Remembering: JFK's Assassination

On November 22, 1963 President John Fitzgerald Kennedy, along with other important figures, took part in a ten mile motorcade parade, through Dallas, Texas.

As the motorcade moved past the Texas School Book Depository Building shots were fired.

With a shot to the head, JFK would be pronounced dead when he finally reached the hospital.

Within hours Vice President Lyndon Johnson, who had been just three cars back, would be sworn in.

Lee Harvey Oswald would be arrested for the assassination, but would never face trial, as two days later Jack Ruby would kill him, as he was being moved between jails.

Ruby would be charged and convicted with first degree murder.

JFK was the fourth US President to be assassinated.

In 1865 Abraham Lincoln, was the first, followed by James Garfield in 1881 and William McKinley in 1901.

Kennedy's death has the most controversy around it, as it has become one of the most talked about conspiracy theory's, in history.
