The idea that George Hickey accidentally shot JFK is on par with the idea that Greer shot him, but for some reason, it gets a lot more press. The book Mortal Error by Bonehead Bonar Menninger has gotten quite a lot of publicity, and there was even a tv show about it.

Well, it's all a plot- a plot to ridicule the whole idea of conspiracy, to turn it into a laughing stock. 

Kennedy had already been shot BEFORE Hickey ever picked up his AR-15 rifle. So, are we supposed to believe that there was a plot to kill Kennedy but then superimposed on it was an accidental shooting by Hickey? That it just got piled on? 

But, why would they cover that up? To protect Hickey? To save face for the Secret Service? 

Hickey said repeatedly that he didn't pick up the rifle until after the fatal head shot.

"At the end of the last report I reached to the bottom of the car and picked up the AR 15 rifle, cocked and loaded it, and turned to the rear. At this point the cars were passing under the over-pass and as a result we had left the scene of the shooting. I kept the AR 15 rifle ready as we proceeded at a high rate of speed to the hospital."

He's not holding a rifle in Betzner. He's not holding a rifle in Willis. And he is certainly not holding a rifle in Altgens, where he is completely turned around.



I have said repeatedly that that wasn't Hickey, and it wasn't. It really wasn't. But, the real Hickey had to be there underneath it, and if he was brandishing a rifle, it would have have shown in the picture, and it would have been impossible to cover it up. It was 1963; they didn't have Photoshop. There were limits. 

The only image of Hickey holding the rifle is this one, and it's well after the shooting. It's after they left Dealey Plaza.


Look at the size of that thing. He obviously wasn't holding it in the Altgens photo, which was snapped just a few seconds before the fatal head shot. 

And, how could the occupants of that convertible not know it if Hickey had fired a shot? And remember, they weren't all Secret Service agents, loyal to the agency. Two of JFK's Presidential aides were in the car. One of them was Ken O'Donnell, JFK's defacto Chief of Staff, and a close friend of his going back to his Harvard days. O'Donnell was one of the "Irish Mafia". 

FROM MAN OF THE HOUSE, by Tip O’Neill, Random House: 1987. page 178:

I was never one of those people who had doubts or suspicions about the Warren Commission’s report on the President’s death. But five years after Jack died, I was having dinner with Kenny O’Donnell and a few other people at Jimmy’s Harborside Restaurant in Boston, and we got to talking about the assassination.
I was surprised to hear O’Donnell say that he was sure he had heard two shots that came from behind the fence.
"That’s not what you told the Warren Commission," I said.
"You’re right," he replied. "I told the FBI what I had heard but they said it couldn’t have happened that way and that I must have been imagining things. So I testified the way they wanted me to. I just didn’t want to stir up any more pain and trouble for the family." "I can’t believe it," I said. "I wouldn’t have done that in a million years. I would have told the truth."
"Tip, you have to understand. The family—everybody wanted this thing behind them."
Dave Powers was with us at dinner that night, and his recollection of the shots was the same as O’Donnell’s.


So, O'Donnell cow-towed to the FBI and falsified his testimony to the Warren Commission about what he heard. It's awful that he did that. But, you notice that he didn't say: 

"Actually, Tip, the Secret Service agent George Hickey was sitting right behind me, and his rifle went off. It scared the shit out of me because it was so close. That's what blew JFK's head off. I told the FBI, but they said it would be too painful for the family to deal with that. So, I testified the way they wanted me to."

This is ridiculous. The noise of that shot at such close range would have startled the hell out of all of them. The idea that they wouldn't notice it and react to it is absurd. The idea that they would all lie about it, including O'Donnell and Powers is absurd. 

How could such a lie even have been arranged and agreed upon? Did Roberts turn around and say, as they were racing to the hospital:

Roberts:

"Now listen everybody, we're not going to tell what happened. We don't want to get Georgie-boy in trouble. And we don't want to disgrace the agency. So, none of you say a word about what George did. You hear me?"

O'Donnell:

"But, don't you think people on the street saw it? How can we possibly deny it? How can we lie about it? 

Roberts:

"Oh, you can lie. And you will lie."


It's stark raving lunacy. Furthermore, Hickey did NOT pick up the rifle until after the shooting was over. 

I seriously think this is a plot to discredit and disparage and ridicule the whole JFK conspiracy movement. 

Howard Donahue, the original fool who surfaced this inane idea, may have beguiled himself into believing it. But, he's long dead. Who's helping Bonehead Bonar? That's what I want to know. Why is the media paying attention to this and giving it air time? Why don't they do a show on the Oswald Project and the Two Oswalds with their parallel lives? Talk about a fascinating true-life story. And why don't they do a show on the Doorman controversy, showing images of Oswald and Doorman, where you see the same man and the same clothes?



Mortal Error is noise. It is a distraction, a mocking distraction. And the wily knaves are harnessing it to their advantage.
