On November 22, 1963, John Fitzgerald Kennedy, the thirty-fifth President of the United States, was assassinated at the Daley Plaza. The assassination of Kennedy still remains a mystery. Throughout this essay the assassination will be evaluated and examined to help get a better idea of what happened and who did it.
The main theory and the theory that was documented by officials is that a single assailant committed the assassination of Kennedy: Lee Harvey Oswald, a twenty seven year old ex United States Marine. The Warren Commission, also known as the assassination committee, investigation reports stated that Oswald fired three shots from the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository. One of the bullets strayed and hit James Togue, a nearby standing pedestrian, in the cheek. Another bullet struck JFK and Texas Governor John Connally, who was seated in front of JFK.

Kennedy’s reactions after being shot show that he was hit from the front, because he grabbed the front of his throat indicating that he was shot from the front. ” (Lane Plausible Denial 115)
