On the evening of June 16, 1999, John F Kennedy Jr, along with his wife Carolyn and his sister-in-law Lauren, went missing during a flight from Fairfield, New Jersey to Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts. Kennedy was piloting the plane, having gotten his license the previous year. Four hours after departure, the Coast Guard was notified that the plane, a Piper Saratoga that Kennedy had purchased two months earlier, had not arrived at Martha’s Vineyard.

The following day, debris from the plane and a suitcase belonging to Lauren were discovered floating in the water near Martha’s Vineyard, and the Coast Guard issued a statement that they were preparing for the worst. On July 19, pieces of the fuselage were located by sonar, and on July 21 the bodies of JFK Jr, Carolyn and Lauren were recovered from the ocean floor, still strapped into their seats.

It was front page news, a national tragedy, and another chapter of the Kennedy Curse.

However, the theory that John F Kennedy Junior is secretly still alive is extremely widespread within QAnon. While the idea is perpetually ridiculed by most of the original Q promoters, and was even rejected by Q themself, influencers who rose to prominence after 2018 commonly include the JFK Jr theory in the canon they sell to their own followers. While exact numbers are hard to judge, there is an great amount of evidence that among the rank-and-file followers of the QAnon conspiracy movement, it finds majority acceptance. Like frazzledrip or adrenochrome, it is a core component of their mythos without ever being specifically advanced by Q. To the contrary, unlike frazzledrip or adrenochrome, Q has expressly denied the theory is true, to no effect.

4. Kennedy died in a tragic accident

It's not mysterious.

He was inexperienced, not instrument-rated, flying in low-ceiling/low-visiblity conditions that were beyond his skill level.
When the ocean and the (overcast) sky start to visually merge in front of you, it's very easy for your brain to trick you about whether you are flying at a constant altitude or descending.
The nose of his aircraft dropped subtly, and over the span of a few miles, he flew into the water at at 120mph.
It happens all the time to rookie pilots.
