Gerald Ford's Role in the JFK Assassination Cover-Up (11/11/06;
updated 3/12/07).
Warren Commission member Congressman Gerald Ford pressed the panel to change its
description of the bullet wound in President Kennedy's back and place it higher
to make "the magic bullet" theory plausible, enabling the Warren Commission to
conclude that Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone gunman. Ford was J. Edgar Hoover's
informant on the commission and did the FBI director's bidding to squelch the
investigation from naming other assassins. When a Dallas County deputy constable
heard shots coming from the nearby grassy knoll, he rushed there to find veteran
CIA asset Bernard Barker, posing as a Secret Service agent. No Secret Service
agents had been assigned to cover the grassy knoll and all accompanied President
Kennedy to the hospital.
