Removal of Evidence and Witnesses?

Some claim that important pieces of JFK assassination evidence were tampered with from the start. The crucial Zapruder film, which, whilst not being the only footage taken of the moments around the shooting, is certainly the clearest, is not in itself entirely reliable. There have been several assertions that important frames have been removed from the publicly available versions, or that critical minutiae may in places have actually have been scratched from the original emulsion. The late and influential conspiracy theorist William Cooper claimed that some of this occurred to conceal detail showing that the driver of the limousine, William Greer, had himself fired one of the deadly bullets by quickly turning around with a gun from the front seat while the other shots were incoming. This is not widely agreed with, but it adds yet another layer of potential intrigue. Other visual evidence, such as autopsy photographs purporting to show the damage to the president’s skull, has also been called into question, with loud contentions that the released images do not show the real injuries, but have been switched to cover up proof of the additional gunmen.

One useful witness who might have revealed more would, of course, have been Lee Harvey Oswald, but he was himself infamously – and expediently – shot dead just two days after his capture, at the hands of outraged nightclub owner Jack Ruby, supposedly striking a vengeful blow on behalf of the citizenry. But, just as some say that Kennedy himself had been left oddly vulnerable by an unusual lack of protective agents on the day of his shooting, so too has concern been raised at the seemingly lax security at the police headquarters from where Oswald was being brought out to be taken to the county jail. With a melee of jostling press reporters and cameramen waiting for him, this apparent carelessness allowed Ruby simply to step from the crowd and shoot Oswald in the stomach at point-blank range.

Far from being an incensed member of the public, it has been alleged that Ruby had personal connections to Oswald and was party to inside knowledge of the JFK assassination plot. It is worthy of note that Rose Cherami, a self-confessed drug addict who had worked as a stripper for Ruby, told police in advance of 22 November that she knew there were plans to kill Kennedy. She also claimed, in the aftermath of both shootings, that Ruby and Oswald had once had a gay relationship. Doubters poured scorn on her stories, but her sudden ‘accidental’ death under the wheels of a car two years later made some take them more seriously.

Ruby himself was quickly convicted of Oswald’s murder and might have added important details of his own at a second impending appeal trial, having hinted that he knew far more than he had been allowed to say at the first. However, he apparently died of cancer in late 1966, before he had the chance. At a televised news conference in
