Why is it so important for some people that the Kennedy assassination

[Spider Jerusalem]

48. I found the opposite to be true, personally.

I saw "JFK" in the cinema when it came out. Then I read Jim Garrison's "On the Trail of the Assassins". And Groden and Livingstone's "High Treason". And a few other books that dealt with the case from the POV of conspiracy. I believed there was a conspiracy for years. Then I read the Warren Report and Vincent Bugliosi's "Reclaiming History" and discovered all sorts of things that were left out of those conspiracy-oriented books, or deliberately distorted and misrepresented. For instance, conspiracy authors claim a majority of witnesses in Dealey Plaza heard shots from the grassy knoll. That's just not true, on the basis of witness testimony and interviews; the majority of witnesses heard shots from the area of the TSBD. Witnesses saw a rifle in the sixth-floor window. Some of those witnesses saw the man holding it, not just the barrel protruding from the window. Conspiracy authors never mention that. Or the fact that Oswald left his wedding ring and nearly every penny he had in the world on Marina's nightstand. All the evidence omitted from the standard conspiracy versions of the assassination points to Oswald.
