Interesting theory about JFK's assassination
Posted: Thu Dec 27, 2018 7:14 am
In 1992, a book was published by Howard Donahue, a man who is very experienced with guns, entitled Mortal Error. In it, he proposed a theory contrary to the conventional story that Lee Harvey Oswald killed JFK, and also contrary to the tinfoil hat conspiracy theories that Kennedy's death was an organised hit by the deep state. He proposes that Kennedy's death was an accident, with the shot that killed him coming from George Warren Hickey Jr., a Secret Service agent, who misfired.

The series of events is as follows: After the first shot which hit the street was fired, Hickey turns completely around and acquires Oswald on the sixth floor of the school book depository building. His turned head is documented in an AP photograph by James Altgens. Hickey reaches for the AR-15 under the seat, releases the safety and begins to lift the gun. The second shot is fired by Oswald, hitting the president and Texas Governor John Connally. The president's car and the follow-up car containing Hickey suddenly speed up. This is attested to by Secret Service agent Clint Hill. Agent Hickey, who is unstable because he is standing on the cushion of the seat, rather than the floor of the car, begins to fall back due to the acceleration of the vehicle, pulling the trigger of the AR-15. The gun is pointed toward Kennedy at that instant, and the bullet strikes him squarely in the back of the head.
