Someone said once: if you want to hide something from somebody just place it right in front their eyes! The facts are so simple and obvious that it’s unbelievable. I believe this guy.
I almost do. The pointless lie/"forgot what I said" part about the 15k-30k payment is strange. Plus, being a huge gun and ballistics guy, a lot of what he's saying about the guns are true, except how he explains the said cartridge being used. Most of what he said about the 221 fireball cartridge is widely exaggerated, and having a friend who makes him "special bullets" or "mercury rounds" is where he lost me. Sounds good I guess unless you know more on the topic than he does.
Heck the JFK assassination was in plain sight to the point of I don’t get y people would still think that Lee Harvey Oswald assassinated him when the video clearly shows back and to the left. Oswald was shooting from behind JFK not in front.
@@omgreptiles8241 if you read Files book Primary Target, he talks about the guy who prepared the bullets. His name was Wolfman and he gives more details about that.
I’m 100% convinced this gentleman is telling the truth as he knows it. He speaks of minor details describing the event and atmosphere that are not important to his testimony. Everyone is entitled to believe what you want, this is legitimate IMO.
They just came up with this for two reasons: demand from trump to declassify.. and Candace Owens interviews with USS Liberty.. which was in 1967, but the same era. Things are coming out.
@@narveenaryaputri9759 This guy was first interviewed in 1994 and that interview has been publicly available ever since then. WTF are you on about? So many f'ing crazy people in the comments section of any video like this... Candace Owens and Donald Trump.... give me a f'ing break... I hope you are on medication.
If you want to know what really happened to make "things come out"... and by "things" I of course mean bullshit and lies... it was most likely noted crackpot Oliver Stone's very popular but very stupid 1991 film JFK... that film came out in 1991... this guy probably got a copy on VHS while in prison in 1992 or 1993... then first lied about being the mythological shooter on the grassy knoll in 1994. No big mystery here. The FBI investigated the claims, determined that they were horseshit, and so the man wasn't charged with assassinating a president as he would have been if there was even a shred of evidence to back up his fabulist fantasies. It's not illegal to lie, though... so... guy decided he liked the attention... and continues to lie to get more of it.
That is no evidence at all. If the guy knew someone who knew someone who knew and he overhead some details here and there he had enough to do weave a tale.
He's not stumbling over the answers or hesitating before he answers them, he answers quickly and precisely. And he doesn't look nervous at all. he seems quite sure of himself and confident like someone who knows what he is talking about. seems credible to me.
Files story has been around for a while with other interviews and a book he wrote. I’m surprised how many people are just finding out about him now. Just goes to show what effort was made to bury his story.
Operation Zapata, AKA The Bay Of Pigs, failed because McGeorge Bundy COUNTERMANDED JFK's order to destroy Castro's last 3 combat operational jets. The next day, those 3 jets destroyed several B-26s, and sank at least 2 ships. Type in L Fletcher Prouty explains The Bay Of Pigs, and Vietnam
I was 15, sitting in my high school English class, when someone came in the door and said the president had been shot. We were all stunned. School was dismissed, and nothing has been right in this country ever since.
I have read countless books on this subject and attendend a lecture by Robert J Groden who wrote "High Treason" about the assassination as well as reopening the House Assassination Committee. He mentions many of the same people that Files does. Another Mafia connected guy also said what Files said that the assassination was supposed to be called off, but someone pushed ahead with it any ways. Either this guy knows the key players and was involved or he has a photographic memory and has studied everything about this case. I find him to be one of the more fascinating persons regarding this case.
Watch Danny Jones podcast with Felix Rodriguez. According to him the second shooter was a sniper from the Cuban military and was in Dallas that day. Felix Rodriguez is ex CIA that is known for a bunch of crazy stuff. Some good and some pretty terrible.
He was on another show, on tubi interview. He sounds very connected to the Chicago outfit with his recall of Melrose Park incidents. Chicago was the strongest mob in the country and they seem to have the contract for it.
Years ago when I was been trained as body guard for our Jamaican Prime Minister by Cubans operatives, I was told that President John F. Kennedy was shot from the grassy knoll and not by Lee Harvey Oswald ,so I believe this account😢
Oh. Since you "was been trained as body guard"....for the Jamaica guy....."by Cubans operatives", it is clear that ol' James Bond was a fairy princess compared to you. Thanks for your professional opinion.
@@roberthenry9319 what do you think is fake, his being a body guard of his training by Cuban operatives ? The latter was and is a common source of revenue and of political influence to the Havana mafia.
Oswald was the scapegoat because he got busted delivering a turbo cancer cuban cigar to Castro. He was caught in Mexico City and knew too much. He workef on top secret science programs that created turbo cancers
The “smoking bullet of proof” is that fact that he bit the shell casing and placed it on the fence, and it wasn’t disclosed until after his confessions that they had the shell casing with bite marks on it. And there is a photo of him standing behind the fence.
@@dab. was never proved just as lone shooter was never proven - too many witnesses claimed to have heard more than 3 shots two of which in rapid succession impossible for lone gunman with bolt action -
Evidence proved he was in Chicago during the assassination and when NBC, planning a TV show on him, confronted him with this he tried to tell them he was being confused with his own twin brother, who didn't exist.
What is more interesting rotting in prison. Or telling stories and getting a lot of attention. He has nothing to lose so why no lie? Clearly the guy has little morals. telling a lie to be a big shot fit perfect with his character.
Mr Files has been trained, many months by the JFK-Murder-coverup Administration, … the payment for this to a dying man is other means that money.. of cause
35 years of psychology here, the hardest thing to tell when doing body and characteristic movements is, "memorizing a script" and "memory" are both pulled from the same cognitive zone. depending on how good someone is at acting out a part, they can literally emulate every single symptom and trait of someone telling the complete truth. This guys normal demeanor is that of a poker player, so he's also the perfect subject to use for an operation which might involve a coverup or snow job. The people who do this aren't stupid! And the people they choose are extremely talented in the areas of deception and lying. One of my catches here is, this guy recalls the story just a little too good. Just a little too fluid. Now, that could be he's a very detailed individual with a great memory recall, or it could be that he's practiced this information over a long standing period of time and can lay it out in such a way where it sounds truthful and from experience... My second catch is the tilted head to the left during the entire interview. But it seems like during certain questions, he tilts it much further than other times... This can be a sign of deception, or a subconscious effort to create distance between you and the person you're attempting to deceive. It can also mean you're fatigued or the subject matter and the having to deceive is taxing and so tilted head is a sign. I watched really close to see if the head tilt got worse with tougher questions and it did. So I think there is something there.... Direct confrontation is the emotion one feels when they're purposefully trying to mislead someone. I just feel like there is an act of deception here. Honestly, I know there's a LOT of information about JFK's assassination that the world doesn't know, and I have a feeling when it finally comes to light, it will be a SHOCKER/BARN BURNER!! So I was keeping a very open mind here, trying to allow the information to lay over what I already know, to see if anything clicked... Here's what I will say... IF this guy is not the person who did it, you can bet at least one thing FOR DAMN SURE... He KNOWS the people who did! His story, although potentially fabricated, knows WAAAAAY TOO MUCH detail and nuances for it just to be his own... Somewhere, some entity has supplied him with a LOT of first hand knowledge. Which means, if he's not the one, he is still ONE of the ONES who knows what took place.
Yours, are Fine observations I was a kid when this happened (72 now) nd was impacted in many ways. Eventually, through out the years, i read many books on this topic., well known ones too. Put all together (the books), these few interviews (2) are way better at illuminating the magnicide than anything else seen or heard. You'd be in accordance with me, that there are only 2 answers; either he did do it, or he did not do it. My take is somewhat different from yours., even though I find yours very compelling., (though a little bit too convenient). I'd say this the real deal. This assasin, is the murderer. One of the two. ...SIMPLY.
Outstanding analysis, now please tell me I am not crazy and tell me Jonbennet Ramseys father is lying based on pretty much any of his interviews, especially pre-2000's interviews. Its obvious to me, but lots of people don't see it since the recent netflix special.
I have to agree with your evaluation. My ex wife was a social worker in training in 1983 and introduced me to the NLP book from Richard Bandler ( I think that is his name ) That book was co authored and I think the other guys name was Grinder. Anyway. it was at that time I began to realize how much work it is to be a professional liar for the simple fact that so many "tells" will appear when a person is lying and hasn't been practicing how to lie convincingly. Bombards website with Mandy breaking it all down is a great place to see deception and truth deciphered in real time. so, yes... Files was a little bit heavy on the details... the other thing that seemed off was biting on the 221 Remington bullet casing and leaving it at the scene of the crime... what so called professional would do that?
@chrispatriot I was very intrigued with your analysis and I actually agree with you on this. I'm not trained in any body language analysis or things like that but I am a people watcher if you will and have been from a very young age. I was 7 years old when President Kennedy was assassinated and I do remember my mother having to come down to the school to get me to bring me home as they released all the kids early that day. They never told us why but when I got home I remember sitting in front of the TV with my Mum and watching History unfold. The only other moment in History that comes to my mind as being so vivid and affecting my life as much as this would be the Apollo 11 moon landing in 1969. I will probably watch this one or two more times but no matter what conclusion I come to I find this an intriguing and fascinating video and love reading the comments. The one thing that I feel very certain of is that, just like Jack the Ripper, this is one piece of History for which we will never know 100% of the truth.
Body language is all horse sh**. Nobody knows why a person is leaning his head to the left or right, looking up or down or in a stare-off eye to eye. Those who think they can are worse than armature fortune tellers. Police interviewers are the worst, falsely reading meaning into ever motion of a person. A person may have a personal idiosyncrasy. or tell as in poker, but that's as far as it goes.
He sounds credible- either he is telling the truth or he put on an Academy Award performance - I think James is the real deal. Mr. Files was paroled in 2016
He certainly speaks with clarity and without pausing to think. No umms or ahs or eyes rolling up. I'm not a body language expert but I would like to hear from someone who is.

