167: There's No Way Just One Man Killed JFK: World-Renowned Forensic Pathologist Dr. Cyril Wecht on Why There's More to this American Mystery than We've Been Taught

Who really killed JFK? Are you one of the many people who believe there is more to the story than the Warren Commission report? Then you’ll want to listen to this interview with world-renowned forensic pathologist, Dr. Cyril Wecht, as we dive deep into this decades-old mystery. We talk: * Why Dr. Wecht says the "one shooter" theory is bunk * Where he believes the second gunman was stationed * Why America remains riveted with the JFK assassination * The tension between JFK and the CIA, and if he believes that played a part in the President's killing * The "missing brain" * Why details of the case are still classified ...and so much more. More on the guest: Renowned forensic pathologist Dr. Wecht has consulted on some of the biggest murder and mysterious death cases that have happened in modern times, including Robert F. Kennedy, Elvis Presley, Kurt Cobain, JonBenét Ramsey, the Branch Davidian incident, Vincent Foster, Laci Peterson, Daniel and Anna Nicole Smith. During his career, Wecht performed more than 14,000 autopsies. He is a currently a clinical professor at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine and an adjunct professor of law at Duquesne University. His new book, The JFK Assassination Dissected, is a detailed look at the events of November 22, 1963, and Dr. Wecht's take on what really happened that day. From questions about who Lee Harvey Oswald really was; to the "magic bullet theory" and why Dr. Wecht says there's no way this was the work of just one shooter; to questions about the lack of experience of the pathologists who were assigned to perform the autopsy, no detail is left untouched.
