The mystery of what happened to President Kennedy's body after his assassination stands as one of the most disturbing chapters in American history. In this riveting conclusion to our JFK series, historian Jack Stanley unravels the ghoulish and bewildering events surrounding Kennedy's autopsy that suggest a sophisticated cover-up of the truth.
Stanley meticulously details how Kennedy's body apparently traveled in two different caskets—the bronze casket seen by the public and a shipping casket that arrived at Bethesda Naval Hospital via helicopter. Drawing on decades of research and newly released documents, he explains how the autopsy itself was compromised from the start, with evidence suggesting the body was altered before formal procedures began to support the official narrative of shots fired only from behind.
The infamous "magic bullet" theory comes under particular scrutiny as Stanley demonstrates its physical impossibility. "Houdini couldn't have done this better," he notes of the bullet that supposedly changed direction multiple times while causing seven wounds between two men. Even more disturbing is his compelling case that Lee Harvey Oswald never fired a shot, but was instead set up as a "patsy" who was conveniently silenced before trial.
Perhaps most chilling is the fate of Kennedy's brain and other crucial evidence that mysteriously disappeared, likely dropped into the North Atlantic inside the bronze casket on Robert Kennedy's orders—a final act of protection by a brother determined to preserve JFK's legacy.
Stanley connects the assassination to Kennedy's peace initiatives that threatened the military-industrial complex, including his American University speech that Khrushchev had printed in Pravda and the subsequent nuclear test ban treaty. These represented a dramatic shift in Cold War relations that ended abruptly with his death.