@thereanimator926 your talking to an AI bot amd watching disinfo lolololol
have figured for a while, safe enough in the pen I guess, he shot along with either Tippit or White @ Knoll or pergola, both crack shots , both in the loop one airborne one marine corps. Those vets didnt f up. Headshot had to be clean, but someone missed, maybe Stiles??? FFD 'Dont shoot Jackie' was the last walky talky msg apparently
This is chilling! I was only 5 years old, but I remember that day and was terrified when we were sent home early from school and people were crying. I could not sleep for days. I even read "Death of A President" in high school for a book report. Files answered every question without stuttering, but when he mentioned Jack Ruby before his name even entered the questioning, that really got my attention and explained the reason for his death as well.
I was 7, and remember being sent home at 2:10 - and the following day watching tv when Oswald was shot. No one i know bought the Warren commission report.
I remember that day, I was at work and we had the radio on and all of a sudden the news came out and said President Kennedy had been shot down in Texas. Everyone was stunned and people starting crying and we didn't know what happened because President Kennedy was taken to the hospital. It was the worst day and people started crying. We didn't find out he was dead until hours later. He was the first President I ever voted for, people of my age back then loved JFK he was young, he was a Catholic which most of us were, and I have never ever forgotten that day. Later we found out he died and we cried.
The guy struggled to maintain eye contact when asked questions. I am not sure if he was a shooter but I do believe there was more than one and the US government when connected somewhere possibly with the CIA as Bush was in Dallas !
This guy says "I've never given up anyone in my life and I won't start now" yet he names a lot of people. So many people have clamed to be DB cooper, how many cons clamed they did something that was news worthy just to gain notoriety? This guy knows what he is talking about but so do a lot of people that have studied the event that took place on 22 November 1963 in Dallas.
@@larryalbany9527 Yes, they were diseased. So its OK to snitch on the dead? Credibility has to do with consistency. I don't care if this guy is telling the truth or not, what I hear is inconsistency.
You have endless time to rehearse your story when you're in prison. One problem: trajectory. JFK wasn't shot in the side of his head- he was shot from the front. That's why the back of his head was blown out.
This could go down as one of the most important confession testimonies in history BUT we need a real investigation to make sure his story is credible especially as there's plenty of others who have claimed to be the shooter too.
There have been two separate investigations already, one by the FBI and another by renowned private detective Jules Krull. Both have determined Files to not be credible.
My Father was investigator for a major city homicide and armed robbery divisions he did extensive training to spot someone lying. He watched this before he died and said he is the greatest liar that he ever seen. He showed absolutely no signs of being untruthful. Absolutely no signs in his face. You can’t see his body but it don’t appear any movements from body. For him to be this detailed without something to refer to he would have to had rehearse this extensively for a year everyday there are too many details now my dad said he’s possible a distraction for the truth but he would be the greatest most rehearsed liar in the history of modern day crimes .!He also added that it wouldn’t be far fetched for that to be possible considering the severity of this crims
If he was stationed in Laos, why does he keep saying "Latosions"??? They are referred to as Laotians or Lao when talking about people. I really find his story very interesting but can't say I believe him.
Agree I was in Laos !! In this century several times, doing visa runs from Thailand to Vientiane and Luang Prabang. Beautiful country bombed to crap by the USA.
@@davidwilfong8028 The 82nd wasn't, I was wondering if he is trying to say he was in Special Forces, which were in Laos in 59, to train the Lao fighters.
I recently saw a more recent interview from this man. Not 1 time did this man change his story. I believe he only tells 95% of the story and leaves others who were involved out. Chances are he might not know everyone else who was involved. The terms he uses to describe the people indicates those were the terms he used at the time. He's 100% legitimate.
@@andisuge *Ignore that "Jack*ss", he must be a paid shill by some one to come here and discredit probably the most credible account ever told about the JFK assassination.*
All that proves is he has a good memory. Actors memorize scripts it's what they do. If someone who worked with Laotians can't pronounce Laotian something is wrong with the story. I have known, been friends with, and worked with Laotians. They won't let you pronounce it wrong more than once trust me. 100% Bull Kaka.
Sounds pretty credible but changing the amount of 15 grand to 30 grand makes me think there might be another party involved that he doesn't want to mention for whatever reason.
A lot of people involved. Many potential “shoe-ters”; (sorry, YT’s “policies”)and many who got a shot off. I’ve believed this guy and that he was a big part of it. There may be a few discrepancies but this guy has always struck me as NOT lying. 🤷🏼♀️ I could be wrong. The whole thing is sick and disturbing. I’m not clutching my pearls…I do know that life and politics are difficult and complicated. Still? This “event” and the whole Kennedy political saga and Kennedy filth…the CIA, LBJ, Hoover, Nixon, The Bush’s involvement, etc. All of it? Very disturbing. Disgusting. Shameful as a nation.
@AB-un4io 61yearslater and no one knows who killed JFK? Ridiculous. No front shooters , no conspiracy . You need to study this case more carefully . How was Bush involved ? Where was he on 11/22/63 ? My guess is you’ll answer incorrectly. Files is a liar .
There were 3-4 shooter teams but no one really knew what the job of the others were as they had their own orders, but they all knew they were part of the operation standard Tactic's!
You must have missed it. They were going to give him 15 up front, he refused, saying the 15 which was still a lot of money at the time, wouldn't have been significant to him. He went along with it for free. It wasn't until, a good amount of time went by, when Nicoletti gave him the full 30, stating it was for the Dallas job.
Fascinating interview, but I'm disappointed that the 2nd most important question (maybe the 1st) was not explored. Why would the mob want JFK killed? It was RFK who was doggedly pursuing the mob. Killing JFK would only make RFK more relentless in his pursuit of the mob. If the hit was orchestrated by the CIA, who were seriously in the business of assassination at that time, would they really need the help of the mob? Collaborating with the mob could easily implicate the CIA in the future. As more & more mob guys were called to testify for a variety of government panels, there was always the chance that bits & pieces of info linking the CIA to the mob & the assassination would be exposed. Mr. Files admits to a serious dislike of JFK but he did not initiate the hit, or even know what he was involved in until a day or so before the hit. Amazing to think that the very public assassination of one of histories most famous & well documented people still defies logic & absolute truth.
Mr."DasKitten".....I'm a serious JFK student. You bring up a good point about why kill John, When Bobby was inverstigating. Get ahokd if "The Reporter Who Knew Too Much " by Mark Shaw. It answers all of your questions. This guy , on the surface seems credible. I'll take a few days to digest this information but hes NOT the first guy to come out of the woodwork. JRS.
Back during the campaigning jfk was actually behind. Prescott bush's bou h t and paid for politicians Richard Nixon,the then vp and previously senator was leading. Joe Kennedy went to the crime bosses in chicago and boston and a couple other democrat cities. He told the heads of the crime families, if they could help jfk win the election, he would get his sons to look the other way on organized crimes. The opposite happened. As files states the bay of pigs was a clandestines opperation. Both the Cia and mob were involved. The mob wanted certain casinos in Havana. Much time and money was spent. Jfk learned of the plsn to assassinate castro which would have caused khrusc to launch nuclear weapons at the US. Thus at the last moment kennedy canceled the air support. That act, as Files states, cost a lot of lives. Msny of those lives were in organized crime. So besides losing just men, the mob lost a new gambling resort. But none of this could have gone down without top governmental approval. That came from lbj who hates kennedy. He gave the go. He assigned Warren, someone kennedy fired, who hated jfk, to oversee the Warren commission, along with dulles, another disgruntles former g man.1:20:10 hev😮
It was to send a message to their father. He made the mafia alot of promises if they helped John get elected, John didn't want to hold up his end of the deal.
The way he describes the shots, its exactly how it appears in the Zapruder footage. Kennedy's head jerks slightly forward suggesting a shot from behind less than a second before his head violently jerks back and almost explodes, suggesting a close range frontal shot.
This means you totally fell for this guy's b.s. Come on, @alexgaras. You are much too smart to do that. Think through what he is saying step by step. None of it makes any sense whatsoever.
@alexgaras1573- Yes, of course, Scorsese could make a film about it and it would be titled “MEAN STREETS IN DALLAS 11-23-1963”. Scorsese would play James Fields. Funded by the mafia.
@@roberthenry9319 I watched the entire thing and found him highly credible. He was obviously obsessed with Nicoletti, why would he implicate the person he most respected in the world in this? That’s what would actually make no sense. This is 1000% more believable than the government line.
I watched a number of interviews with James Files a while back and found him convincing for a while. He mentioned he had been in Vietnam in one interview and was asked if had he met Colonel Fletcher Prouty? He said he had and described him as "a great soldier." Colonel Prouty began as a cavalryman but quickly transferred to the Army Air Corps and was a pilot for years. At the time Files may have been in Indo China, Colonel Prouty was working in the Pentagon doing logistics and other secretive things- he was never a combat soldier as he was in USAF. This one comment suggested to me that Files could be making things up- although he clearly knows about weaponry, bullets and the anatomy of hits and assassinations.
"This one comment suggested to me that Files could be making things up." This is an admission of bias when someone discounts relevant details because of a questionable irrelevant detail that dovetails down a rabbit hole about another man's career. It is comments like this, whether from a government agency or not, that increase Sutton's credibility. This is illogical reasoning. Maybe a good distraction for some. Try again and rebuke a relevant portion of his testimony instead of reaching down some rabbit hole that no one understands. KISS
@@daworldsyuthofdafuture It was on YT- one of a couple that were here nearly ten years ago. I know that Files mentions being in Laos- doing training when there were very few US personnel there- late 50s. Col Prouty has mentioned being in Vietnam with Ed Lansdale and buying a gift for one of the Diem brothers for him. Now it appears that Lansdale was in Saigon from 1954 to 1957- so that is before James Files was in Laos and Prouty has mentioned flying over Vietnam- north and south without concerns of being shot down. It is possible that Files and Prouty met but Prouty's skills were not those of a soldier which is why I questioned the response Files made. That alone does not mean his narrative is to be disbelieved but it got me wondering and I think that being a bit forensic about things is good- in all walks of life not just in the world of the Kennedy assassination. Clearly Files is massively knowledgeable in this arena on many levels and in areas that most have little or no knowledge and undoubtedly he was connected to key mob figures.
I forgot to mention - the owner of the Texas School Book Depository Building was Ed Clark who'd also paid off the Bankruptcy expenses for LBJ to get his ranch back so he could look like he owned his own home, especially as he was going to be standing next to JFK in the 1960 POTUS Race. Ed Clark was known as The Oil King of Texas, The Texas Oil King, et al. This was because he had a very high rate of success when drilling for a good wet pocket. Ie, he was in that era, the richest man in the World supposedly. He also ran for President as the Libertarian Party Candidate in 1980. Also, Marcello took obvious offense at being basically hijacked by the Kennedy Govt as he saw it & at least once dropped out of the USA deep in the jungle of Guatemala. It's not that hard to picture the degree of resolution for a Mafiosi worth between 15-30MILLION US DOLLARS having to dig & scratch his way back out of the jungle in street clothes probably & arrange to get back to the US where the vast majority of those investments were located- all the while, thinking resolutely 'I'll kill him! I'll kill him! Both of them.' With that disposition, resources & demeanor, willing to do what it takes to be in the top of 'a' business - it's not difficult to see such a slanted individual making plans once away from the mosquitos. Obviously, LBJ was beholden to Clark so if/when he was aware of JFK's plans for a 2nd Term - as re eliminating the Oil Depletion Tax Relief (gift) to Big Oil - Ed Clark was told of that same plan. That gave him a reason but I don't want to speculate on that re motivation for Clark. However, as stated, that 27% was a very Big Deal for people like Ed Clark, Ross Perot - an informant had mentioned that a man named R Parrot was talking about killing JFK. If I don't speak French & know how accents affect pronunciation: Perot & 'Parrot' are quite possibly the same. At 16:18(±) re the "Fireball" that's a hotrodded Remington ' Varmint Killer '. Short end to end, scope mountable & re "one shot"- the advance of twisted rifling meant it could be a reliable source for more than a single use of a high load Ammunition. Obviously the accuracy level is reduced as re most equipment when used after being adapted for maximum accuracy/efficiency.
@@aaronz7056 Evidence? You have to be kidding. You mean the mountain of false data the CIA and FBI built up, in many cases using a "double" who ran around saying he was Lee Oswald?
This is unbelievable .I can not believe after all these years. No one took him serious, and the no further investigations ever happened after this confession...
The government did not want to open that can of worms, cause then they would have to admit the warren commission was total bullshit and several agencies...CIA, FBI, mafia conspired to assassinate the president.
The magic bullet makes no sense any more. Since governor Connery is in the jump seat. He was in the passenger seat which the bullet was said to fly though. Yes history changed. There used to be four people in the car. Mrs Connery was with lbj
@@tukayz254Misdirect people? This isn’t even viral. No one watches this stuff anymore. No need for misdirection. Nearly everyone (I’d say about 98%) of the people KNOW our Govt did it. No need to misdirect. The Govt came out 3 years ago about aliens being real and no one cared. They can income out and say “we iced JFK” and no one would be surprised at all. No need to “misdirect” anyone. Even in the 80’s, it wouldn’t have been a big ass deal. We know the Govt did it.
In The Zapruder film, one can clearly see that President Kennedy was struck in the front right side temple as allegedly Oswald shot him in the back of the head. All bystanders said the last 2 shots came close together as BAM BAM BAM. The last 2 shots were both the head shots. In William Manchester's book, "The Day Kennedy Was Shot," President Kennedy's head exploded and spewing large gushes of blood and brains spurted out of his head soaking Jackie Kennedy and the seat and walls of the interior of the Limousine and kept largely gushing like a fountain until his blood pressure dropped to zero. President Kennedy was dead almost instantly. He was gurgling and his mouth was rapidly moving right after he was struck. His eyes were both open very wide and fixed as he bled to death with his head on his wife's lap. Horrid to see as SS agent Clint Hill saw as he climbed on the back of the limousine to shield everyone. President Kennedy's head was half blown open as brain chunks and rapidly flowing blood flooded the back seat and the floor of the limousine. as well the motor bike police windshields, and the suits of the driver Bill Greer and Roy Kellerman as well as spewing all over Clint Hill as he jumped on the speeding up Limousine. I do not attempt to be gory, but this is what truly happened.
Too many ppl and organisations involved in wanting JFK gone. CIA, FBI, Big Crime, Cubans, Russians, political opponents, etc. And all that, plus a botched whitewash of an investigation afterwards. A perfect storm. And Oswald was only a convenient scapegoat. The truth lies far beneath a complicated mess that will probably never be cleared away.
Finally geez! Out of all of the shows, documentaries, stories etc, I never realized the angle of which this dude is speaking, So Oswald was telling the truth, he didn't shoot JFK .. Unbelievable ..
This dude was confronted with evidence he was in Chicago that day and he tried to pretend he was being confused with his own nonexistent twin brother, just before NBC cancelled the show they were planning on him. Watch the entire clip and Oswald only says he is a patsy in relation to being hassled by the police for having lived in Russia, and in fact he never tried to blow any conspiracy to anybody, including a live TV audience, never mind there's a mountain of evidence for his guilt anyway.
An extremely valuable document. It answers important questions that many people have been asking themselves for decades. And I'm convinced that this man is speaking the truth. I can spot a liar ten miles down the road and I've never been wrong so far. He doesn't speak the whole truth, out of concern for people still living, but he speaks nothing but the truth. He is totally convincing. Many thanks for the upload! 🙂
Project Hot Foot was a secret deployment of Army Special Forces teams to train Laotian forces from 1955 thru 1962. Files said he was assigned to the 82nd Airborne. He would have been at Bragg along with the Army Special Ops forces used in Project Hot Foot. He never said the 82nd was deployed. That could NOT be kept secret. However, he could have easily been attached to the Special Forces teams to fill a needed skill set. What gives me pause is that Files was born in 1942, making him 18 y.o. in 1959; essentially a “green” PFC. Hard to believe he would have attached at that age.
No 18 year old would be chosen for Special Ops. Watch the stolen valor videos by Don Shipley. If it happened, then his DD214 would show it and be easily retrievable. My bet would be that there is no such DD214. If he can't show his DD214 then the whole thing is Bandini Mountain.
We were overthrowing Syria and Iran at the same time in 59. So I can see him being in Laos. We needed people willing to go the work from other war torn countries we were involved with. It’s a simple war strategy when hiring death squads for proxy sabotage propaganda campaigns.
Okay same. Now what are all 3 of us watching that is similar for this to get dropped in the algorithm.. and i want to assume the 3 of us are watching things that some would side eye us if they knew
Awe, Jack Ruby! I found out about 11 years ago that my Uncle on my mother's side was a close friend to Ruby. That told me why my mother didn't want to be there in case something happened and would not let me see the President coming from Down Town.We pulled out just ahead of them and there were 5 Semi type shots that I remember hearing. But years later I did the research and found 6-bullet's fired. And Files was carring a briefcase.
Well, what do sixty years' worth of multiple investigations know compared with you, right? All credible ballistic, film, eyewitness, medical and forensic evidence clearly demonstrate 3 shots.
I was in Dealey Plaza approximately 2 years ago. The distance from the wall at the grassy knoll is ridiculously close, less than 50 yards. I was amazed that the news accounts of the assassination made it sound like an impossible shot, far from it. The shot from the 6th floor or the surrounding areas were not unusual. The fact that the motorcade drove at a low speed through this turn is one of the most glaring examples that this was arranged by the highest level of our own government, JFK wanted to get out of Vietnam, war is profitable. RIP JFK.
Not to mention, the rifle oswald had wasn't that accurate plus, had to be bolted with each round. Try getting off three accurate shots in 6 seconds with a moving car speeding up after the first shot
I've seen him on TV before and here on RUclips confessing. He's been saying this for a while now. Not sure why they're bringing it back up. He had information no one knew until the JFK files came out just recently. All his account can be corroborated with those files. I believe him.
@@LearningCurves123 He was a gopher for those around him. He knows the framework but he was not “the guy”. The guy never talked. He was a professional.
@@squarebale1 I believe it. He washed the cars, rims on the cars as a kid as he said in his interview, then goes on to say that he got into racing cars and driving for the mob. You move your way up when you make a name for yourself. Afterwards he started doing "jobs" for them. All of it is in the JFK files and can be corroborated. The positioning, the gun style/type, he knew who was on top of the "grassy knoll". The cop that was up there talking to two people was corroborated in the JFK files. He walked right past him with a briefcase. He's says the EXACT same thing in another interview. The information is too fluid, too fast to be "made up". Two interviews. Both exactly the same. No one would know all those details of the exact same thing in both without messing up your story at least once. He doesn't mess up. It was him.
This man may have taken a shot but the bullet that killed JFK came from the front and through the windscreen of the car and this shooter was like a military sniper marksman. I believe there were a lot of people with rifles in the ambush. It's a miracle only one man was killed.
I always thought that too... because bullets follow straight lines... if JFK was hit in the right temple from the right the bullet would have exited out the left rear of the head. But the huge exit wound is in the right rear. That means a bullet from the knoll would have entered JFK's temple and then made a right 90 turn. But If hit from the front, the bullet would have gone in the tight side and exited on the right side.
It literally struck him in the temple, just as this guy said. I am not saying for sure this is the guy, but there is no doubt where the head shot came from.
Yep Tom.. I think the shot came from behind the fence atop the gassy knoll. Hobos were spotted and told to leave near the RR tracks there as Dallas police came to the scene. A secret svc man testified at least 1 of those shabbily-dressed hobos had shiny new shoes, suggesting they were decoys or otherwise nefariously at the scene and not hobos at all.
I have 20+ years of mental health experience. And I fancy myself as being perceptive in reading people thru work and a natural gift. This man’s details tell me he’s been well trained. He also has extensive training in not missing details. This is high level training. Even that he’s working in accordance with some government agency he has been trained With the best we have in intelligence agencies. The 26:10 mark he makes mention to another event he was involved in. We all know about all the assassinations in the 60s so I’d venture to say he probably was involved with another assassination in the 60s
He is very anxious and has pressured speech. His presentation of information suggests it was rehearsed, but he is very bright. What did he get for this interview? Where is the FBI or, for that matter, any law enforcement? There is no way they wouldn't know about this "public" interview! I think he is on medication for a mood disorder. He could be telling the truth, more information is needed. Wow!
He says in the interview that the FBI had been to visit him. But see, the FBI has his military records and that’s probably why they didn’t take him serious. The 82nd wasn’t in Laos in 59. That’s the first hole in his story, and not the last one.
There's always multiple plausible theories provided in these operations to divide a consensus from ever forming to implicate anyone on the inside of a conspiracy. 2001 is a perfect example of this, as many theories except the one provided are correct. Many participated, but the driver was the one who was to make sure the job was completed. And that he did. Jackie wasn't crawling out the back to pick up brains. She did exactly what everyone one of us would do if you witnessed what she did
You’re wrong, it is one of the most tragic things ever filmed and sadly, there is no question that Jackie was desperately trying to retrieve parts of her husbands head from the trunk of the car. Not sure why you would say it didn’t happen but you are definitely wrong.
This is the first interview!! He said the same thing almost Identically in the second interview!! Sounds credible and he was very consistent in his explanation to all the questions posed to him!!!!
This guys story is solid this is the 2nd interview confession I've seen from JAMES FILES. BOTH INTERVIEWS WERE TAPED SEVERAL YEARS APART FROM EACH OTHER.
How did Nicoletti climb up in a building, shoot JFK, then somehow beat this guy to the car when file made it back to the vehicle? Dude must have been a world class sprinter…
Nicoletti was let in the Daltex building by Frank Sturgis he organised a room that was being renovated at the time so no one was on that floor they were let in and out through a fire escape at the rear!
