The story about Watergate burglar E. Howard Hunt’s near-deathbed confession to his son about the CIA’s involvement in the JFK assassination is not new. The confession occurred in 2004, and Rolling Stone wrote about it back in 2007. Still, relatively few have heard about Hunt's confession, so on the 55th anniversary of JFK’s death, it’s definitely worth revisiting.
In this video, Hunt named then-Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson and a handful of CIA spooks as the cabal behind the assassination of John F. Kennedy.
Hunt described being invited into the “big event” at a Miami safehouse in 1963. Others named in the plot:
- Frank Sturgis, an anti-Castro paramilitary closely associated with Hunt. Sturgis was one of the Watergate burglars.
- David Morales, Chief of Operations at the CIA's JMWAVE station in Miami. Morales himself told a few close associates of his involvement.
- David Phillips, CIA propaganda specialist and later Chief of Western Hemisphere Division. Phillips was assigned to Mexico City during the mysterious trip of Lee Harvey Oswald, or someone using his name, to that city in the fall of 1963.
- Antonio Veciana, Cuban exile leader of Alpha 66. Veciana told the HSCA that a “Maurice Bishop,” thought by many to be Phillips, pointed out Lee Harvey Oswald to him.
- William Harvey, a CIA officer who ran the ZR/RIFLE “executive action” program. Harvey fell out of favor with the Kennedys when he sent sabotage teams into Cuba during the 1962 Missile Crisis.
- Cord Meyer, a high-level CIA officer whose ex-wife Mary Meyer was having an affair with JFK.
- French Gunman Grassy Knoll. Hunt's chart included an unnamed French hit man on the infamous grassy knoll.
- Lyndon Johnson, Vice-President.
Hunt says he declined active participation but did have a “benchwarmer” role in the plot. In the tape excerpt, Hunt made no claims which would prove his allegations. However, the people he names have all been suspects in the assassination for some time, and many of them worked closely together in anti-Castro operations.
So, there you have it. According to E. Howard Hunt, LBJ had Kennedy killed and the plot was carried out by the CIA. But, there is so much more evidence of a CIA involvement in the JFK assassination. Have a look at these related articles:
