Kennedy Assassination: Revelation of Withheld Evidence

In a recently published book titled 'The Final Witness', Secret Service agent Paul Landis discloses his decision to withhold critical evidence from the Kennedy assassination. While at Parkland, Landis discovered a bullet, mostly pristine, on the back seat of the limousine. Fearing its misplacement, he pocketed it and did not report it to his superiors or any investigating committee for nearly 60 years. This revelation challenges the prevailing narrative and raises questions about the lone gunman theory.