He is the real deal. He talk about the bullet case bite marks. And there was one found on the floor years later under the picket fence that fits his description.
Good point! Because he made it up? Consider the exact position of JFK's heat when the final bullet hit him. draw a straight line from File's pretend position behind the picket fence. Now explain how the bullet blew out the lower right side of JFK's head and not the left side. This man is lying.
*That takes me to the question that shouldve been asked 'Did you bring your own gun & get your own bullets?' He could have been firing blanks & didn't even know it.*
@@thetruthchannel349ever fired a blank before? They don't look like real ammo, they don't sound like real ammo, and they don't recoil like real ammo. There is absolutely no chance whatsoever that a man like that could be firing blanks and not know it
He admitted to lying about the amount of money he received. His entire attitude changed. Something is off about his story. His expressions changed after the interviewer caught him lying. He got nervous from that point on. Some of you experienced with criminals may have caught that
BS story. Chicago mob telling a punk 21 yr old kid every detail of the biggest hit in history. He got out the army in 62 he developed these relationships all in a year lol
This biein fake or not, the shot that hit Kennedy in the right front side of his head is the biggest gaslight video in this century. To say he was hit in the head from the rear is a whopping lie.
@@user-bl6ne3hc6n People, even when being honest, will sometimes hesitate to search for the proper words. Meanwhile, if a liar has his story down pat, he might not hesitate at all. (And Files has had a lot of free time, to get his story down pat)
Once a prisoner? Learns there are MORE perks for someone, anyone? Who's killed someone famous? Everyone takes credit. Gives a first person account. Taken directly from the news. The true assassin feels left-out, ignored. A resentment builds.
So he shot the President with a .221 Fireball? The Fireball in 1963 was an experimental pistol that Remington was developing. I always found it implausible that Oswald got 3 shots off with a 6.5 Carcano. The Carcano was not the most accurate rifle of its day. Now, I’m expected to buy that Files hit a moving target with a bolt action pistol, after firing he was able to discern a piece of skull fly onto the trunk??? Sorry, I ain’t buying this, BTW, I’ve reloaded enough rifle brass in my day to know you’d need a hydraulic jaw to leave teeth marks in a spent casing. He says he killed Kennedy, then he scans the crowd with the 3x scope and see Frank Sturgiss. In 1994, the Federal Bureau of Investigation was quoted as having investigated Files' allegation and found it "not to be credible". Files was paroled and is still alive. Surprisingly he hasn’t been whacked for mentioning 3 Mafiosos in the interview…..
Ain't no way he's hitting a moving target with a scoped XP-100 pistol. Not to mention that the XP-100 would most likely be using a long-eye relief scope which have a really poor field of view even at low power.
Brass is a soft metal unlike steel casings. You definitely wouldn't need a press to dent them. I'm not saying you could easily crush it with your teeth, but you could definitely dent it. But good try.
Also, the fact that you believe the FBI about anything....especially JFK related is pretty wild. Theyre not smart people. Theyre certainly not honest people.
I’m a big historian. I love history and I have studied a lot about JFK assassination. That’s something that’s peaked my mind. One thing was said they call it the magic bullet and I believe it is a whole heartedly because there’s over 8 to 10 people that claimed they shot Kennedy so that bullet went through eight guns it must be a magic bullet. This guy says he did it. Another guy says he did it. Another guy says he did it, so they was playing like lacrosse one guy shoots the bullet to the other guy he put it in his gun shoots it to another guy and one takes puts in his gun and shoots the magic bullet, but you know they all got something in common. They all already in prison and serving life they gonna die in there. They have nothing to lose, so what is the worst to happen to him? They might as well become a celebrity sorta I am a special forces veteran who has overseas killed people and saw people killed on a daily basis. Some of the people we killed were bad very bad good people in a bad position. I don’t care how bad they were killing. Someone is nothing to brag about. It bothers me every day even the ones that were the scum of the Earth you still think about having to kill them so I don’t see why anyone would want to lie about killing anyone and especially not a president but somebody’s lying because I’ve heard of 8 to 10 people I’ve saw claim they killed Kennedy
@@timdavis5078 so many peeps on it no one knows which one actually fired the fatal shot. He believes himself and it matters but there were def more people there TO kill him than we know.
The lies/ distractions continue. You hear guys like " Files" befor. Look at the trees, that then were cut down., fools. Look at the published picture of Bill Grear ( limo driver ) in LIFE MAGAZINE from the Zapruder film as he blows Kennedy's brain out of his head. Then Bobby ! Denile ! Because you don't want to know. Jhonson, Hover , Bush forgot about the " trees". , check the records, documents, pictures, films.l I had a friend there that was told if he told what he knew, he would be put in prison !! Hugh ? 6 shooters. You all know now.
Jhonson hid behind his driver 4 sec. Befor the exicution started, ---- records. ---- no one knew the route has been changed. He left Ladybird on her seat, nice guy, documented records. How did Jhonson, Hover , Bush, know that Oswald shot somebody, they never met him ?
Of course he didn't wanna talk about it. Because THAT was the reason that Oswald was arrested - NOT for the killing of the president, as they didn't have evidence on which to arrest him at that point. And for whatever reason, Files doesn't want to tie Oswald in to the killing of JFK - which would make *particular* sense if Oswald's only purpose in the operation were for him to get his fingerprints on the depository rifle so that he could be framed for the crime. Files doesn't want to touch on it, because to touch on Tibbet would be to touch on his conscience (if he indeed has one) and to have to feel the guilt in being reminded that co-conspirator Oswald was made to be the fall guy. That'ssssssss all IF Files is telling the truth in the first place... 🤷♂
Funny that he says he hated JFK about the Bay of Pigs but he says his controller was David Atlee Philli[ps who was well know to have assisted in the Bay of Pigs... I'm not buying what this guy's selling
If dozens upon dozens of eye witnesses to the JFK assassination were ‘unlived’, or silenced by threats with in a couple of years after the event, what makes anyone think that the shooters involved, out lasted Oswald?
I believe Oswald was set up...... exactly as he claimed (just a patsy) I've been seeing that image of Oswald's face for 60 years now and I finally feel as if I know exactly what he was thinking as he's being dragged around Dallas PD. headquarters. It's a face of sheer disgust because he knows he's about to take the fall for a major assassination in which he was just a bit player. He's disgusted with himself for getting suckered into such a farce. Obviously I don't believe he was the main character in the assassination...... it's just an opinion, I wasn't there.
The "mysterious deaths list of witnesses" is a hoax started by a couple of grifters where everybody on it either had little or no connection to the case or else their causes of death were misreported to sound more "sinister." Watch the entire clip and Oswald only says he's a patsy in relation to being hassled by cops for having lived in Russia. In fact he never attempted to blow any conspiracy framing or sacrificing him to any cop, any member of his family, to the President of the Dallas Bar Association, or to a live TV audience of millions, never mind the mountain of evidence for his guilty anyway, starting with him being caught red-handed trying to murder a police officer.
Don’t be too quick to judge until you carefully watch the full video. Critical analysis and plenty of patience required before rushing to final judgment.
Here's final judgment: evidence proved he was in Chicago that day and when NBC confronted him with this he tried to pretend he was being confused with his own nonexistent twin brother. But sure, let's hear him out...
Pretty sure that’s all countries. If you live in America and you don’t like it. Please just leave. If you are privileged, go to a country with less and see how evil “this” country really is.
This country is not evil. If anybody is evil it's the people that use their influence and money to manipulate whatever they find nessasary to get the policies and regulations that benefits their agenda... Like Marxist like to do... like Soros and his kid like to do.
That video is the stupidest piece of lie-packed paranoid garbage ever made, showcasing one demonstrable liar and notorious grifter after another, and when it lectures Officer Tippit was shot just to provide body parts for Kennedy's autopsy (!!!) all you can do is laugh...
What was much talked about in circles back in the 1980s to 90s when this was going on was that this was a kind of a Psy-Op using James Files. Files had been trained and trained over quite some time to learn this story, detail by detail which I think comes across noticeably in the interview. His recall, particularly into detail and the way it is arranged perfectly in the timeline would be absolutely remarkable if this really were a convicted, mercenary style gun-for-hire who happened to have assassinated Kennedy 20 years before his claims first emerged and around 30 years before this recording. Files was asked if he had anybody coming in to help him prepare his testimony and he refuted the idea - which didn't help him be believed. It would have been better for him if he had said he had been talking over his reminisces with a member of staff who was helping him with his history. The Psy-Op was basically to promote the legend of the gangland / mafia theory of responsibility for Kennedy's murder, planned from a few years or so after the late 70s Congressional Church Committee investigation concluded there had indeed been a conspiracy and Oswald could not have been a 'lone nut' killer. As the 'lone nut' legend had always been the whole basis of selling the Oswald story from the word go, the latest (and last) official investigation blew open the hatches into potential further scrutiny into the real killers of JFK to come during the 80s. This Psy-Op was intended to limit that, promoting a focus on organised crime instead. This Psy-Op involved kind of programming Files to act as the murderer under a learned script, being promised that if he did this and helped the authorities cover up state persons' involvement in Kennedy's death, he would soon be rewarded with a release from prison to be kept very quiet. Unfortunately for those who arranged this, Files was a very poor actor. Few people who actually watched his "testimony" ever believed him. In the 90s the FBI investigated Files officially and released a statement saying they found he was "not credible". By the early 80s in any case threats, disappearances, accidents, deaths were recorded around many people who knew more about certain elements connected with the Kennedy assassination (see Richard Belzer's book, 'The Hit List'). This idea that the late 70s Congressional investigation would lead to progress within the murk surrounding the whole Kennedy assassination tended to fizzle out - whilst those remaining who did know apparently relevant pieces of information were too afraid to talk.
@@patrikfloding7985 In terms of the absolutely immaculate presentation, detail by detail, all consecutively on the one timeline, it really is remarkable. I'm not saying it's remarkable to remember after a few decades, but that the presentation of the "memory" is so perfect it is stunning.
It does make sense that someone was sent to kill Oswald and maybe was seen with a gun by Tibbetts and shot him. Oswald was told to hide, so he was chilling in movie theater and couldnt figure out what was going on when they grabbed him.
Oswald was ID'd by nearly a dozen witnesses as shooting Tippit and fleeing. Oswald owned and was in possession of the gun the shells were matched to. Oswald discarded his shirt, complete with fibres consistent with his shirt, between the crime scene and the theater. Oswald was plainly seen trying to hide from passing police in the store front. Oswald was plainly seen ducking into the theater to dodge more passing police. Oswald was caught red-handed trying to shoot a second cop. Oswald fought so violently 3 officers were injured just disarming him as he tried to fire. Oswald observed, "Well, they say it only takes a minute to die" after asking about the penalty for cop-killing. Oswald never attempted to blow any conspiracy framing him to any cop, any member of his family, to the President of the Dallas Bar Association, or to a live TV audience of millions.
Right but oswald was walking and they have said the cop oswald supposedly shot was actually shot no where near dealy Plaza, it was out of town and was the station wagon I believe, full of government guys who were pulled over for a traffic stop , they shot the cop and drove away. Meanwhile oswald was walking somewhere else
@@aaronz7056oswalds TV appearance was days after the event. The time frame is wrong because Tippet was not shot on the scene of Dealy Plaza , he was shot pulling over a car miles from the scene. Meanwhile oswald walked away from the scene and was on foot
@@aaronz7056 Good grief what a pack of invented ridiculous 3rd-hand lies. Literally none of what you said is true. In Oswald's impromptu press conference he said, "I'm just a patsy".
Nowadays Files is a devoted born-again Christian - he and his wife have written a couple books: "Primary Target: JFK" and "Interview With History," both well worth reading.
Few things here.. you are right. But now heres the thing.. he is in prison doing a tell all.. in 94. Look what happened to Epstein. This is even easier to get rid of him at this time point. Guys back then were just different no nonsense. Say nothing an deny all. He should be nervous he is still early in his bid. He definitely did some things and knew some things. And what he is claiming to have done. Is putting himself on the wrong side of his own scope. Why do that to yourself not to mention it be a lie.
@@amerisfanelli4593mouth sounds dry. Slight stutter. Seems like he's talking fast and not completely comfortable. Guarantee his HR is over 100. So yeah, nervous is a fitting description, lady.
Doesn't seem nervous one bit. Recall ability is like he is watching a movie in his head. Not from memorization of events he read about @@amerisfanelli4593
RFK Jr. said that the most accurate book on the JFK assassination is JFK and the unspeakable. This story actually fits almost perfectly with the events that are described in that book. Very interesting.
@aaronz7056 Would he not have access to any inside knowledge not available to the public? Regardless, that's only how I found out about the book. The book stands on its own and is very well written and redearched.
Anything to get out of the daily,mundane routine of the prison life, even if only a few hrs. I did 5 yrs and volunteered to rake rocks in the desert just to break the routine. And that was in Az ,in summer!
I have watched numerous documentaries on this subject for over 50 years now, different theories but with no satisfactory conclusion! But this is fascinating, I mean the detail is stunning! Was this ever investigated by law enforcement?
@rascal211 I still think he's lies im 60 and I was not born yet when Kennedy was killed Lee Harvey was 35years old that would make hi. 96 years old 20 years old is not enough time to shine in anything 2 years training is not enough he could not make any shots to get away. If he killed president he would be buried some where
LOL, the grassy knoll theory is a dead end, a red herring. There was no shooter on the grassy knoll at all. JFK received the deadly shot to the head from the direction of the sewer, the storm drain that was located in the side of the street, under the grassy knoll. The clear from that sewer outlet to the street was much wider in the 1960s than it is now, when Stone was shooting his movie about JFK in Daeley Plaza decades later his crew had the street re-asphalted which increased its level and decreased the visibility from the sewer outlet.
I am no scholar of JFK but I did read a passage in a book that explains something akin to what you are saying. Where the grassy knoll and the bridge meet there is a hole in the ground called a cistern, 3' wide and 5' deep where the water from the parking lot drains. All a gunman had to do was to position himself in there and then lift up the grate and take his shot, then quickly escape down the 18 inch pipe that fed into a six foot sewer under the street. This is exactly the angle from the shot on the Zapruder film where JFK was shot from the front. From there the 6 foot sewer pipe led to the Dallas police station and he was gone. Later the son of a Dallas police officer confessed that his father had pulled the trigger and had his diary to prove it, but it was given to the FBI and never seen again. Continuing, the bridge was built as a WPA project during the Great Depression by LBJ and certainly he would have known about the cistern and pipes. The authors' theory is that when JFK was shot, the nation came under the control of the CIA and the Establishment media bosses. Richard Nixon was ambushed at the Watergate by the interests of media boss Katharine Graham, who was protecting her television license in Miami from charges of participating in an election rig. There was a lot of election rigging going on back then and it had the support of the tv networks for controlling vote counts. The passage is found in chapter 17 of the book Votescam: The Stealing of America by the Collier brothers. I am only sharing this because I saw how your post had mentioned something similar.
Something has to go wrong in your head, to think doing this for any reason could be justified. After seeing the picture of GW Bush with his foot on the depository wall, I understood how politics really works. So many rabbit holes. The fact these people all got away is sick.
He says he shot from behind the fence, when there were 2 plain clothes men standing 10 to 15 feet away and near the steps (they stopped the motorcycle cop from running up) but he reckoned afterwards they were his cover or blockers. If they were legit security, they would have turned at sound of gun even with a silencer, and caught him in the 20 seconds he took to pack his gun in its case, take his jacket off, turn it inside out, and put it back on and don his hat.
I still await the day this grifter explains how anybody would ever assume in a million years they would successfully frame this on a lone shooter while firing from multiple directions.
There must have been little room in Dealey Plaza for ordinary citizens to look at JFK, what with all the shooters, lookouts, phony cops, CIA, FBI, mafia, radiomen, signallers, informants, get away drivers that were milling about lol.
Look into fireball it's amazing the 222 show was only in that gun for the prototypes which were sold to the CIA exclusively and only the prototypes had that round all of the commercial rounds were 221 only
@@bernardedwards8461 Actually the prototypes were in .222 Remington. The production guns were made in .221 Remington Fireball, plus a list of several other calibers.
Except that he would have been anywhere between 6-12 years old in 1963, at most. He would have had to skip his 4th grade class that day in 1963 to go shoot the president of the United States. Or maybe he just went over and shot him during recess.
I just googled the fireballs calibre of .222 - it equates to 5.6388 mm . I recall an in depth documentary about the magic bullet and everything that was wrong with the autopsy - all the secret service in that room when there should of JUST been medical professionals. The entry hole in JFK's skull was smaller that the calibre of LHO's Carcano rifle. I believe the Carcano off the top of my head is 6.5mm? When the autopsy was being carried out, they presented the Carcano round ( which I think was magically found lying next to JFK's body fully intact on the morgue slap ) The Carcano round was too big to make the entry hole, but it was a near perfect fit for the M16/AR15's that were carried in the car behind JFK by the secret service - the calibre of which is 5.56mm. When JFK arrived at the hospital, the secret service guys rounded up all the rifles and got them out of the picture. When they were asked later about them carrying these rifles, they denied they'd carried them - yet - after the first shot was fired and struck JFK and never hit him in the head, I'm certain that a secret service agent in that car behind him stood up in the back seat and did an ND ( negligent discharge ). I cannot remember if a muzzle flash was seen or filmed from that car because all eyes were on JFK so nobody was paying attention. People in and around heard a shot that seemed to originate from the vicinity of that car behind JFK's but also, most people were diving on the ground for cover. I think that there is some truth in James E Files, but I think there were multiple shooters, and if you're gonna shoot at a moving target, you need the target travelling away from you in a perfect straight line, or coming straight at you with no deviation. It doesn't matter how good you are as a shooter. Even at roughly 15mph and not coming directly at you - even from 40-45 yards ( estimate ), it's gonna be a tough shot to pull off. I'm inclined to believe that a couple of shooters were a little behind and to the left of the book depository, that is where I think potentially a fatal round came from. LHO - - 100% a Patsy. I believe he was on the ground floor with CIA agent George Bush senior and photographed together. Just my 10 cents worth.
About 18:25 - "the LEFT side of Kennedy's head". President was shot on his RIGHT side of his head. The shot would be on the SHOOTER'S left view through scope.
Yes it was the right side but from his view point it was his left. If you look at someone their left is your right and your right is their left. I can understand why he would say it this way.
I think he said he was aiming to the left of the presidents head because the car was in forward motion so he was aiming just a hair to the left of the path of the direction for the bullet to impact his head. He knew just like any shooter that if he was to aim at the right of the presidents head he would miss because of the forward motion of the car.
If Nicoletti ever learned that Files bit the shell and left it on the wooden fence, Files very soon would be sleeping with the fishes on the bottom of Lake Michigan. Files would never do anything that stupid, but he would plant a shell decades later to help sell a book.
The closing bit is significant. On March 29, 1979, the House Committee concluded that President Kennedy’s death “was probably the result of a conspiracy."
LBJ was the ultimate organizer. Well-known LBJ associate Billy Sol Estes gave state evidence in the 1970s after LBJ died in 1973, which revealed LBJ's activities in Texas re-assassination (hits), and JFK assassination involved in JFK's obsession with controlling Texas politically and retaining his power as a U.S. senator. The Zapruder film triggered the formation of a U.S. Congressional Committee review in 1979 which concluded that there had been a second shooter (Magic Bullet). See - "LBJ - The Mastermind of the Assassination of JFK," Phillip Nelson. Files is not mentioned in the voluminous index.
14:43 I state only this, as a 24 year policeman and fraud 20:11 investigator, this is the worst case of nervous dry mouth I've ever seen, and its much more noticable in his other interview. I'm not saying cotton mouth is always an indication of lying, but only that when a person is giving a nervous interview, cotton mouth is a very common physiological and involuntary change that is noticable, much less common when a person is giving spontaneous statements based on memory recall. I'm not saying he's lying, but only that it's the worst cotton mouth I've seen in my experience.
You can’t use simply a dry mouth as deception lol there should be 100 other things to use with it if that’s the case and you don’t need to be a investigator to know that
Ok, as a criminal of 30+ years I’ve been interrogated & interviewed by police detectives, attorneys, insurance investigators etc; this includes multiple depositions of 8hrs or more & I’ve sat & told the truth in those situations & I’ve sat & told complete fabrications at other times. And many, many factors led me to have dry mouth during those lengthy interrogations & depositions. One cannot say simply bcuz someone has dry mouth that he’s lying. That’s simply absurd. No disrespect intended. But making a blanket statement like the one you did is over simplifying things to a great degree.
And this is why people don’t trust cops and detectives. Not one of them believes innocent until proven guilty. You guys believe guilty unless they’re rich and have connections. Prove me wrong.
FYI this mans real name was Bradley Alfred Linzy, a known Mob enforcer and hired gun, rumourd to have died in the late 90s in Alabama State penitentiary, but apparently still living , he has 1 living son of the same name " Brad Linzy" who is a current Youruber with several channels including" Guitologist" which is a guitar and amplifier based repair channel.
This interview he said he aimed at Kennedy's eye but hit his temple. In the other interview, he said he aimed at the temple. i would like to see the picture of him at the shooting.
I was confused when Files was using his face to show where his shot hit JFK. He pointed to the right side of his face. And he said something about left side, right side. What confused me was I imagined Files was to the left of the car so wouldn't he point to the left side of his face? Could someone help me understand this? (Approximately 1:09:00 on the film)
Knowing what we know now, if the FBI says he's not credible then he's probably the most credible person we will ever hear.
Not necessarily. Think about it. You really think the FBI would let the true killer be named?

I almost do. The pointless lie/"forgot what I said" part about the 15k-30k payment is strange. Plus, being a huge gun and ballistics guy, a lot of what he's saying about the guns are true, except how he explains the said cartridge being used. Most of what he said about the 221 fireball cartridge is widely exaggerated, and having a friend who makes him "special bullets" or "mercury rounds" is where he lost me. Sounds good I guess unless you know more on the topic than he does.
no one has ever said that.

So many f'ing crazy people in the comments section of any video like this... Candace Owens and Donald Trump.... give me a f'ing break... I hope you are on medication.
If you want to know what really happened to make "things come out"... and by "things" I of course mean bullshit and lies... it was most likely noted crackpot Oliver Stone's very popular but very stupid 1991 film JFK... that film came out in 1991... this guy probably got a copy on VHS while in prison in 1992 or 1993... then first lied about being the mythological shooter on the grassy knoll in 1994. No big mystery here. The FBI investigated the claims, determined that they were horseshit, and so the man wasn't charged with assassinating a president as he would have been if there was even a shred of evidence to back up his fabulist fantasies. It's not illegal to lie, though... so... guy decided he liked the attention... and continues to lie to get more of it.
I don’t think he “knows” it. He might “believe” it. But that doesn’t make it true
That is no evidence at all. If the guy knew someone who knew someone who knew and he overhead some details here and there he had enough to do weave a tale.
He's not stumbling over the answers or hesitating before he answers them, he answers quickly and precisely. And he doesn't look nervous at all. he seems quite sure of himself and confident like someone who knows what he is talking about. seems credible to me.
Seems like there is some truth mixed in with fairy tales
@@soccersprinthe is definitely nervous at points. Is it because he is lying or because he is scared about telling his story?
Files story has been around for a while with other interviews and a book he wrote. I’m surprised how many people are just finding out about him now. Just goes to show what effort was made to bury his story.
Almost like it was rehearsed? Lol, that's not a new phenomenon!! I'm just getting started, so I could possibly come around
He looks down into the left a lot that is a Tell-Tale sign that he's lying😮 whole other level people whole other level
Dulles was the real culprit in the bay of pigs. He was told ‘No’ to the plan but proceeded anyway. It was all his fault.
You’re right. This is the reason JFK fired him. Then after the murder, LBJ and Hoover put him on the Warren Team
Indeed. And he was central to the conspiracy planning and then the cover up
Who told him "No"??
Operation Zapata, AKA The Bay Of Pigs, failed because McGeorge Bundy COUNTERMANDED JFK's order to destroy Castro's last 3 combat operational jets. The next day, those 3 jets destroyed several B-26s, and sank at least 2 ships. Type in L Fletcher Prouty explains The Bay Of Pigs, and Vietnam
They had the air support but the time zone was different and they were an hour late.
I'm so glad people keep reposting this .
They are or were a video on it also - I had it on VHS years ago.
I was 15, sitting in my high school English class, when someone came in the door and said the president had been shot. We were all stunned. School was dismissed, and nothing has been right in this country ever since.
@@Ciscodays Every person here should listen to your words.
I have read countless books on this subject and attendend a lecture by Robert J Groden who wrote "High Treason" about the assassination as well as reopening the House Assassination Committee. He mentions many of the same people that Files does. Another Mafia connected guy also said what Files said that the assassination was supposed to be called off, but someone pushed ahead with it any ways. Either this guy knows the key players and was involved or he has a photographic memory and has studied everything about this case. I find him to be one of the more fascinating persons regarding this case.
Watch Danny Jones podcast with Felix Rodriguez. According to him the second shooter was a sniper from the Cuban military and was in Dallas that day. Felix Rodriguez is ex CIA that is known for a bunch of crazy stuff. Some good and some pretty terrible.
@@miamichaels5999 Robert Groden is a charlatan respected by no one…a non-serious conspiracy peddler ….
@@peterseinfeld Thanks I will do that.
Have you read Files book Primary Target? I would love to see Files on Joe Rogan.
He was on another show, on tubi interview. He sounds very connected to the Chicago outfit with his recall of Melrose Park incidents. Chicago was the strongest mob in the country and they seem to have the contract for it.
Years ago when I was been trained as body guard for our Jamaican Prime Minister by Cubans operatives, I was told that President John F. Kennedy was shot from the grassy knoll and not by Lee Harvey Oswald ,so I believe this account😢
Oh. Since you "was been trained as body guard"....for the Jamaica guy....."by Cubans operatives", it is clear that ol' James Bond was a fairy princess compared to you. Thanks for your professional opinion.
@@roberthenry9319 what do you think is fake, his being a body guard of his training by Cuban operatives ? The latter was and is a common source of revenue and of political influence to the Havana mafia.
This is true! U had a good source
Was that the Prime Minister that Eliot Roosevelt was accused of plotting to have assassinated?
Oswald was the scapegoat because he got busted delivering a turbo cancer cuban cigar to Castro. He was caught in Mexico City and knew too much. He workef on top secret science programs that created turbo cancers
There is a later interview he did with even more detail and matches this exactly. I don't think he's lying.
I think the Warren commission, Fbi and CIA are lying
This one : ruclips.net/video/44x5I-kP48o/видео.html
I think he was too young to do the crime ,it would be interesting to know his age
I was 10 years old ? Take a good look at this guy !
@@rolandhawken6628he was in his 20’s during that time, that’s not to young
The “smoking bullet of proof” is that fact that he bit the shell casing and placed it on the fence, and it wasn’t disclosed until after his confessions that they had the shell casing with bite marks on it. And there is a photo of him standing behind the fence.
The shell casing was proved to have been manufactured after 1970.
James Files was in Chicago on the day of the assassination.
@@dab.What's the source of your proof?
@@dab.But James Sutton was.
@@clintonmccool2330 Alan Eaglesham and Jay Edward Epstein. Notorious liars. Like Gerald Posner.
@@dab. was never proved just as lone shooter was never proven - too many witnesses claimed to have heard more than 3 shots two of which in rapid succession impossible for lone gunman with bolt action -
He's really honest and real, impossible to know so much and be so direct and at the same time be a fake, he has nothing to lose because he's dying.
Evidence proved he was in Chicago during the assassination and when NBC, planning a TV show on him, confronted him with this he tried to tell them he was being confused with his own twin brother, who didn't exist.
I mean it's very possibly to "know so much" if it's a fabricated story.
What is more interesting rotting in prison. Or telling stories and getting a lot of attention. He has nothing to lose so why no lie? Clearly the guy has little morals. telling a lie to be a big shot fit perfect with his character.
Mr Files has been trained, many months by the JFK-Murder-coverup Administration, … the payment for this to a dying man is other means that money.. of cause
He is still alive. 30 years later.
35 years of psychology here, the hardest thing to tell when doing body and characteristic movements is, "memorizing a script" and "memory" are both pulled from the same cognitive zone. depending on how good someone is at acting out a part, they can literally emulate every single symptom and trait of someone telling the complete truth. This guys normal demeanor is that of a poker player, so he's also the perfect subject to use for an operation which might involve a coverup or snow job. The people who do this aren't stupid! And the people they choose are extremely talented in the areas of deception and lying.
One of my catches here is, this guy recalls the story just a little too good. Just a little too fluid. Now, that could be he's a very detailed individual with a great memory recall, or it could be that he's practiced this information over a long standing period of time and can lay it out in such a way where it sounds truthful and from experience...
My second catch is the tilted head to the left during the entire interview. But it seems like during certain questions, he tilts it much further than other times... This can be a sign of deception, or a subconscious effort to create distance between you and the person you're attempting to deceive. It can also mean you're fatigued or the subject matter and the having to deceive is taxing and so tilted head is a sign. I watched really close to see if the head tilt got worse with tougher questions and it did. So I think there is something there.... Direct confrontation is the emotion one feels when they're purposefully trying to mislead someone. I just feel like there is an act of deception here.
Honestly, I know there's a LOT of information about JFK's assassination that the world doesn't know, and I have a feeling when it finally comes to light, it will be a SHOCKER/BARN BURNER!! So I was keeping a very open mind here, trying to allow the information to lay over what I already know, to see if anything clicked... Here's what I will say... IF this guy is not the person who did it, you can bet at least one thing FOR DAMN SURE... He KNOWS the people who did! His story, although potentially fabricated, knows WAAAAAY TOO MUCH detail and nuances for it just to be his own... Somewhere, some entity has supplied him with a LOT of first hand knowledge. Which means, if he's not the one, he is still ONE of the ONES who knows what took place.
Yours, are Fine observations I was a kid when this happened (72 now) nd was impacted in many ways. Eventually, through out the years, i read many books on this topic., well known ones too. Put all together (the books), these few interviews (2) are way better at illuminating the magnicide than anything else seen or heard. You'd be in accordance with me, that there are only 2 answers; either he did do it, or he did not do it. My take is somewhat different from yours., even though I find yours very compelling., (though a little bit too convenient). I'd say this the real deal. This assasin, is the murderer. One of the two. ...SIMPLY.
Outstanding analysis, now please tell me I am not crazy and tell me Jonbennet Ramseys father is lying based on pretty much any of his interviews, especially pre-2000's interviews. Its obvious to me, but lots of people don't see it since the recent netflix special.
I have to agree with your evaluation. My ex wife was a social worker in training in 1983 and introduced me to the NLP book from Richard Bandler ( I think that is his name ) That book was co authored and I think the other guys name was Grinder. Anyway. it was at that time I began to realize how much work it is to be a professional liar for the simple fact that so many "tells" will appear when a person is lying and hasn't been practicing how to lie convincingly. Bombards website with Mandy breaking it all down is a great place to see deception and truth deciphered in real time. so, yes... Files was a little bit heavy on the details... the other thing that seemed off was biting on the 221 Remington bullet casing and leaving it at the scene of the crime... what so called professional would do that?
@chrispatriot I was very intrigued with your analysis and I actually agree with you on this. I'm not trained in any body language analysis or things like that but I am a people watcher if you will and have been from a very young age. I was 7 years old when President Kennedy was assassinated and I do remember my mother having to come down to the school to get me to bring me home as they released all the kids early that day. They never told us why but when I got home I remember sitting in front of the TV with my Mum and watching History unfold. The only other moment in History that comes to my mind as being so vivid and affecting my life as much as this would be the Apollo 11 moon landing in 1969.
I will probably watch this one or two more times but no matter what conclusion I come to I find this an intriguing and fascinating video and love reading the comments. The one thing that I feel very certain of is that, just like Jack the Ripper, this is one piece of History for which we will never know 100% of the truth.
Body language is all horse sh**. Nobody knows why a person is leaning his head to the left or right, looking up or down or in a stare-off eye to eye. Those who think they can are worse than armature fortune tellers. Police interviewers are the worst, falsely reading meaning into ever motion of a person.
A person may have a personal idiosyncrasy. or tell as in poker, but that's as far as it goes.
He sounds credible- either he is telling the truth or he put on an Academy Award performance - I think James is the real deal. Mr. Files was paroled in 2016
He certainly speaks with clarity and without pausing to think. No umms or ahs or eyes rolling up. I'm not a body language expert but I would like to hear from someone who is.
@thereanimator926 your talking to an AI bot amd watching disinfo lolololol
have figured for a while, safe enough in the pen I guess, he shot along with either Tippit or White @ Knoll or pergola, both crack shots , both in the loop one airborne one marine corps.

