JFK Part Two: Deniably Plausible | #407

Wondery | RedHanded
About this episode

The report into Kennedy's assassination brought in a new era of mistrust in the government... and that was just the beginning. Because if you look for even a second – the official version just doesn't add up.

In this second part, we take a closer look at Lee Harvey Oswald's shaky history, meet JFK's other worst enemy (the Mafia), and, finally decide: what do we think really happened that day?
