Dead Persons:
Robert F. Kennedy (Would have been 79) 1925 - see #1 for today
&
Jim Garrison (I) (Would have been 83) 1921 - Died age 70
Born 20 November 1921 - Knoxville, Iowa
Date of death 21 October 1992 - New Orleans, Louisiana. (heart failure)
Birth name: Earling Carothers Garrison
Former F.B.I. agent / Fought as a pilot during the 2nd World War.
Jim Garrison is so far the only one to hold a trial in relation to the murder of USA
President John F. Kennedy in 1963.
Jim Garrison was at the time a very skilled district attorney of New Orleans.
Three years later, he has a conversation with a governor, which arose his suspicion of the
whole affair, mainly the fact that Lee Harvey Oswald could hardly have been the lone assassin.
Links from Oswald lead to offices in New Orleans.
Garrison's investigations ended with the trial against Clay Shaw in 1967.
Shaw was acquitted, but the evidence against him presented by Garrison trembled USA,
and triggered a discussion about the assassin of Kennedy which is still at its peak now,
30 years later.
The focus of Garrison's evidence was to prove there was a conspiracy against JFK,
and that the investigations conducted by The Warren Commission were totally mistargeted.
This Mr. Garrisson did to the extreme.
An investigation in 1979 found that "there may well have been more than one assassin".
He appears very briefly in the Oscar winning film 'JFK' (1991) (about his own investigations),
as leader of the official investigation team, Earl Warren. Kevin Costner plays Jim Garrison..
