s Greatest Murder Mystery
You have heard the “official account” that JFK was killed by three shots fired by Lee Harvey Oswald from the 6th floor window of the Texas School Book Depository. But did you know that he was in the doorway watching the motorcade as it passed by, which means that he not only cannot have been “the lone gunman” but can’t have even been one of the multiple shooters?
And did you know that there are more than 15 indications of the Secret Service setting JFK up for the hit? that the driver, William Greer, pulled the limo to the left and to a halt after bullets had been fired to insure he would be killed? that he was hit at least twice in the head during that interval, which was so explosive it had to be removed from the Zapruder film?
The body was stolen from Parkland Hospital, was physically altered by the Navy Medical Officer in charge of the autopsy, the X-rays and photos were manipulated to conceal the true causes of his death and the Zapruder film was massively revised.
At last, after more than 50 years, we are now publishing the solution to the greatest murder mystery in history!

Judyth Vary Baker, an American artist, writer, poet and social scientist, is the author of Me & Lee (2010), which recounts her affair with Lee Oswald the summer before Dallas, David Ferrie: Mafia Pilot (2014), and the futuristic Letters to the Cyborgs (2016). Her relationship with Lee has been reported in Part 7, “The Love Affair” (2003), of the Nigel Turner TV documentary, The Men Who Killed Kennedy and in Dr. Mary’s Monkey (2007) by Edward Haslam. 60 Minutes conducted the most extensive investigation in its history for a feature about Judyth and Lee, but the project was censored and never broadcast for political reasons. Judyth is currently working on three new books, the first about Lee Harvey Oswald’s writings (tentatively, The Mind of Lee Harvey Oswald) the second about her close friend, Lt. Col. Dan Marvin (a Green Beret who worked as an assassin for the CIA) and a third book about social systems and linguistics. She is also coauthor with Edward Schwartz of Kennedy & Oswald: The Big Picture (2016-2017).
Ralph Cinque is a retired chiropractor who graduated from UCLA and Western States Chiropractic College. He has been a student of the JFK assassination since 2000. In 2012, he co-founded the Oswald Innocence Campaign (OIC) with Jim Fetzer and Larry Rivera. Centered around Oswald in the doorway, OIC has grown to become the largest JFK research and advocacy organization in the world. In addition to his contributions to establishing that Lee Oswald in the doorway of the Texas School Book Depository (TSBD) as the motorcade passed by, Ralph has been at the forefront of the discoveries that the footage of Billy Lovelady standing outside the TSBD after the shooting and of Lovelady sitting at a desk in the Squad Room at the Dallas Police Department (DPD) are fabrications and that alterations were made to Wiegman, Towner, Hughes, and Bell films to conceal Oswald’s presence in the doorway. His most recent research has been on the identity of the man who shot Lee in the basement of the DPD.

Ole Dammegård, receiver of the Prague Peace Prize 2016 as well as an expert on false flag operations and International assassinations, has spent more than 30 years on solving major murder mysteries like the assassination of the Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme, which has turned out to be a very dangerous task and has cost the lives of two dear friends. His two-volume work, Coup d’etat in Slow Motion/Statskupp i Slowmotion, provides an intense study of one of the biggest murder investigations in modern history (with some 900 pages with lots of photos, documents, detailed maps and images). What is still claimed to be the deed of a madman has turned out to have its roots within the international military complex and world finance at the very highest level. The book has been called “a true Bomb of Truth.” Ole’s extensive research has revealed incredible links to other big political “events,” such as the deaths of JFK, John Lennon, Robert Kennedy, Che Guevara, Salvador Allende, and Pablo Neruda as well as the sinking of m/s Estonia, killing almost 1,000 people. He is also the author of Shadow of Tears, Re-Mind Me, The Elusive Enigma, A Global Tour of Terror Parts I-II, and the children’s book Yolanda Yogapanda, translated to multiple languages.
Jim Fetzer, a former Marine Corps officer, has published widely on the theoretical foundations of scientific knowledge, computer science, artificial intelligence, cognitive science, and evolution and mentality. McKnight Professor Emeritus at the University of Minnesota Duluth, he edited what Vincent Bugliosi has described as “the only exclusively scientific books” on the death of JFK: Assassination Science (1998); Murder in Dealey Plaza (2000); and The Great Zapruder Film Hoax (2003). Jim has chaired or co-chaired five national conferences on JFK (Minneapolis 1999, Dallas 2000, Dallas 2001, Duluth 2003, Santa Barbara 2013). The founder of Scholars for 9/11 Truth, his latest books include The 9/11 Conspiracy (2007), The Place of Probability in Science (2010), Nobody Died at Sandy Hook (2015), And I suppose we didn’t go to the Moon, either? (2015), And Nobody Died in Boston, either (2016), America Nuked on 9/11 (2016) and From Orlando to Dallas and Beyond (2016).