Call me sucker too, but I have no reason not to believe him.
@@750dollarman2 Maybe the location of the exit wound on JFK's head? Explain THAT somehow.
This is chilling! I was only 5 years old, but I remember that day and was terrified when we were sent home early from school and people were crying. I could not sleep for days. I even read "Death of A President" in high school for a book report. Files answered every question without stuttering, but when he mentioned Jack Ruby before his name even entered the questioning, that really got my attention and explained the reason for his death as well.
I was not born yet
I was 7, and remember being sent home at 2:10 - and the following day watching tv when Oswald was shot. No one i know bought the Warren commission report.
I was 3 months old. I remember everything:).
It's not chilling, it's hilarious. This clown was discredited years ago.
I remember that day, I was at work and we had the radio on and all of a sudden the news came out and said President Kennedy had been shot down in Texas. Everyone was stunned and people starting crying and we didn't know what happened because President Kennedy was taken to the hospital. It was the worst day and people started crying. We didn't find out he was dead until hours later. He was the first President I ever voted for, people of my age back then loved JFK he was young, he was a Catholic which most of us were, and I have never ever forgotten that day. Later we found out he died and we cried.
They don’t let guys who’ve been caught with this much ability for speaking out to stay alive
Exactly ....if true, he would have been dead in shortly after
He’s not alive stupid
Amazing how this is being aired now, got to ask yourself WHY
Who said he's alive? 🙄 This is legit.
The guy struggled to maintain eye contact when asked questions. I am not sure if he was a shooter but I do believe there was more than one and the US government when connected somewhere possibly with the CIA as Bush was in Dallas !
This guy says "I've never given up anyone in my life and I won't start now" yet he names a lot of people. So many people have clamed to be DB cooper, how many cons clamed they did something that was news worthy just to gain notoriety? This guy knows what he is talking about but so do a lot of people that have studied the event that took place on 22 November 1963 in Dallas.
The people he names were all dead at the time.

Like actors reading a script.
You have endless time to rehearse your story when you're in prison.
One problem: trajectory. JFK wasn't shot in the side of his head- he was shot from the front. That's why the back of his head was blown out.
@@ptdef2 the shot from the grassy knoll WAS from the front right.
@@ptdef2 Nope, fatal shot entered right temple at an angle, huge exit wound at bat back of head.
So that you'll believe him. BOT.
This could go down as one of the most important confession testimonies in history BUT we need a real investigation to make sure his story is credible especially as there's plenty of others who have claimed to be the shooter too.
There have been two separate investigations already, one by the FBI and another by renowned private detective Jules Krull. Both have determined Files to not be credible.
This article is old. This has been out for decades. As of 2024 he’s still alive. He is out of prison

My Father was investigator for a major city homicide and armed robbery divisions he did extensive training to spot someone lying. He watched this before he died and said he is the greatest liar that he ever seen. He showed absolutely no signs of being untruthful. Absolutely no signs in his face.

For him to be this detailed without something to refer to he would have to had rehearse this extensively for a year everyday there are too many details now my dad said he’s possible a distraction for the truth but he would be the greatest most rehearsed liar in the history of modern day crimes .!He also added that it wouldn’t be far fetched for that to be possible considering the severity of this crims

@GozonTheGonsarian OK there! You're a Kamala fan ain't you???😂😂😂😂😂
Sounds pretty credible but changing the amount of 15 grand to 30 grand makes me think there might be another party involved that he doesn't want to mention for whatever reason.
The other party was Oswald.
A lot of people involved. Many potential
“shoe-ters”; (sorry, YT’s “policies”)and many who got a shot off. I’ve believed this guy and that he was a big part of it. There may be a few discrepancies but this guy has always struck me as NOT lying. 🤷🏼♀️ I could be wrong.
The whole thing is sick and disturbing. I’m not clutching my pearls…I do know that life and politics are difficult and complicated. Still? This “event” and the whole Kennedy political saga and Kennedy filth…the CIA, LBJ, Hoover, Nixon, The Bush’s involvement, etc. All of it? Very disturbing. Disgusting. Shameful as a nation.
@AB-un4io 61yearslater and no one knows who killed JFK? Ridiculous. No front shooters , no conspiracy . You need to study this case more carefully . How was Bush involved ? Where was he on 11/22/63 ? My guess is you’ll answer incorrectly. Files is a liar .
There were 3-4 shooter teams but no one really knew what the job of the others were as they had their own orders, but they all knew they were part of the operation standard Tactic's!
You must have missed it. They were going to give him 15 up front, he refused, saying the 15 which was still a lot of money at the time, wouldn't have been significant to him. He went along with it for free. It wasn't until, a good amount of time went by, when Nicoletti gave him the full 30, stating it was for the Dallas job.
Fascinating interview, but I'm disappointed that the 2nd most important question (maybe the 1st) was not explored. Why would the mob want JFK killed? It was RFK who was doggedly
pursuing the mob. Killing JFK would only make RFK more relentless in his pursuit of the mob.
If the hit was orchestrated by the CIA, who were seriously in the business of assassination at
that time, would they really need the help of the mob? Collaborating with the mob could easily
implicate the CIA in the future. As more & more mob guys were called to testify for a variety
of government panels, there was always the chance that bits & pieces of info linking the CIA
to the mob & the assassination would be exposed. Mr. Files admits to a serious dislike of JFK
but he did not initiate the hit, or even know what he was involved in until a day or so before the
hit. Amazing to think that the very public assassination of one of histories most famous & well
documented people still defies logic & absolute truth.
Mr."DasKitten".....I'm a serious JFK student. You bring up a good point about why kill John, When Bobby was inverstigating. Get ahokd if "The Reporter Who Knew Too Much " by Mark Shaw. It answers all of your questions. This guy , on the surface seems credible. I'll take a few days to digest this information but hes NOT the first guy to come out of the woodwork. JRS.
Back during the campaigning jfk was actually behind. Prescott bush's bou h t and paid for politicians Richard Nixon,the then vp and previously senator was leading. Joe Kennedy went to the crime bosses in chicago and boston and a couple other democrat cities. He told the heads of the crime families, if they could help jfk win the election, he would get his sons to look the other way on organized crimes. The opposite happened. As files states the bay of pigs was a clandestines opperation. Both the Cia and mob were involved. The mob wanted certain casinos in Havana. Much time and money was spent. Jfk learned of the plsn to assassinate castro which would have caused khrusc to launch nuclear weapons at the US. Thus at the last moment kennedy canceled the air support. That act, as Files states, cost a lot of lives. Msny of those lives were in organized crime. So besides losing just men, the mob lost a new gambling resort. But none of this could have gone down without top governmental approval. That came from lbj who hates kennedy. He gave the go. He assigned Warren, someone kennedy fired, who hated jfk, to oversee the Warren commission, along with dulles, another disgruntles former g man.1:20:10 hev😮
Hoover didn't like either one of the Kennedy's and he was also Gay and they knew it. He had alot of reasons to get rid of both of the brothers.
The Mob wanted J.F.K. dead because that meant his brother wouldn't likely be the Attorney General any longer...Many groups had their reasons.
It was to send a message to their father. He made the mafia alot of promises if they helped John get elected, John didn't want to hold up his end of the deal.

