In short – we think this story is bogus: The Plain Truth….
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) — Weeks
before the 50th anniversary of President John F. Kennedy’s assassination
this fall, ReelzChannel will take another look at the killing in a
docudrama that suggests a Secret Service agent fired one of the bullets
that felled Kennedy.
“JFK: The Smoking Gun” is based on the
work of retired Australian police Detective Colin McLaren and the book
“Mortal Error: The Shot that Killed JFK” by Bonar Menninger.

McLaren spent four years combing
through evidence from Kennedy’s death on Nov. 22, 1963, in Dallas. He
and Menninger also relied on ballistics evidence from an earlier book by
Howard Donahue.
The two-hour docudrama airs Nov. 3 in
the U.S., Canada and Australia. It suggests that agent George Hickey
fired one of the bullets that hit Kennedy. Hickey, who is now dead, was
riding in the car behind Kennedy’s limo that day.
“What we’re saying is that we believe
it was a tragic accident in the heat of that moment,” McLaren told the
Television Critics Association on Sunday.
