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 husband’s 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 state’s governor and senator, completed Mr Kennedy’s 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.

Wow, bother of her children completely stabbed her in the back.

Caroline released the tapes.
Oh those wacky Democrats!
Yes, she released the tapes. You don’t think that’s a betrayal, considering her mother left instructions that they wait 50 years? (for money)
This wasn’t the betrayal I was talking about by her son. I meant how he befriended and got into bed with the pornographer who published illicitly taken naked photographs of his mother. You think that’s normal?
According to the article, permission for ABC to release the tapes was a successful bribe to stop the network from running the Kennedy miniseries. What a sad sick twisted family.
This just doesn’t make sense — on the face of it.
Who cares?
I care. There’s no way Johnson wasn’t in the loop somehow.
Lyndon Johnson was white trash.
I`m always entertained by conspiracy theories that claim (fill in the blank) conspired with LHO. Nothing in Oswald`s background showed he was anything but an anti-social borderline nutcase who had a good aim.
Didn`t Jackie at one point also acknowledge it was Oswald when she talked about the irony of JFK`s being assassinated by a low-level communist and not over his stances on civil rights?
Well aren’t you special.
JFK is still alive and living with Elvis and Michael Jackson.
Which leaves unanswered: Has Irene Dunne what Nathalie Wood?
What’s your problem, noob?
Jackie O stories remind me of the 2008 0bama campaign.
Remember how the MSM kept mentioning “Camelot” to give Omoslem that JFK aura?
They really jumped the shark trying to portray the obese Moo-chelle (aka Chewbacca) as the “new” Jackie Onassis!
Then, Chewbacca started wearing exact replicas of Jackie O’s dresses during her junk-food binges. Except 76 sizes bigger.