I watched a number of interviews with James Files a while back and found him convincing for a while. He mentioned he had been in Vietnam in one interview and was asked if had he met Colonel Fletcher Prouty? He said he had and described him as "a great soldier." Colonel Prouty began as a cavalryman but quickly transferred to the Army Air Corps and was a pilot for years. At the time Files may have been in Indo China, Colonel Prouty was working in the Pentagon doing logistics and other secretive things- he was never a combat soldier as he was in USAF. This one comment suggested to me that Files could be making things up- although he clearly knows about weaponry, bullets and the anatomy of hits and assassinations.
No way making up anything. He is too knowledgable to bullshit
"This one comment suggested to me that Files could be making things up." This is an admission of bias when someone discounts relevant details because of a questionable irrelevant detail that dovetails down a rabbit hole about another man's career. It is comments like this, whether from a government agency or not, that increase Sutton's credibility. This is illogical reasoning. Maybe a good distraction for some. Try again and rebuke a relevant portion of his testimony instead of reaching down some rabbit hole that no one understands. KISS
Do you recall where that interview was? Did he say he met him IN country?,etc... Thanks!:)
@@daworldsyuthofdafuture It was on YT- one of a couple that were here nearly ten years ago. I know that Files mentions being in Laos- doing training when there were very few US personnel there- late 50s. Col Prouty has mentioned being in Vietnam with Ed Lansdale and buying a gift for one of the Diem brothers for him. Now it appears that Lansdale was in Saigon from 1954 to 1957- so that is before James Files was in Laos and Prouty has mentioned flying over Vietnam- north and south without concerns of being shot down. It is possible that Files and Prouty met but Prouty's skills were not those of a soldier which is why I questioned the response Files made. That alone does not mean his narrative is to be disbelieved but it got me wondering and I think that being a bit forensic about things is good- in all walks of life not just in the world of the Kennedy assassination. Clearly Files is massively knowledgeable in this arena on many levels and in areas that most have little or no knowledge and undoubtedly he was connected to key mob figures.
@@NickRatnieks Understood, and yes to forensic approach to all. thx!
I forgot to mention - the owner of the Texas School Book Depository Building was Ed Clark who'd also paid off the Bankruptcy expenses for LBJ to get his ranch back so he could look like he owned his own home, especially as he was going to be standing next to JFK in the 1960 POTUS Race. Ed Clark was known as The Oil King of Texas, The Texas Oil King, et al. This was because he had a very high rate of success when drilling for a good wet pocket. Ie, he was in that era, the richest man in the World supposedly. He also ran for President as the Libertarian Party Candidate in 1980.
Also, Marcello took obvious offense at being basically hijacked by the Kennedy Govt as he saw it & at least once dropped out of the USA deep in the jungle of Guatemala. It's not that hard to picture the degree of resolution for a Mafiosi worth between 15-30MILLION US DOLLARS having to dig & scratch his way back out of the jungle in street clothes probably & arrange to get back to the US where the vast majority of those investments were located- all the while, thinking resolutely 'I'll kill him! I'll kill him! Both of them.' With that disposition, resources & demeanor, willing to do what it takes to be in the top of 'a' business - it's not difficult to see such a slanted individual making plans once away from the mosquitos.
Obviously, LBJ was beholden to Clark so if/when he was aware of JFK's plans for a 2nd Term - as re eliminating the Oil Depletion Tax Relief (gift) to Big Oil - Ed Clark was told of that same plan. That gave him a reason but I don't want to speculate on that re motivation for Clark.
However, as stated, that 27% was a very Big Deal for people like Ed Clark, Ross Perot - an informant had mentioned that a man named R Parrot was talking about killing JFK. If I don't speak French & know how accents affect pronunciation: Perot & 'Parrot' are quite possibly the same.
At 16:18(±) re the "Fireball" that's a hotrodded Remington ' Varmint Killer '. Short end to end, scope mountable & re "one shot"- the advance of twisted rifling meant it could be a reliable source for more than a single use of a high load Ammunition. Obviously the accuracy level is reduced as re most equipment when used after being adapted for maximum accuracy/efficiency.

This is unbelievable .I can not believe after all these years. No one took him serious, and the no further investigations ever happened after this confession...
If you could believe it would be untrue.
Why would they want to take him seriously when if they did then a bunch of guys within the US government would be in serious trouble?
The government did not want to open that can of worms, cause then they would have to admit the warren commission was total bullshit and several agencies...CIA, FBI, mafia conspired to assassinate the president.
There were two thorough and separate investigations. Why do you think he's not in jail?
People are so gullible!
Many people knew about this, 30 years ago; they kept it quiet, because of the former president's involvement.
Most believable interview I’ve ever seen. Never looked away. Liars will always look away or down. He never does once. It went down exactly as he says.
You mean that the Arlen Specter, Magic Bullet Theory was all a lie????? Now how can I ever "trust the science" any more!!!!
That was a story concocted by the CIA and J Edgar Hoover to cover up the conspiracy.
Science changes and when it does do you think they’ll reprint all the schoolbooks and teach it? Then it changes again.
The magic bullet makes no sense any more. Since governor Connery is in the jump seat. He was in the passenger seat which the bullet was said to fly though.
Yes history changed. There used to be four people in the car. Mrs Connery was with lbj
The magic bullet never made sense. lol.

This guy drag races cars and becomes a weapons expert, an elite assasin a few years later with a bite-the-casing signature
In The Zapruder film, one can clearly see that President Kennedy was struck in the front right side temple as allegedly Oswald shot him in the back of the head. All bystanders said the last 2 shots came close together as BAM BAM BAM. The last 2 shots were both the head shots. In William Manchester's book, "The Day Kennedy Was Shot," President Kennedy's head exploded and spewing large gushes of blood and brains spurted out of his head soaking Jackie Kennedy and the seat and walls of the interior of the Limousine and kept largely gushing like a fountain until his blood pressure dropped to zero. President Kennedy was dead almost instantly. He was gurgling and his mouth was rapidly moving right after he was struck. His eyes were both open very wide and fixed as he bled to death with his head on his wife's lap. Horrid to see as SS agent Clint Hill saw as he climbed on the back of the limousine to shield everyone. President Kennedy's head was half blown open as brain chunks and rapidly flowing blood flooded the back seat and the floor of the limousine. as well the motor bike police windshields, and the suits of the driver Bill Greer and Roy Kellerman as well as spewing all over Clint Hill as he jumped on the speeding up Limousine. I do not attempt to be gory, but this is what truly happened.
too much information
Too many ppl and organisations involved in wanting JFK gone. CIA, FBI, Big Crime, Cubans, Russians, political opponents, etc. And all that, plus a botched whitewash of an investigation afterwards. A perfect storm. And Oswald was only a convenient scapegoat. The truth lies far beneath a complicated mess that will probably never be cleared away.
@@garyhamalainen1651The truth is never “too much information”.

Finally geez! Out of all of the shows, documentaries, stories etc, I never realized the angle of which this dude is speaking, So Oswald was telling the truth, he didn't shoot JFK .. Unbelievable ..
He said he was a patsy!
People are so gullible.
This dude was confronted with evidence he was in Chicago that day and he tried to pretend he was being confused with his own nonexistent twin brother, just before NBC cancelled the show they were planning on him. Watch the entire clip and Oswald only says he is a patsy in relation to being hassled by the police for having lived in Russia, and in fact he never tried to blow any conspiracy to anybody, including a live TV audience, never mind there's a mountain of evidence for his guilt anyway.

Project Hot Foot was a secret deployment of Army Special Forces teams to train Laotian forces from 1955 thru 1962. Files said he was assigned to the 82nd Airborne. He would have been at Bragg along with the Army Special Ops forces used in Project Hot Foot. He never said the 82nd was deployed. That could NOT be kept secret. However, he could have easily been attached to the Special Forces teams to fill a needed skill set. What gives me pause is that Files was born in 1942, making him 18 y.o. in 1959; essentially a “green” PFC. Hard to believe he would have attached at that age.
His identity was changed May have changed his birth year as well.
No 18 year old would be chosen for Special Ops. Watch the stolen valor videos by Don Shipley. If it happened, then his DD214 would show it and be easily retrievable.
My bet would be that there is no such DD214.
If he can't show his DD214 then the whole thing is Bandini Mountain.

We were overthrowing Syria and Iran at the same time in 59. So I can see him being in Laos. We needed people willing to go the work from other war torn countries we were involved with. It’s a simple war strategy when hiring death squads for proxy sabotage propaganda campaigns.

Pushing the narrative...
Awe, Jack Ruby! I found out about 11 years ago that my Uncle on my mother's side was a close friend to Ruby. That told me why my mother didn't want to be there in case something happened and would not let me see the President coming from Down Town.We pulled out just ahead of them and there were 5 Semi type shots that I remember hearing. But years later I did the research and found 6-bullet's fired. And Files was carring a briefcase.
Hey bot, enjoy yourself here.
@@cjay2 What are you saying? And who is bot?
Well, what do sixty years' worth of multiple investigations know compared with you, right?
All credible ballistic, film, eyewitness, medical and forensic evidence clearly demonstrate 3 shots.
@@cjay2that’s really lame of you to say.
I was in Dealey Plaza approximately 2 years ago. The distance from the wall at the grassy knoll is ridiculously close, less than 50 yards. I was amazed that the news accounts of the assassination made it sound like an impossible shot, far from it. The shot from the 6th floor or the surrounding areas were not unusual. The fact that the motorcade drove at a low speed through this turn is one of the most glaring examples that this was arranged by the highest level of our own government, JFK wanted to get out of Vietnam, war is profitable. RIP JFK.
Not to mention, the rifle oswald had wasn't that accurate plus, had to be bolted with each round. Try getting off three accurate shots in 6 seconds with a moving car speeding up after the first shot

I've seen him on TV before and here on RUclips confessing. He's been saying this for a while now. Not sure why they're bringing it back up. He had information no one knew until the JFK files came out just recently. All his account can be corroborated with those files. I believe him.
@@LearningCurves123 He was a gopher for those around him. He knows the framework but he was not “the guy”. The guy never talked. He was a professional.
What credible information is in the interviews that was not already released or in the public domain?
@@squarebale1 I believe it. He washed the cars, rims on the cars as a kid as he said in his interview, then goes on to say that he got into racing cars and driving for the mob. You move your way up when you make a name for yourself. Afterwards he started doing "jobs" for them. All of it is in the JFK files and can be corroborated. The positioning, the gun style/type, he knew who was on top of the "grassy knoll". The cop that was up there talking to two people was corroborated in the JFK files. He walked right past him with a briefcase. He's says the EXACT same thing in another interview. The information is too fluid, too fast to be "made up". Two interviews. Both exactly the same. No one would know all those details of the exact same thing in both without messing up your story at least once. He doesn't mess up. It was him.
Because so many people don't know JFK was killed by our own government.
He IS the professional. Yours is a romanticized, phoney, holliwoody version.
This man may have taken a shot but the bullet that killed JFK came from the front and through the windscreen of the car and this shooter was like a military sniper marksman. I believe there were a lot of people with rifles in the ambush. It's a miracle only one man was killed.
I suppose you also believe in the Easter Bunny!
I always thought that too... because bullets follow straight lines... if JFK was hit in the right temple from the right the bullet would have exited out the left rear of the head. But the huge exit wound is in the right rear. That means a bullet from the knoll would have entered JFK's temple and then made a right 90 turn. But If hit from the front, the bullet would have gone in the tight side and exited on the right side.
@@curbozerboomer1773 And I suppose you actually believe you have a brain
It literally struck him in the temple, just as this guy said. I am not saying for sure this is the guy, but there is no doubt where the head shot came from.
Yep Tom.. I think the shot came from behind the fence atop the gassy knoll. Hobos were spotted and told to leave near the RR tracks there as Dallas police came to the scene. A secret svc man testified at least 1 of those shabbily-dressed hobos had shiny new shoes, suggesting they were decoys or otherwise nefariously at the scene and not hobos at all.
For me, this man is totally credible.
I have 20+ years of mental health experience. And I fancy myself as being perceptive in reading people thru work and a natural gift. This man’s details tell me he’s been well trained. He also has extensive training in not missing details. This is high level training. Even that he’s working in accordance with some government agency he has been trained With the best we have in intelligence agencies. The 26:10 mark he makes mention to another event he was involved in. We all know about all the assassinations in the 60s so I’d venture to say he probably was involved with another assassination in the 60s

