Jackie Onassis believed that Lyndon B Johnson and a cabal of Texas tycoons were involved in the assassination of her husband John F Kennedy, explosive recordings are set to reveal. The secret tapes will show that the former first lady felt that her husbands successor was at the heart of the plot to murder him.
She became convinced that the then vice president, along with businessmen in the South, had orchestrated the Dallas shooting, with gunman Lee Harvey Oswald long claimed to have been a lone assassin merely part of a much larger conspiracy.
Texas-born Mr Johnson, who served as the states governor and senator, completed Mr Kennedys term and went on to be elected president in his own right. The tapes were recorded with leading historian Arthur Schlesinger Jnr within months of the assassination on November 22, 1963, and had been sealed in a vault at the Kennedy Library in Boston.
The then Mrs Kennedy, who went on to marry Greek shipping tycoon Aristotle Onassis, had ordered that they should not be released until 50 years after her death, with some reports suggesting she feared that her revelations might make her family targets for revenge...

Jack Ruby:
He was a Mafia Lieutenant, a llow life scumbag whose job was to take care of details like planting the bullet on a stretcher at Parkland Hospital, keep Oswald in line.BEFORE the assassination etc.
When things went very wrong as Oswald was NOT killed in the theatre, he had to kill Oswald to silence him as the Mafia would hold Ruby responsible for the failure.
The Mafia wanted the Kennedys as much as LBJ and Hoover did.
IIRC, LBJ was on the verge of being arrested for murder for hire or some such.
Whoever was responsible had the authority to change the route in Dallas and to instruct the driver to slow down at the precise moment of triangulation. Also, these people could control the autopsy, law enforcement “clean up” operations (investigate for yourself just how many witnesses died after the fact and how), and the Warren Court “investigation,” complete with Arlen Specter’s magic bullet theory.
Everyone around my family thought LBJ was behind it all the way. After all, Kennedy was in Texas to help repair controversy within the Democrat party as it existed at that time.
I was never certain until I actually saw a copy of the Zapruder film. That was years later.
But, I knew the US was different after that because I lived it. It was most definitely a coup d’etat.
Wow - just in time to take the focus off the 18 month affair JFK had with intern Mimi Alford and the contemptuous, humiliating way he treated her - Camelot must be served.....
