Assassination conspiracy theory.

Here is something of interest in the John F. Kennedy assassination case. In 1963, minutes before the assassination, a telephone company employee in California heard a woman say something on the line.

A whispered warning from an Oxnard area telephone predicted President John F. Kennedy would be killed only moments before he was shot in downtown Dallas yesterday.

A woman’s voice whispered to two General Telephone Co. operator supervisors about 10:05 a.m.: “The President will be killed at 10 minutes after 10.”

Moments later the same voice told the supervisors, “It won’t be 10 after 10, it will be 10:30.”

(*) The listening employee was Ray Sheehan, the director of the telephone company’s Oxnard, California office. He was working the lines because of a strike. He said the call “had to come from his office’s service area of Oxnard, Port Hueneme or Point Mugu.” (†)

The basic trouble with this is the lack of much additional information. With just this information, we can’t make the case that there was a conspiracy to kill the president.

Some conspiracy theories attached to this report are not backed by evidence. (‡)

Other conspiracy theorists, like Gary Wean, say that they have some piece of important information. They would tell the world, but they can’t for fear of being killed themselves. (§) Let’s assume that is true. The best solution for anyone in that position is to just publish whatever it is you have to the world. You can publish in a newspaper, a magazine, or on the Internet. Once the secret is out in the world, there is no reason for the bad guys to kill you. In fact, killing you after you publish would make them look even more guilty. Therefore, publish what you’ve got, assassination researchers. That’s the best way to be safe.
