Suffice it to say that the Warren Commission Report was a work of fiction that followed their mandate to conclude that Lee Harvey Oswald acted as a lone gunman when the president was killed. Chief Justice Earl Warren did not want to get involved, but he received the “treatment” from President Johnson and had to say “yes”.

To insure the results were favorable to the government, President Johnson assigned Allen Dulles, the former CIA director fired by the dead president to guide the committee in the proper direction. The FBI and CIA presented the commission with all the evidence they felt they needed to support the Oswald was the lone shooter scenario.

Congressman (and future president) Gerald Ford admitted he altered the autopsy report and otherwise looked after the interests of the FBI. Dr MT Jenkins, an emergency room doctor did not agree with the autopsy report. Mary Kaye Spencer who developed the autopsy photos said the ones the commission had were not the ones she developed. Lt William Pitzer, who filmed the autopsy died in manner to look like a suicide two years later and the films disappeared. The pristine bullet found by Secret Service agent Paul Landis on an empty gurney could not possibly have gone through two bodies of flesh and bone and remained in that condition. All the problems were overlooked when the report was presented on the autopsy preformed under the direction of General Curtis LeMay, an outspoken Kennedy critic.

Counsel to the commission, Arlen Specter of Philadelphia, looking to advance his political career turned out the be the team player they needed when he came up with the single bullet, or “magic bullet” theory that defied he laws of physics.

President Nixon called the report BS. Columnist Dorothy Kilgallen called the report laughable. Both paid the price. There were several CIA spooks on Nixon team of “plumbers” when they got caught breaking into the Watergate office of the DNC. Dorothy Kilgallen, who interviewed Jack Ruby and was about to “break the case wide open” died in a clumsy attempt to look like suicide.

The Warren Commission would not have told it was Lee Harvey Oswald if they didn't want us to believe it.

The part of Earl Warren in the JFK film was played by Jim Garrison.

Breach of Trust: How the Warren Commission Failed the Nation and Why
by Gerald D. McKnight

The Warren Commission's major conclusion was that Lee Harvey Oswald was the "lone assassin" of President John F. Kennedy. Gerald McKnight rebuts that view in a meticulous and devastating dissection of the Commission's work.

The President's Commission on the Assassination of President Kennedy was officially established by Executive Order to investigate and determine the facts surrounding JFK's murder. The Warren Commission, as it became known, produced 26 volumes of hearings and exhibits, more than 17,000 pages of testimony, and a 912-page report. Surely a definitive effort. Not at all, McKnight argues. The Warren Report itself, he contends, was little more than the capstone to a deceptive and shoddily improvised exercise in public relations designed to "prove" that Oswald had acted alone.

McKnight argues that the Commission's own documents and collected testimony—as well as thousands of other items it never saw, refused to see, or actively suppressed—reveal two conspiracies: the still very murky one surrounding the assassination itself and the official one that covered it up. The cover-up actually began, he reveals, within days of Kennedy's death, when President Johnson, FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover, and acting Attorney General Nicholas Katzenbach all agreed that any official investigation must reach only one conclusion: Oswald was the assassin.

While McKnight does not uncover any "smoking gun" that identifies the real conspirators, he nevertheless provides the strongest case yet that the Commission was wrong—and knew it. Oswald might have knowingly or unwittingly been involved, but the Commission's own evidence proves he could not have acted alone.
