Any thoughts on the thinking that secret service agent Hickey accidentally shot JFK? Haven't done a lot of research on it but it seems plausible on the surface. Would explain there was a rush to get the body out of Dallas and not in the hands of local coroners." There were reports of the 2nd and 3rd shots being in close succession, possibly faster than a bolt action rifle could shoot. Like just about every other theory, lots of question, but few answers...

I love most of Penn & Teller's BS show. Usually good stuff on there. If the video was in response to my post, Hickey was behind JFK, and thus his head would have moved backward as the video and physics would suggest. That is the only reason I find the Hickey angle compelling. I don't jump into the CIA/MAFIA/Castro conspiracy crap.

I haven't read about that one but on that note, didn't it come out a few years ago that it wasn't Sirhan Sirhan's gun that killed RFK, but rather botched return fire from his Secret Service agents?
Even if true, it doesn't absolve Sirhan Sirhan of firing AT Bobby. He still caused his death.

I'm not big on conspiracy theories (unless a lib is at the bottom of it).
I heard this one too and really don't think it's possible. You have two guys standing on each side of the trail car and 4 secret services guys riding inside the convertible. One of them would have had to either shoot through the windshield or stand up and shoot over the wind shield and that would have been witnessed by a lot of people in my opinion. Doesn't seem possible.
I am not sure about the other vehicles in the motorcaid so I am not sure if this is the vehicle this theory is talking about.
I watched Killing Kennedy and that story makes the most sense in my mind...but I'm just dumb conservative who watches Bill O'Reilly on Fox News.
As I said I haven't really looked into it but Hickey was in the trail car directly behind Kennedy so it would have been a behind the head shot. As I hear the theory, after the first shot rang out, hickey went to grab the AR15? off the floor (which was a tight fit) and as he brought it around, the driver stepped on the brakes, the caused Hickey to lean forward and possibly pull the trigger as he swung the rifle around and thus shoot Kennedy. The two initial issues I have with this are 1. Safety would have been on, not that this is sure fire way to prevent a firing.. 2. He wouldn't have had his trigger finger inside the trigger guard until ready to fire.
I watched Killing Kennedy as well, very well done. Rob Lowe did a decent job as Kennedy.