He does look like the guy described in the MLK shooting.
He is very anxious and has pressured speech. His presentation of information suggests it was rehearsed, but he is very bright. What did he get for this interview? Where is the FBI or, for that matter, any law enforcement? There is no way they wouldn't know about this "public" interview! I think he is on medication for a mood disorder. He could be telling the truth, more information is needed. Wow!
He says in the interview that the FBI had been to visit him. But see, the FBI has his military records and that’s probably why they didn’t take him serious. The 82nd wasn’t in Laos in 59. That’s the first hole in his story, and not the last one.
There's always multiple plausible theories provided in these operations to divide a consensus from ever forming to implicate anyone on the inside of a conspiracy.
2001 is a perfect example of this, as many theories except the one provided are correct.
Many participated, but the driver was the one who was to make sure the job was completed. And that he did.
Jackie wasn't crawling out the back to pick up brains. She did exactly what everyone one of us would do if you witnessed what she did
THIS!!!
HUH?
I've never thought of that. She was trying to escape the car not pick up his brains
You’re wrong, it is one of the most tragic things ever filmed and sadly, there is no question that Jackie was desperately trying to retrieve parts of her husbands head from the trunk of the car. Not sure why you would say it didn’t happen but you are definitely wrong.
She wasn't trying to get out or grab brain tissue.. She was trying to grab the hand of the Secret Service Agent crawling up the trunk of the car.
This is the first interview!!
He said the same thing almost Identically in the second interview!! Sounds credible and he was very consistent in his explanation to all the questions posed to him!!!!
What 2nd interview?
This guys story is solid this is the 2nd interview confession I've seen from JAMES FILES. BOTH INTERVIEWS WERE TAPED SEVERAL YEARS APART FROM EACH OTHER.
How did Nicoletti climb up in a building, shoot JFK, then somehow beat this guy to the car when file made it back to the vehicle? Dude must have been a world class sprinter…
Nicoletti was let in the Daltex building by Frank Sturgis he organised a room that was being renovated at the time so no one was on that floor they were let in and out through a fire escape at the rear!
@@BrettSanzSantini-m7v No evidence for this rubbish, all credible evidence points to Oswald.
Good question
There another interview documentary of an older James Files
He is the real deal. He talk about the bullet case bite marks. And there was one found on the floor years later under the picket fence that fits his description.
Why would he have his friend make 6 Mercury rounds for him before he left if he only thought he was going to be a Driver and advisor?
Good point! Because he made it up? Consider the exact position of JFK's heat when the final bullet hit him. draw a straight line from File's pretend position behind the picket fence. Now explain how the bullet blew out the lower right side of JFK's head and not the left side. This man is lying.
They were the orders which he doesn't question according to him
*That takes me to the question that shouldve been asked 'Did you bring your own gun & get your own bullets?' He could have been firing blanks & didn't even know it.*
@@thetruthchannel349ever fired a blank before? They don't look like real ammo, they don't sound like real ammo, and they don't recoil like real ammo. There is absolutely no chance whatsoever that a man like that could be firing blanks and not know it
He admitted to lying about the amount of money he received. His entire attitude changed. Something is off about his story. His expressions changed after the interviewer caught him lying. He got nervous from that point on. Some of you experienced with criminals may have caught that
BS story. Chicago mob telling a punk 21 yr old kid every detail of the biggest hit in history. He got out the army in 62 he developed these relationships all in a year lol
Grassy knoll shooters are like Elvis impersonators, there's a lot of them. This guy does have his story down well.
He was also at Woodstock and tried the brown acid
This biein fake or not, the shot that hit Kennedy in the right front side of his head is the biggest gaslight video in this century. To say he was hit in the head from the rear is a whopping lie.
Files is at least the 3rd "grassy knoll" shooter.
He sure does, a liar will hesitate to search for words this guy doesn't do any of that,
@@user-bl6ne3hc6n People, even when being honest, will sometimes hesitate to search for the proper words. Meanwhile, if a liar has his story down pat, he might not hesitate at all. (And Files has had a lot of free time, to get his story down pat)
Once a prisoner? Learns there are MORE perks for someone, anyone? Who's killed someone famous? Everyone takes credit. Gives a first person account. Taken directly from the news. The true assassin feels left-out, ignored. A resentment builds.
David Berkowitz' DOG tried to take credit. Even proving it could load - and fire -
an automatic. Berkowitz was Saved by Jesus. But not Sam.
So he shot the President with a .221 Fireball? The Fireball in 1963 was an experimental pistol that Remington was developing. I always found it implausible that Oswald got 3 shots off with a 6.5 Carcano. The Carcano was not the most accurate rifle of its day. Now, I’m expected to buy that Files hit a moving target with a bolt action pistol, after firing he was able to discern a piece of skull fly onto the trunk??? Sorry, I ain’t buying this, BTW, I’ve reloaded enough rifle brass in my day to know you’d need a hydraulic jaw to leave teeth marks in a spent casing. He says he killed Kennedy, then he scans the crowd with the 3x scope and see Frank Sturgiss. In 1994, the Federal Bureau of Investigation was quoted as having investigated Files' allegation and found it "not to be credible". Files was paroled and is still alive. Surprisingly he hasn’t been whacked for mentioning 3 Mafiosos in the interview…..
Because they are all dead
Ain't no way he's hitting a moving target with a scoped XP-100 pistol. Not to mention that the XP-100 would most likely be using a long-eye relief scope which have a really poor field of view even at low power.
Brass is a soft metal unlike steel casings. You definitely wouldn't need a press to dent them. I'm not saying you could easily crush it with your teeth, but you could definitely dent it.
But good try.
Also, the fact that you believe the FBI about anything....especially JFK related is pretty wild. Theyre not smart people. Theyre certainly not honest people.
That's because they're dead & he can't hurt them now.
I’m a big historian. I love history and I have studied a lot about JFK assassination. That’s something that’s peaked my mind. One thing was said they call it the magic bullet and I believe it is a whole heartedly because there’s over 8 to 10 people that claimed they shot Kennedy so that bullet went through eight guns it must be a magic bullet. This guy says he did it. Another guy says he did it. Another guy says he did it, so they was playing like lacrosse one guy shoots the bullet to the other guy he put it in his gun shoots it to another guy and one takes puts in his gun and shoots the magic bullet, but you know they all got something in common. They all already in prison and serving life they gonna die in there. They have nothing to lose, so what is the worst to happen to him? They might as well become a celebrity sorta I am a special forces veteran who has overseas killed people and saw people killed on a daily basis. Some of the people we killed were bad very bad good people in a bad position. I don’t care how bad they were killing. Someone is nothing to brag about. It bothers me every day even the ones that were the scum of the Earth you still think about having to kill them so I don’t see why anyone would want to lie about killing anyone and especially not a president but somebody’s lying because I’ve heard of 8 to 10 people I’ve saw claim they killed Kennedy
@@timdavis5078 so many peeps on it no one knows which one actually fired the fatal shot. He believes himself and it matters but there were def more people there TO kill him than we know.
There was more than one shooter
The lies/ distractions continue. You hear guys like " Files" befor. Look at the trees, that then were cut down., fools. Look at the published picture of Bill Grear ( limo driver ) in LIFE MAGAZINE from the Zapruder film as he blows Kennedy's brain out of his head. Then Bobby ! Denile ! Because you don't want to know. Jhonson, Hover , Bush forgot about the " trees". , check the records, documents, pictures, films.l I had a friend there that was told if he told what he knew, he would be put in prison !! Hugh ? 6 shooters. You all know now.
Besides Files, who else has claimed they took the fatal head shot?
Jhonson hid behind his driver 4 sec. Befor the exicution started, ---- records. ---- no one knew the route has been changed. He left Ladybird on her seat, nice guy, documented records. How did Jhonson, Hover , Bush, know that Oswald shot somebody, they never met him ?
If the mob was involved, they're gonna leave a co-conspirator/ witness behind to tell the tale? Think again.
several mob big shots were eliminated before they could be grilled on the assassination..... they prolly considered Files nothing to worry about.
He said that he didn't want to talk about the killing of Officer Tibbet. Meanwhile, he goes on to talk about it 😂😂😂
Of course he didn't wanna talk about it. Because THAT was the reason that Oswald was arrested - NOT for the killing of the president, as they didn't have evidence on which to arrest him at that point. And for whatever reason, Files doesn't want to tie Oswald in to the killing of JFK - which would make *particular* sense if Oswald's only purpose in the operation were for him to get his fingerprints on the depository rifle so that he could be framed for the crime. Files doesn't want to touch on it, because to touch on Tibbet would be to touch on his conscience (if he indeed has one) and to have to feel the guilt in being reminded that co-conspirator Oswald was made to be the fall guy.
That'ssssssss all IF Files is telling the truth in the first place... 🤷♂
Funny that he says he hated JFK about the Bay of Pigs but he says his controller was David Atlee Philli[ps who was well know to have assisted in the Bay of Pigs... I'm not buying what this guy's selling
maybe he didn't know that about David
Hello, he hated JFK for hanging those guys out to dry he says that pretty clearly.
He was not the only one to shoot Kennedy.
There were several, but he was NOT ONE of them!!!
He was in Chicago.
If dozens upon dozens of eye witnesses to the JFK assassination were ‘unlived’, or silenced by threats with in a couple of years after the event, what makes anyone think that the shooters involved, out lasted Oswald?
I believe Oswald was set up...... exactly as he claimed (just a patsy) I've been seeing that image of Oswald's face for 60 years now and I finally feel as if I know exactly what he was thinking as he's being dragged around Dallas PD. headquarters. It's a face of sheer disgust because he knows he's about to take the fall for a major assassination in which he was just a bit player. He's disgusted with himself for getting suckered into such a farce. Obviously I don't believe he was the main character in the assassination...... it's just an opinion, I wasn't there.
The "mysterious deaths list of witnesses" is a hoax started by a couple of grifters where everybody on it either had little or no connection to the case or else their causes of death were misreported to sound more "sinister."
Watch the entire clip and Oswald only says he's a patsy in relation to being hassled by cops for having lived in Russia.
In fact he never attempted to blow any conspiracy framing or sacrificing him to any cop, any member of his family, to the President of the Dallas Bar Association, or to a live TV audience of millions, never mind the mountain of evidence for his guilty anyway, starting with him being caught red-handed trying to murder a police officer.
Right he would have been gone a week after.
They tried
No they weren't, seriously name one, they even put the multiple film recordings in the media for decades, that isn't covering it up
It’s absolutely disgusting that you would ask for an autograph. That is horrible. You should be ashamed.
Having the author sign their book... a routine thing. I had Files and Pamela Ray both sign it. It's a piece of history.
Don’t be too quick to judge until you carefully watch the full video. Critical analysis and plenty of patience required before rushing to final judgment.
Here's final judgment: evidence proved he was in Chicago that day and when NBC confronted him with this he tried to pretend he was being confused with his own nonexistent twin brother. But sure, let's hear him out...
This country is evil.
Yes it us evil. The USA = the united satans of america.
Pretty sure that’s all countries. If you live in America and you don’t like it. Please just leave. If you are privileged, go to a country with less and see how evil “this” country really is.
The World is evil
This country is not evil. If anybody is evil it's the people that use their influence and money to manipulate whatever they find nessasary to get the policies and regulations that benefits their agenda... Like Marxist like to do... like Soros and his kid like to do.
True or not... "everything is a rich man's trick" is interesting and does not mention this man.
That's because he's LYING!!
That video is the stupidest piece of lie-packed paranoid garbage ever made, showcasing one demonstrable liar and notorious grifter after another, and when it lectures Officer Tippit was shot just to provide body parts for Kennedy's autopsy (!!!) all you can do is laugh...
This guy never blinks. Unusual.
he also never steps away and takes a bite of pizza.
What was much talked about in circles back in the 1980s to 90s when this was going on was that this was a kind of a Psy-Op using James Files.
Files had been trained and trained over quite some time to learn this story, detail by detail which I think comes across noticeably in the interview. His recall, particularly into detail and the way it is arranged perfectly in the timeline would be absolutely remarkable if this really were a convicted, mercenary style gun-for-hire who happened to have assassinated Kennedy 20 years before his claims first emerged and around 30 years before this recording.
Files was asked if he had anybody coming in to help him prepare his testimony and he refuted the idea - which didn't help him be believed. It would have been better for him if he had said he had been talking over his reminisces with a member of staff who was helping him with his history.
The Psy-Op was basically to promote the legend of the gangland / mafia theory of responsibility for Kennedy's murder, planned from a few years or so after the late 70s Congressional Church Committee investigation concluded there had indeed been a conspiracy and Oswald could not have been a 'lone nut' killer. As the 'lone nut' legend had always been the whole basis of selling the Oswald story from the word go, the latest (and last) official investigation blew open the hatches into potential further scrutiny into the real killers of JFK to come during the 80s. This Psy-Op was intended to limit that, promoting a focus on organised crime instead.
This Psy-Op involved kind of programming Files to act as the murderer under a learned script, being promised that if he did this and helped the authorities cover up state persons' involvement in Kennedy's death, he would soon be rewarded with a release from prison to be kept very quiet.
Unfortunately for those who arranged this, Files was a very poor actor. Few people who actually watched his "testimony" ever believed him. In the 90s the FBI investigated Files officially and released a statement saying they found he was "not credible".
By the early 80s in any case threats, disappearances, accidents, deaths were recorded around many people who knew more about certain elements connected with the Kennedy assassination (see Richard Belzer's book, 'The Hit List'). This idea that the late 70s Congressional investigation would lead to progress within the murk surrounding the whole Kennedy assassination tended to fizzle out - whilst those remaining who did know apparently relevant pieces of information were too afraid to talk.
nope
Who was cardinal/bishop of NY at that time?
Why do you think remembering something like this in detail 20 years later is remarkable? It is not.
Was he soon "rewarded with a release from prison?" No. He did another 22 years.
@@patrikfloding7985
In terms of the absolutely immaculate presentation, detail by detail, all consecutively on the one timeline, it really is remarkable. I'm not saying it's remarkable to remember after a few decades, but that the presentation of the "memory" is so perfect it is stunning.
It does make sense that someone was sent to kill Oswald and maybe was seen with a gun by Tibbetts and shot him. Oswald was told to hide, so he was chilling in movie theater and couldnt figure out what was going on when they grabbed him.
Oswald was ID'd by nearly a dozen witnesses as shooting Tippit and fleeing.
Oswald owned and was in possession of the gun the shells were matched to.
Oswald discarded his shirt, complete with fibres consistent with his shirt, between the crime scene and the theater.
Oswald was plainly seen trying to hide from passing police in the store front.
Oswald was plainly seen ducking into the theater to dodge more passing police.
Oswald was caught red-handed trying to shoot a second cop.
Oswald fought so violently 3 officers were injured just disarming him as he tried to fire.
Oswald observed, "Well, they say it only takes a minute to die" after asking about the penalty for cop-killing.
Oswald never attempted to blow any conspiracy framing him to any cop, any member of his family, to the President of the Dallas Bar Association, or to a live TV audience of millions.
Right but oswald was walking and they have said the cop oswald supposedly shot was actually shot no where near dealy Plaza, it was out of town and was the station wagon I believe, full of government guys who were pulled over for a traffic stop , they shot the cop and drove away.

