The US Central Intelligence Agency is no stranger to conspiracy and allegations of corruption. Across the globe, violent coups have been orchestrated, high-profile targets kidnapped, and world leaders dispatched at the hands of CIA agents. During the 1960's, on domestic soil, the methods used to protect their interests and themselves, at the expense of the American people, were no less ruthless.
In CIA Rogues and the Killing of the Kennedys, Patrick Nolan fearlessly investigates the CIAs involvement in the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy and Senator Robert F. Kennedy - why the brothers needed to die and how rogue intelligence agents orchestrated historys most infamous conspiracy.
Nolan furthers the research of leading forensic scientists, historians, and scholars who agree that there remain serious unanswered questions regarding the assassinations of John F. Kennedy, fifty years ago, and Robert F. Kennedy in 1968. He revisits and refutes what is currently known about Lee Harvey Oswald and Sirhan Bishara Sirhan, and offers listeners a compelling profile of the CIAs Richard Helms, an amoral master of clandestine operations with a chip on his shoulder.
Bolstered by a foreword by Dr. Henry C. Lee, one of the worlds foremost forensic authorities, CIA Rogues and the Killing of the Kennedys is an unmatched effort in forensic research and detective work. As the 50th anniversary of the JFK assassination approaches, Nolan has made a significant contribution to the literature on that fateful day in Dallas, as well as shed light on that dark night at the Ambassador Hotel. Listeners interested in conspiracy, the Kennedy family, or American history will find this audiobook invaluable.

I'm listening to this on Audible. Very thorough and detailed. Lee Harvey Oswald and Sirhan Bishara Sirhan were pawns in an evil scheme. If even half of it is true, I don't know what country I'm living in. Its really chilling.

People tend to believe whatever they hear first, but sometimes its flat out wrong.

(17,832 posts)I don't know whose bullet killed RFK. But according to this book, there were others with guns in the kitchen that night. I don't have a conspiracy of my own, but I'm open to hearing from those who do serious research.

(22,974 posts)And over 70 witnesses said Sirhan fired while 1 to 5 feet in front of RFK, yet the autopsy reported that RFK was shot three times in the back, including a wound behind his ear that had powder burns, indicating a shot fired from within an inch or so. No witnesses said Sirhan was at anytime behind Kennedy or within that close of range.
I don't know who killed either man, but I do know the investigations were seriously flawed. Evidence was mishandled, witnesses were bullied, and there was a lot of pressure to close these cases expediently.
