The Girl On The Stairs
[My search for a missing witness to the assassination of John F.Kennedy]

Ernest Barry
2010

On November 22,1963 a young Victoria Elizabeth Adams stood behind a fourth-floor window of the Texas School Book Depository in Dallas. She watched as John Kennedy was murdered in the streets below. Then, with a co-worker in tow, she ran down the back stairs to get outside and determine what had happened.
At that moment, her life changed forever.
The timing of her descent posed serious problems for the Warren Commission's agenda that Lee Harvey Oswald was the gunman. If she was telling the thuth, Miss Adams was on the same stairs at the same time as the escaping assassin. Yet she had seen and heard no one. When she testified, she was discredited, humiliated and branded a liar. Told she had simply erred and came down those stairs later than she thought, Miss Adams begged to have her story corroborated by her co-worker of by a timed test conducted to determine her accuracy.
Instead, she was ignored.
Knowing the truth and now fearing for her life because of it, she went into hiding, content to die with her secret knowledge.
With a background as an investigative journalist, the author began his search for Miss Adams in 1967. It took him 35 years to track down this elusive witness but when he did, the truths behind Miss Adams were finally revealed.
This is the story the government didn't want you to hear and actually fabricated evidence so you wouldn't hear it.
Now, it can be told.

The Kennedy Assassination - Beyond Conspiracy
Jennings Peter
ABC News
DVD - 2003

Utilizing modern technology, computer animator Dale Myers created a digital simulation of the only known film of the murder, a 16mm home movie taken by Leon Zapruder, a bystander that filmed the fatal shots. Then Myers matched this digital film to a three-dimensional computer model of Dealey Plaza which he created that reconstructs the plaza exactly as it appeared at the time of the murder. The resulting digital animation allowed Myers to re-create the exact viewpoint from any perspective within the plaza at the moment and finally provide concrete evidence of whether or not Oswald was a lone assassin or if a conspiracy actually existed. Also examined in this excellent DVD is new evidence discovered years later on an audio tape from an open police microphone at the scene and other theories that circulated including Communist ties and mob involvement in the assassination.

And he describes the intensely private first lady making her first-ever political appearance with her husband,  just months after losing a newborn baby.

The Kennedys
[The conspiracy to destroy a dynasty]
Smith Matthew
2005

Conspiracy book.
From back cover:
"THE KENNEDYS uncovers the truth behind the greatest conspiracy story of the twentieth century: the devastanting plot against America's first family. Mindblogging in its implications, the conspiracy aimed at changing the direction of American politics but went much more further, altering the political direction of the whole world.
In the view of the conspirators, John F.Kennedy should never have become President. His plans to put the needs of the people before those of big business were intolerable. There were fears that he had a socialist streak which may well be identifiable as communist. From the moment he took office, he was on his way out. It was only a question of time.
This is a story of hatred, revenge and murder that was covered up by stark fear for may years.
THE KENNEDYS is an unbelievably dramatic, dynamic and awesomely gripping work that will shock and enlighten many."

Craig John R. - Rogers Philip A.
1992

An original conspiracy book with a different theory on JFK Assassination (even if not very credible in my opinion).
According to the authors a look at the assassination of John F. Kennedy offers evidence that places Charles Rogers--a psychopath wanted for the murder and dismemberment of his parents in 1965--at the site of the crime.

The Mind of Oswald : accused assassin of President J.F.Kennedy
Holloway Diane

The People vs The Warren Report
Remington Rodger A.
2002

This writing is by a late-comer to literature of the JFK assassination. It began as fascination with problems perceived in the methodology of the Warren Report, which he photocopied in 1995. Most troublesome was reconciliation of the single bullet theory with the phenomenon of common sense. Since 1997 that problem has generated an attempt to understand why defenders and critics of the Warren Report cannot persuade the American people to embrace differing conclusions and methodology. This writing offers suggestions for future historians who will surely undertake to write history of the JFK assassination.

[The Investigation of the Assassination of President John F.Kennedy: Performance of the Intelligence Agencies]
AA.VV.
1976

The Senate Select Committee to Study Governmental Operations with Respect to Intelligence Activities, known as the "Church Committee" after its chairman Frank Church, conducted a wide-ranging investigation of the intelligence agencies in the post-Watergate period.
The Church Committee took public and private testimony from hundreds of people, collected huge volumes of files from the FBI, CIA, NSA, IRS, and many other federal agencies, and issued 14 reports in 1975 and 1976.
This Senate Select Committee "Book 5" report (issued in April 1976), often referred to as the Schweiker-Hart Report after its authors, discusses the performance of the CIA and FBI in the investigation of the assassination of President Kennedy. The report analyzes the general question of whether and by what degree the CIA and FBI withheld relevant information from the Warren Commission, which was charged with investigating Kennedy’s murder. Among the information unknown to the Warren Commission (except Commissioner Allen Dulles) were the CIA’s plots to kill Fidel Castro. With the public disclosure of these plots, the idea that Castro “struck back” gained prominence with many at the time. The Committee found that the evidence “indicates that the investigation of the assassination was deficient” and “impeaches the process whereby the intelligence agencies arrived at their own conclusions.”

The Warren Commission Executive Session Transcripts
AA.VV.
1964

The Warren Commission met several times in executive session. The transcripts of these sessions were made public over the years and are now available in complete unedited form. The early transcripts include discussions of "problems" facing the Commission, including the allegation that Lee Oswald was a paid FBI informant.

The September 18 document is in the form of minutes rather than a transcript. At this meeting Senator Russell voiced his doubts about the report to be issued, and tried to get a dissenting opinion included. He relayed his frustrations in a phone call to President Lyndon Johnson that evening, a tape of which is now public. The minutes give no indication of the conflict at this meeting, other than a vague and cryptic sentence on the 3rd page.
