I'm a newcomer here at the Education Forum, but I have studied a lot of books about JFK's assassination in recent years, including the writings of Col. Fletcher Prouty, John Newman, James DiEugenio, James Douglass, Phillip Nelson, and others.
Here's my question. It seems quite obvious that the perpetrators of the JFK assassination conducted systematic surveillance and skillful assassinations of key witnesses for many years, even decades. In a few of these cases-- e.g., Mary Pinchot Meyer, Dorothy Kilgallen, and Sam Giancana-- suspected assassins have been named. (One was the alleged U.S. Navy-affiliated witness on the tow path in the Mary Meyer murder case.)
But, has there been much written (and uncovered) about the nature of such a gruesome, multi-decade, domestic assassinations op in the U.S.? It is difficult to imagine anything less than a carefully managed, highly skilled organization like the CIA overseeing these systematic assassinations of American citizens who knew too much. And the targets were carefully selected for "termination," usually at times when they were, apparently, on the verge of talking-- e.g., David Ferie, Mary Meyer, Kilgallen, William Sullivan, Pritzker, Giancana, De Mohrenschildt, etc.-- as if their phones and mail were under surveillance.
