John Fitzgerald Kennedy, thirty-fifth president of the United States of America, was well known and admired for his charm, intelligence and charisma. He was a beloved figure in the public eye. Yet on the 22nd of November, 1963, Kennedy was shot and killed whilst riding in the back seat of an open top limousine motorcade to arrive at the Dallas Business Center. As the motorcade made a turn onto Dealey Plaza, on the corner of Houston and Elm Street, shots were fired, injuring Governor Connally and killing the president. Eighty minutes after the assassination Lee Harvey Oswald, an employee at the Texas School Book Depository, was charged for the assassination of Kennedy yet he himself was shot and killed by local Dallas night club owner Jack Ruby.

             So why would anyone want to kill him? What could someone have against him that he had to be assassinated in front of so many citizens? These, along with many other questions about the assassination have confused many. .

             After Kennedy's death was announced, newly appointed President Lyndon B. Johnson, organised the Warren Commission, led by the chief justice of the U.S Supreme Court Earl Warren. It was an investigation into the assassination which concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone assassin and that he fired three shots from the window of the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository. Over the years however, after thorough investigation into the Commission, an overwhelming amount of forensic experts have disputed the W.C's findings. Many inconsistencies have been detected throughout the report including the murder weapon, ammunition, shots fired, timing, and inconsistencies with official autopsies, witness testimonies and claims of tampered evidence. .

             One of the main hiccups noted in the W.C is the single or ˜magic bullet' theory. The W.C concluded that one bullet had passed through Kennedy, entering his back and exiting his throat and that the same bullet passed through Governor Connally's torso, wrist and stopped, embedded in his thigh.
