2)  A real life example of how this topic is relevant is that the assassination of JFK conspiracy theory mirrors certain aspects of the 9/11 trade towers conspiracy theory. Such as how people are willing to overlook evidence to further their beliefs and how it’s possible the government could be covering up a real conspiracy. How certain authoritative individuals in their respective fields say that certain aspects of the official stories couldn’t have possibly happened the way they were portrayed to and how eyewitness accounts we’re ignored and wildly vary?

3)  My favorite part of doing research on the assassination of JFK was going through the unusual facts because some of them are quite interesting. One of the more interesting facts I found is that JFK was the fourth US president to be assassinated, the first being Abraham Lincoln. They were elected 100 years apart and both were succeeded by vice-presidents with the last name Johnson.

4)  What I am most likely to remember from this research was what I found on JFK’s supposed confessed killer, mafia hitman James Files, who is the only person to ever confess to the assassination. I found this information very interesting as he accounted for a lot of what happened by firing from the grassy knoll and leaving the shell casing on the fence behind it with a bite mark of his own in it. Which was found buried 4 inches in the ground with a human bite in it. It’s also possible this was an attempt to get a lowered sentence for a double police officer homicide he was involved in but quite a strange stance to take for making a deal.
