LBJ Conspiracy Theory

1. LBJ Conspiracy Theory Olivia Benyamin Jen Keyser Casey Brown Andy Ngyuen Dan Rezaee

2. Statement Vice President at the time, Lyndon B. Johnson, played a key role in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy

3. Motives Greed To replace JFK as president “Both Johnson and I wanted to be president, but the only difference was I wouldn’t kill for it.” ~~Nixon~~ JFK wanted to pick Sen. Stuart Symington to be on the electoral ticket with him

4. Billie Sol Estes Scandal LBJ is connected to other murders, as well; for instance, in his Billie Sol Estes Scandal of 1961 Estes helped with LBJ with agricultural business and received $500,000 from LBJ LBJ tampered with Federal Bureaucracy in order that Estes get grain storage contracts and other profitable perks Estes claims he had been bribed with over $10 million from Johnson Henry Marshall was the investigator on Estes and his corruption; LBJ and his organization had a meeting to discuss what to do about the investigation “ It looks like we will just have to get rid of him.” ~~Johnson~~ Marshall was murdered in June, 1961 as a result of being shot to death 5 times with a bolt action gun At the time, the murder was documented as a suicide

5. Ballot Stuffing Scandal Gov. Allan Shivers placed accusations on Johnson for murder of Sam Smithwick Smithwick threatened Johnson to reveal his Box 13 Ballot Stuffing Scandal of 1948, which is responsible for Johnson’s victory against Coke Stevenson in Democratic Primary

6. More Evidence… The Kennedys and Lyndon Johnson hated each other. JFK was about to pick Sen. Stuart Symington to be Vice President, not Johnson. JFK’s secretary accused Johnson and Sam Rayburn of using former president Hoover’s blackmail on Kennedy to influence JFK’s decision of picking him as VP “They threatened me with problems and I don’t need more problems. I’m going to have enough problems with Nixon.” ~~JFK to his friend Hy Raskin~~ After JFK victory in election, LBJ’s apprentice Bobby Baker told Don Reynolds that JFK would not remain alive for his entire term and he would suffer from a violent death Nixon hired Jack Ruby at request of LBJ Jack Ruby is who murdered Lee Harvey Oswald, the one who took the fall for JFK assassination Oswald shouted “I am a patsy!” to nearby reporters at Dallas jail and Jack Ruby said “If you knew the truth you would be amazed.”

7. First up, there is the testimony of Madeleine Duncan Brown, who was a mistress of LBJ. She remembers clearly going to the house of the richest Texas oil man at the time, Clint Murchinson, and witnessing some of the most powerful men (H.L. Hunt, Richard Nixon, and J. Edgar Hoover) meet behind closed doors. When LBJ came out of the meeting, he told Madeleine that “after tomorrow [November 22nd] those Kennedy SOBs will never embarrass me again. That’s no threat. That’s a promise. There’s even a big clue coming from Jack Ruby, as he’s being led away by the police and followed by a reporter, who asks him about why he shot Oswald. you can hear him saying- “This never would of happened to our beloved president if Adlai Stevenson were the Vice President.” When pressed to clarify what he means by that odd statement, he replies, “The answer is the man in office now.” LBJ! • Next, we have the confessions of infamous Watergate plumber and long-time CIA operative, E. Howard Hunt. Before Hunt died, his son, recorded what has come to be known as his “deathbed confession” into the JFK assassination plot. he puts the blame for the killing of JFK on the CIA and LBJ. • According to Dr. Crenshaw, he took the phone call in the other room, and it was Lyndon Baines Johnson on the other end. LBJ then told Crenshaw that he had one of his men in the ER, and he wanted to get a “confession” out of Oswald if he could. He said, “I believe that LBJ was very fearful that Ruby might not have killed Oswald with the shot and wanted to cover him the best way he knew how.”

8. Had Kennedy NOT died and Johnson become president, Johnson would probably have been forced from office and indicted in the Bobby Baker case. • If President Kennedy had not been slain, the truth about LBJ may have put him in PRISON -- as his grandma predicted -- rather than into the White House.  • And, given his millions in payoffs from Brown & Root (now a subsidiary known as Kellogg, Brown, and Root (KBR) of the huge military construction contractor Halliburton), he also knew that he stood to gain quite a bit in pushing the Vietnam War further into its bloody insanity. Bell Helicopters and General Dynamics were Texas companies, after all, and there were millions of dollars to be made on the slaughter of “slopes” as they were called by US soldiers. Certainly, LBJ didn’t have a problem with making a killing as he was literally ordering the killing.

9. Summary LBJ is responsible for the JFK assassination He was motivated by greed to assume the president’s role Connected to other murders (Billie Sol Estes Scandal, Ballot Stuffing Scandal) Kennedys vs. LBJ rivalry/ Selected as vice president due to his blackmail on Kennedy Jack Ruby hired upon wish of LBJ Madeleine Brown testimony Watergate and Hunt confession