Richard M. Hooke, a student of anthropology at UC Santa Barbara and former computer systems analyst for Bank of America, is also a writer and researcher regarding the death of President John F. Kennedy. He has done brilliant work in identifying the man in the doorway and George H.W. Bush at the Dal-Tex in Dallas. Among his publications are (with Rod MacKenzie) Letter to MacKenzie (2014), (with Larry Rivera) The Man with the Mona Lisa Smile (2014), Letter to Beverly Oliver (2015), (with Rod MacKenzie) The Men that Don’t Fit In (2015) and Twelve Shots that Shook the World (2016). Richard has been celebrated for his posters of Lee Oswald and his studies that demonstrate the points of similarity between Lee Oswald and Doorman, who was caught in a famous photograph taken in Dealey Plaza during the shooting by AP photographer James “Ike” Altgens.
Douglas P. Horne, among the most widely respected of all students of the assassination of JFK, graduated cum laude from Ohio State University in 1974, with a B.A. in History. He served for 10 years as a Surface Warfare Officer in the U.S. Navy and then worked for the Navy for 10 more years as a civilian. In 1995, he joined the staff of the President John F. Kennedy “Assassination Records Review Board,” and rose to the position of Chief Analyst for Military Records. In that capacity, he focused on the medical evidence surrounding the JFK autopsy; the Zapruder film; and ensured the release of military records on Cuba and Vietnam. In 2009 he published the extensive five-volume work, Inside the Assassination Review Board: The U.S. Government’s Final Attempt to Reconcile the Conflicting Medical Evidence in the Assassination of JFK, which documents the U.S. government’s coverup of the medical evidence surrounding JFK’s assassination and the alteration of the Zapruder film of President Kennedy’s assassination.
Peter Janney grew up in Washington, D.C. in the 1950s and 1960s. His father Wistar Janney was a high-level CIA officer who was recruited by Allen Dulles in 1949. The Janney family socialized with other CIA families including Mary and Cord Meyer, the Angletons, Desmond FitzGerald, Richard Helms, and many other Washington dignitaries, including Ben and Tony Bradlee. Peter and Michael Meyer, Cord and Mary’s second child, became best friends in childhood and went to the same school together. After Michael’s accidental death in 1956, Peter grew closer to Mary Meyer. When he learned of her death in 1964 and then became aware of her affair with President Kennedy in 1976, he began to suspect that Mary’s murder was not “a random act of violence,” but something much more sinister. Increasingly haunted, fueled by the emerging evidence of conspiracy in JFK’s assassination, he embarked on a mission that would take over 30 years to complete. Finally reckoning with his own father’s complicity in the CIA’s cover-up of the JFK assassination, as well as the murder of Mary Meyer, Mary’s Mosaic is the story of a truly remarkable woman who helped JFK turn away from the Cold War toward world peace initiatives, before both would be assassinated by elements of the National Security apparatus and the CIA. A graduate of Princeton, Peter earned a doctorate in psychology at Boston University, followed by an MBA from Duke University. He has been a practicing clinical psychologist, health consultant, and lecturer for over 35 years. He lives by the sea in Beverly, Massachusetts.
Clare Kuehn is a Toronto native with a U.S. citizenship as well as Canadian, because of her patriotic American mother, who always kept her citizenship. She grew up with critical thinking lessons, because her mother was a college teacher of philosophy of science and logic. She is more inclined to the arts, but with solid training in interdisciplinary history and studies in thought, through university and beyond. She has applied herself to studying modern cases of intelligence services and mass media lies, after focusing on older cases for so long. She discovered novel lines of reasoning about physical and testimonial evidence in the case of JFK’s death and 9/11 and applied this rigor to studying modern cases of intelligence services and mass media lies, after focusing on older cases for decades. During The Vancouver 9/11 Hearings in 2012, she presented Dr. Judy Wood’s case for the demolition of the Twin Towers in contrast to the mini nuke hypothesis. She assists others who have specific case interests to determine the best evidence and reasoning about various claims and government lies and cover-ups. She maintains a blog at Youcanknowsometimes.blogspot.com.