This version of his confession must have been one of the first. He seems very nervous. The one I saw he came across as confident and arrogant.
Few things here.. you are right. But now heres the thing.. he is in prison doing a tell all.. in 94. Look what happened to Epstein. This is even easier to get rid of him at this time point. Guys back then were just different no nonsense. Say nothing an deny all. He should be nervous he is still early in his bid. He definitely did some things and knew some things. And what he is claiming to have done. Is putting himself on the wrong side of his own scope. Why do that to yourself not to mention it be a lie.
Nervous? You must have the definition of nervous mixed up. Nowhere does he seem nervous in this interview darling
@@amerisfanelli4593mouth sounds dry. Slight stutter. Seems like he's talking fast and not completely comfortable. Guarantee his HR is over 100.
So yeah, nervous is a fitting description, lady.
Doesn't seem nervous one bit. Recall ability is like he is watching a movie in his head. Not from memorization of events he read about @@amerisfanelli4593
He does not seem nervous. Sounds similar to his subsequent interview.
RFK Jr. said that the most accurate book on the JFK assassination is JFK and the unspeakable. This story actually fits almost perfectly with the events that are described in that book. Very interesting.
"RFK Jr. said..."
@aaronz7056 Would he not have access to any inside knowledge not available to the public? Regardless, that's only how I found out about the book. The book stands on its own and is very well written and redearched.
RFK JR...is an absolute crackpot! His family has dis-owned him.
RFKJr. Is full of crap
You believe anything RFJK jr says?
Anything to get out of the daily,mundane routine of the prison life, even if only a few hrs. I did 5 yrs and volunteered to rake rocks in the desert just to break the routine. And that was in Az ,in summer!
My thoughts exactly. In that time frame JFK was dead thirty years. There were many movies and books released. Mine as well jump on the band wagon.
Keep in mind, though, that West was introduced to Files by an FBI agent, so you'd THINK that that agent woulda had *some* kinda insider info... 🤷♂
@@larkefedifero Who knows. We're constantly lied to and treated like morons.
I have watched numerous documentaries on this subject for over 50 years now, different theories but with no satisfactory conclusion! But this is fascinating, I mean the detail is stunning! Was this ever investigated by law enforcement?
He says he had never pointed the finger at anyone, but he named 6 or 7 people in this interview.
That’s because they were all dead at the time of the interview. He doesn’t rat on people that are still alive, he mentioned that.
@@grandwonder5858exactly. In a later interview he refuses to give away a guys identity because he might still be alive.
@axer3515
*You don't pay attention well do you?*
Everyone he named is dead. What can they do?
He was 19 during the Bay of Pigs and he says he trained operatives of the Bay of Pigs, I don't believe it.
Patsy
@rascal211 I still think he's lies im 60 and I was not born yet when Kennedy was killed Lee Harvey was 35years old that would make hi. 96 years old 20 years old is not enough time to shine in anything 2 years training is not enough he could not make any shots to get away. If he killed president he would be buried some where
He was in the army from 17. So what's your point. You clearly have not been in the army
@@fiachramaccana280 There are references to Files service as 1959-60. I am sure folks can check that for sure.
@@fiachramaccana280I’m guessing his point is they don’t have a less than 2 years of training soldier doing covert operations training.
LOL, the grassy knoll theory is a dead end, a red herring. There was no shooter on the grassy knoll at all. JFK received the deadly shot to the head from the direction of the sewer, the storm drain that was located in the side of the street, under the grassy knoll. The clear from that sewer outlet to the street was much wider in the 1960s than it is now, when Stone was shooting his movie about JFK in Daeley Plaza decades later his crew had the street re-asphalted which increased its level and decreased the visibility from the sewer outlet.
Yes
I am no scholar of JFK but I did read a passage in a book that explains something akin to what you are saying.
Where the grassy knoll and the bridge meet there is a hole in the ground called a cistern, 3' wide and 5' deep where the water from the parking lot drains. All a gunman had to do was to position himself in there and then lift up the grate and take his shot, then quickly escape down the 18 inch pipe that fed into a six foot sewer under the street. This is exactly the angle from the shot on the Zapruder film where JFK was shot from the front. From there the 6 foot sewer pipe led to the Dallas police station and he was gone.
Later the son of a Dallas police officer confessed that his father had pulled the trigger and had his diary to prove it, but it was given to the FBI and never seen again.
Continuing, the bridge was built as a WPA project during the Great Depression by LBJ and certainly he would have known about the cistern and pipes.
The authors' theory is that when JFK was shot, the nation came under the control of the CIA and the Establishment media bosses. Richard Nixon was ambushed at the Watergate by the interests of media boss Katharine Graham, who was protecting her television license in Miami from charges of participating in an election rig.
There was a lot of election rigging going on back then and it had the support of the tv networks for controlling vote counts.
The passage is found in chapter 17 of the book Votescam: The Stealing of America by the Collier brothers. I am only sharing this because I saw how your post had mentioned something similar.
J.f.k was not in the car
Wrong
Something has to go wrong in your head, to think doing this for any reason could be justified. After seeing the picture of GW Bush with his foot on the depository wall, I understood how politics really works. So many rabbit holes. The fact these people all got away is sick.
He says he shot from behind the fence, when there were 2 plain clothes men standing 10 to 15 feet away and near the steps (they stopped the motorcycle cop from running up) but he reckoned afterwards they were his cover or blockers.
If they were legit security, they would have turned at sound of gun even with a silencer, and caught him in the 20 seconds he took to pack his gun in its case, take his jacket off, turn it inside out, and put it back on and don his hat.
I still await the day this grifter explains how anybody would ever assume in a million years they would successfully frame this on a lone shooter while firing from multiple directions.
I've seen it suggested for years there were people there to protect the shooters. The shooter might not know that in advance.
@@aaronz7056 It's easy to convince people that what they thought they heard wasn't what they really heard.
@@DIGIPIX55 He says elsewhere he did not know that they were blockers or protectors - but fired anyway............?
There must have been little room in Dealey Plaza for ordinary citizens to look at JFK, what with all the shooters, lookouts, phony cops, CIA, FBI, mafia, radiomen, signallers, informants, get away drivers that were milling about lol.
Look into fireball it's amazing the 222 show was only in that gun for the prototypes which were sold to the CIA exclusively and only the prototypes had that round all of the commercial rounds were 221 only
The calibre was .223, but that is a minor point.
Good to know.
@@bernardedwards8461 Actually the prototypes were in .222 Remington. The production guns were made in .221 Remington Fireball, plus a list of several other calibers.
Just watched the other interview with this guy when he is a lot older.. seems like he knows all the right stuff. This has to be the shooter.
Except that he would have been anywhere between 6-12 years old in 1963, at most. He would have had to skip his 4th grade class that day in 1963 to go shoot the president of the United States. Or maybe he just went over and shot him during recess.
I just googled the fireballs calibre of .222 - it equates to 5.6388 mm . I recall an in depth documentary about the magic bullet and everything that was wrong with the autopsy - all the secret service in that room when there should of JUST been medical professionals. The entry hole in JFK's skull was smaller that the calibre of LHO's Carcano rifle. I believe the Carcano off the top of my head is 6.5mm? When the autopsy was being carried out, they presented the Carcano round ( which I think was magically found lying next to JFK's body fully intact on the morgue slap ) The Carcano round was too big to make the entry hole, but it was a near perfect fit for the M16/AR15's that were carried in the car behind JFK by the secret service - the calibre of which is 5.56mm. When JFK arrived at the hospital, the secret service guys rounded up all the rifles and got them out of the picture. When they were asked later about them carrying these rifles, they denied they'd carried them - yet - after the first shot was fired and struck JFK and never hit him in the head, I'm certain that a secret service agent in that car behind him stood up in the back seat and did an ND ( negligent discharge ). I cannot remember if a muzzle flash was seen or filmed from that car because all eyes were on JFK so nobody was paying attention. People in and around heard a shot that seemed to originate from the vicinity of that car behind JFK's but also, most people were diving on the ground for cover. I think that there is some truth in James E Files, but I think there were multiple shooters, and if you're gonna shoot at a moving target, you need the target travelling away from you in a perfect straight line, or coming straight at you with no deviation. It doesn't matter how good you are as a shooter. Even at roughly 15mph and not coming directly at you - even from 40-45 yards ( estimate ), it's gonna be a tough shot to pull off. I'm inclined to believe that a couple of shooters were a little behind and to the left of the book depository, that is where I think potentially a fatal round came from. LHO - - 100% a Patsy. I believe he was on the ground floor with CIA agent George Bush senior and photographed together. Just my 10 cents worth.
About 18:25 - "the LEFT side of Kennedy's head". President was shot on his RIGHT side of his head. The shot would be on the SHOOTER'S left view through scope.
He later said he meant from his point of view, that is if he were looking face to face
@@nottabot3843yeah he says that too in the other interview.
Yes it was the right side but from his view point it was his left. If you look at someone their left is your right and your right is their left. I can understand why he would say it this way.
I think he said he was aiming to the left of the presidents head because the car was in forward motion so he was aiming just a hair to the left of the path of the direction for the bullet to impact his head. He knew just like any shooter that if he was to aim at the right of the presidents head he would miss because of the forward motion of the car.
Exactly.....His left and Kennedy's right.
If Nicoletti ever learned that Files bit the shell and left it on the wooden fence, Files very soon would be sleeping with the fishes on the bottom of Lake Michigan.
Files would never do anything that stupid, but he would plant a shell decades later to help sell a book.
That’s pretty wild stuff.
The closing bit is significant. On March 29, 1979, the House Committee concluded that President Kennedy’s death “was probably the result of a conspiracy."
His mouth was so dry it started making that sticky sound when he spoke It was making MY mouth dry LOL
😝 I had to keep licking my lips too.
If Rosselli was involved I can't see him being anywhere near Dallas that day.
If we ever learned what nefarious activities our government, or Mossad has carried out on this soil it would changed a lot of perspectives.
LBJ was the ultimate organizer. Well-known LBJ associate Billy Sol Estes gave state evidence in the 1970s after LBJ died in 1973, which revealed LBJ's activities in Texas re-assassination (hits), and JFK assassination involved in JFK's obsession with controlling Texas politically and retaining his power as a U.S. senator. The Zapruder film triggered the formation of a U.S. Congressional Committee review in 1979 which concluded that there had been a second shooter (Magic Bullet). See - "LBJ - The Mastermind of the Assassination of JFK," Phillip Nelson. Files is not mentioned in the voluminous index.
14:43 I state only this, as a 24 year policeman and fraud 20:11 investigator, this is the worst case of nervous dry mouth I've ever seen, and its much more noticable in his other interview.
I'm not saying cotton mouth is always an indication of lying, but only that when a person is giving a nervous interview, cotton mouth is a very common physiological and involuntary change that is noticable, much less common when a person is giving spontaneous statements based on memory recall.
I'm not saying he's lying, but only that it's the worst cotton mouth I've seen in my experience.
You can’t use simply a dry mouth as deception lol there should be 100 other things to use with it if that’s the case and you don’t need to be a investigator to know that
Yeah sure; and everyone trust police interrogators don't they? He doesn't like the interviewer, that's why he's dry, hoping the interviewer shuts up.
Medication can cause dry mouth
Ok, as a criminal of 30+ years I’ve been interrogated & interviewed by police detectives, attorneys, insurance investigators etc; this includes multiple depositions of 8hrs or more & I’ve sat & told the truth in those situations & I’ve sat & told complete fabrications at other times. And many, many factors led me to have dry mouth during those lengthy interrogations & depositions. One cannot say simply bcuz someone has dry mouth that he’s lying. That’s simply absurd. No disrespect intended. But making a blanket statement like the one you did is over simplifying things to a great degree.
And this is why people don’t trust cops and detectives. Not one of them believes innocent until proven guilty. You guys believe guilty unless they’re rich and have connections. Prove me wrong.
FYI this mans real name was Bradley Alfred Linzy, a known Mob enforcer and hired gun, rumourd to have died in the late 90s in Alabama State penitentiary, but apparently still living , he has 1 living son of the same name " Brad Linzy" who is a current Youruber with several channels including" Guitologist" which is a guitar and amplifier based repair channel.
Yes, I read about that, I know the Guitologist channel, yes, he is Very similar looking to his father ..small world 🤔
Files was in statesville prison in Illinois for crimes against two Illinois leos. Not Alabama.
I believe there’s another interview from 2000 something so don’t think that’s correct
@Nomad7656 either way, that's him
@ratatuilleparker3002 maybe, but his real name is Bradley Linzy.
This interview he said he aimed at Kennedy's eye but hit his temple. In the other interview, he said he aimed at the temple. i would like to see the picture of him at the shooting.
I was confused when Files was using his face to show where his shot hit JFK. He pointed to the right side of his face. And he said something about left side, right side. What confused me was I imagined Files was to the left of the car so wouldn't he point to the left side of his face? Could someone help me understand this? (Approximately 1:09:00 on the film)
It is easy to understand. He is an obvious liar from the opening statements about his supposed military service. He made the whole thing up.
