31. Ruby • However, the House Select Committee on Assassinations in its 1979 Final Report opined: • …Ruby's shooting of Oswald was not a spontaneous act, in that it involved at least some premeditation. Similarly, the committee believed it was less likely that Ruby entered the police basement without assistance, even though the assistance may have been provided with no knowledge of Ruby's intentions… The committee was troubled by the apparently unlocked doors along the stairway route and the removal of security guards from the area of the garage nearest the stairway shortly before the shooting… There is also evidence that the Dallas Police Department withheld relevant information from the Warren Commission concerning Ruby's entry to the scene of the Oswald transfer

32. The Mob? • The mob supposedly wanted to murder Kennedy.

33. JFK, Mafia, CIA, and Castro • Motive: The CIA tried several times to kill Fidel Castro. In August 1960, Colonel Sheffield Edwards, director of the Office of Security of the CIA)proposed the assassination of Cuban head of state Fidel Castro by Mafia assassins. Between August 1960 and April 1961, the CIA, with the help of the Mafia, pursued a series of plots to poison or shoot Castro.Those allegedly involved included Sam Giancana, Carlos Marcello, Santo Tranficanti Jr. and John Roselli • Operation Mongoose considered poisoned cigars, poisoned diving suits, mafia rub out.

35. Carlos Marcello After becoming President, JFK appointed his brother Robert Kennedy as Attorney General. The two men worked closely together on a wide variety of issues including the attempt to tackle organized crime. In March 1961 Attorney General Robert Kennedy, acting on requests which had been first made to the Eisenhower Administration by former Louisiana state police superintendent Francis Grevemberg, the CIA abducted Marcello and forced him to jump from a C-130 (at night) over Central America. Their plan backfired when Marcello reappeared in New Orleans just two weeks later. On April 4, of that year, Marcello was arrested by the authorities and taken forcibly to Guatemala. Once again, he reappeared in Baton Rouge just two weeks later.
