In an explosive new book, The JFK Assassination Dissected, the 90-year-old expert says forensic evidence shows two gunmen killed the president as he rolled through Dallas’ Dealey Plaza in an open-car motorcade on Nov. 22, 1963.
But the key evidence — JFK’s brain — is missing!
Wecht first outlined his conclusion at a 1978 congressional hearing debunking the Warren Commission’s 1964 findings that Oswald, a former U.S. Marine marksman and Soviet Union sympathizer, was solely responsible for killing Kennedy and fired three shots from the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository overlooking the plaza.
While Congress ultimately determined there was a conspiracy surrounding the president’s death, U.S. lawmakers ignored Wecht’s science-based testimony about ballistics and Kennedy’s head wounds, which proved JFK wasn’t just shot from behind.
