"Ford tampered with report on JFK shooting"

Kate Watson-Smyth - Thursday 3 July 1997 00:02

The former US president, Gerald Ford, altered a key sentence in the Warren Commission Report to strengthen its conclusion that John F. Kennedy was killed by a single bullet, it emerged yesterday.

The effect of his editing was to suggest that a single bullet struck the assassinated president in the neck and severely wounded Texas Governor John Connally - a crucial element in its controversial finding that Lee Harvey Oswald was the sole gunman.

Ford's changes tend to support the single-bullet theory by making a specific point that the bullet entered Kennedy's body "at the back of his neck" rather than in his uppermost back, as the commission staff originally wrote. Ford said last night that it was a small change, one intended to clarify the report and not to alter history.

Parallels

The JFK assassination bears remarkable resemblance to a coup d’etat in Guatemala engineered by the CIA under the direction of Allen Dulles during the Eisenhower administration in the 1950s, contends WND senior writer Jerome Corsi, author of the newly released “Who Really Killed Kennedy? 50 Years Later: Stunning New Revelations about the JFK Assassination.”

The CIA plan was to shoot and kill the Guatemalan head-of-state and place the blame for the assassination on a “patsy,” a person innocent of the crime, who in turn would be murdered to frustrate any subsequent criminal investigation or trial.

Both assassins, as Corsi points out, were ex-military who left the service expressing distinct sympathies for communist Russia.

John Martino

John Vincent Martino (Atlantic City, 3 August 1911 - Miami Beach, 3 August 1975[1]) was an American casino security systems technician who was spent 40 months in jail in Havana, and later published the book I Was Castro's Prisoner (1963), which was ghost written by Nathaniel Weyl. Martino went to Havana in 1958 for the opening of the Hotel Deauville owned by mobster Santo Trafficante Jr. to install security systems for the casino. He was arrested in 1959 together on charges of smuggling money. His 16 year old son was also held at the same time, but released after four days. Martino was held at both Castillo de Atarés and El Principe prisons.[2] His release and return to Miami in October 1962 gained him some status among anti-Castro exiles.
