TESTIMONY of JACQUELINE HESS Ms 454 expert. It may be that the deaths are within the normal rates, despite the appear- ance of an epidemic, or it may be that they are radically out of line . Mr. Chairman, Jacqueline Hess, the committee's chief of re- search for the Kennedy assassination investigation, has been in charge of the mysterious deaths project. Her report, on which she is prepared to testify today, contains the findings of the project. It would be appropriate at this time, Mr. Chairman, to call Ms. Hess. Chairman STOKES . The committee calls Miss Hess. Stand and raise your right hand and be sworn. Do you solemnly swear that the testimony you are about to give is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you God? TESTIMONY OF JACQUELINE HESS Ms. HESS . I do. Chairman STOKES . Thank you. You may be seated. Ms. HESS . Mr. Chairman, members of the committee . The issue of mysterious deaths, that is, that a statistical)y improbable number of individuals with some direct or peripheral association with the Kennedy assassination died as a result of that assassination, there- by raising the specter of conspiracy, was first brought to national attention as the result of a promotional campaign for the movie "Executive Action" which was based on Mark Lane's novel, "Rush to Judgment." Mr. Chairman, I would direct your attention to JFK exhibit F-544 and ask that it be admitted into the record at this time. Chairman STOKES. Without objection.

  • Oliver Stone's J
    WWhheenn TTrruutthh IIss SSttrraannggeerr TThhaann FFiiccttiioonn… Behind Oliver Stone’s J.F.K. (1991) by Nick Zegarac Disclaimer: For those new to The Hollywood Art, this is not a political series. It is a repository for history and content relating to great motion pictures of the past and present and, on a more personal note, is dedicated to those iconic figures of the silver screen which have brought some special focus and meaning into its’ author’s life. However, the following article involves Oliver Stone’s movie J.F.K (1991), a film and a topic that begs further understanding of the actual events that took place before and after the assassination of President John Fitzgerald Kennedy in Dealey Plaza on Nov. 22, 1963. It is my sincere hope that history will not be quick to judge this article as a further contribution in support of mere conspiracy theories, lone gunman mythologies or even fictionalized urban legends that continues to surround that assassination. What follows then is a retrospective of history itself – some will undoubtedly argue, as clouded through the lens of a propagandist film maker, but that this author would suggest derive far more credence, respect and investigation than history has had the time or interest to make clear to the American public to date. It is in support of deriving clarity from the facts as presented in Oliver Stone’s film and through a sincere investigation of other informational and archival materials made available elsewhere, and with the humble and utmost esteem and reverence extended to the Kennedy family, for what is undoubtedly a far more intimate - rather than national - tragedy, that this article appears.

    A88 MADISON AVENUE/NEW YORK, N.Y. 10022/TEL: 212 PL 9-3232/ESQUIRE HOLD FOR RELEASE FOR NOVEMBER 15, A.M. NEWSPAPERS POSSIBLE SECOND KENNEDY ASSASSIN APPEARS IN NEWLY DISCOVERED PHOTOGRAPH NEW YORK, November 15 ---- A newly discovered photograph of what may be a man aiming a rifle at President Kennedy's car at the site of the assassination appears to confirm the existence of an assassin now at large. (Please request Photo # N X P 1404338 from United Press International, New York Bureau.) The photograph is printed for the first time in the DeceMber issue of Esquire Magazine published today. It is an enlargement of a frame from an 8-mm. color movie film of the assassination made by Orville Nix, a resident of Dallas. Six frames from the film were published in the Warren Commission's volumes of exhibits but not the frame from which this photograph was made. If the picture is indeed of a man aiming a rifle at the President, it would support the widely-held theory that more than one man was involved in the assassination. The theory of two or more assassins conflicts with the findings of the Warren Commission that the assassination of President Kennedy was the work of one man, Lee Harvey Oswald. The Nix film was found in the UPI film library by an independent investi- gator of the assassination who was particularly interested in one of the frames, because it showed more sharply than any other frame a mysterious object behind the wall on the grassy knoll. When a film specialist enlarged the frame, it became clear that the object was a vehicle, and it appeared that a man was leaning against it and aiming a rifle at the President's car.

  • Reasonable Doubt: the Single Bullet Theory
    Reasonable Doubt: The single bullet theory Assignment Select one claim that was discussed in the movie, and analyze that claim using Toulmin’s framework. For example: Identify and discuss the strength or correctness of the claim that: 1. Governor Connolly was shot by a second bullet; 2. The mafia shot JFK; 3. Castro was responsible for JFK’s assassination; 4. The CIA arranged for JFK’s assassination; 5. The Pentagon ordered JFK’s execution; 6. Cuban anti-communists arranged for JFK’s death; 7. The Soviet Union’ KGB engineered JFK’s assassination. 8. Select any other claim from the information provided. Identify and explain clearly the parts of the argument, and evaluate the strength of the argument as a whole. You do not need to believe the argument. You are evaluating its strength. Your evaluation should be around two pages long, so select a claim that is not so large as to require a book-length essay to explain. Include a cover page, outline, body, and a works cited page.

  • The Rambler Man
    THE RAMBLER MAN One wouldn't consider it much of an obituary. A life reduced to eleven paragraphs in The Dallas Morning News. The commentary is not remarkable for a person of the prominence of ex-deputy sheriff Roger Craig. Not for the employee the Dallas County sheriff's office proclaimed "Man of the Year" in 1960. Roger Craig's popularity grew among Kennedy assassination investigators when he maintained he witnessed an event involving a Nash Rambler station wagon in Dealey Plaza on November 22, 1963. He spoke freely about the incident, disputed details of the assassination with superior officers, lost his job, aided in Jim Garrison's probe of Clay Shaw, became the friend of several researchers' and died by his own hand on May 15, 1975. Sadly, Craig's father discovered the body in a back bedroom of the small house on Luna Road in Dallas, this a few minutes after the old man had returned from mowing his lawn. There was a note. The physical and mental anguish resulting from a car wreck in 1973 and a shotgun wound to the shoulder sustained in 1974 was too much. Roger was sorry for what he had to do but he just "couldn't stand the pain." In the quiet of the Dallas Public Library I reviewed the eighteen year old obituary. I remembered the story of Craig's sighting of the Nash Rambler station wagon in front of the Texas School Book Depository on November 22nd. His account became important when a claim arose that Marina Oswald's friend and confidant, Ruth Paine, owned a similar vehicle.

    JFK By Oliver Stone & Zachary Sklar Based on books by Jim Marrs & Jim Garrison FADE IN Credits run in counterpoint through a 7 to 10 minute sequence of documentary images setting the tone of John F. Kennedy's Presidency and the atmosphere of those tense times, 1960 through 1963. An omniscient narrator's voice marches us through in old time Pathe' newsreel fashion. VOICE January, 1961 - President Dwight D. Eisenhower's Farewell Address to the Nation - EISENHOWER ADDRESS EISENHOWER The conjunction of an immense military establishment and a large arms industry is new in the American experience. The total influence - economic, political, even spiritual - is felt in every city, every statehouse, every office of the Federal Government... In the councils of government we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist... We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted... Script provided for educational purposes.
