The conspiracy behind the death of President John F. Kennedy has brought many speculation and many different opinions. From conspiracies about the grassy knoll and the number of shooters that were there that day at Dealey Plaza. Many of the controversy and conspiracies came out after the Congress's House Assassinations Committee report 1976 stated that there may be cause for conspiracy.
With the silent Zapruder film the public could only see Kennedy react to two shots. Reports from witnesses though said that there were at least three shots fired. A couple days after the assassination there was they found that a motorcycle Policeman inadvertently left on his microphone. This sound recording adds to conspiracy because there were reports that there were four shots fired after listening to the recording. Coinspirators claim that the fourth shot came from the grassy knoll behind the white picket fence. The Moormans photo helped in the conspiracy because of the angle of photo at the grassy knoll. After closer inspection and clearing out some of the background noises it was confirmed that there were only two shots. The supposedly fourth shot was actually background noise and there was no fourth shot.
The Congress's House Assassination Committee was put together to investigate the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. and John F. Kennedy. In the conclusion of the report the facts the they present leave a lot of room for speculation. There were claims of people getting paid off and cover ups. These were facts up they were not presented in the best way so people took these and made them into conspiracy theories. After the report came out and conspiracies blew up the Committee came out with statement that said there was no conspiracy. The intent of committee was to silence all conspiracies but in fact they only made them explode even more. The American public believed that the government was involved in a cover up.
After the dust has settled there were many different sides and angles to this part of the conspiracy. With the evidence presented it is easy to believe there was a cover up. with more research and more in depth research the answers will be more clear.
