John F. Kennedy, President of the United States, was assassinated on November 22, 1963, in Dallas, Texas.

Lee Harvey Oswald, a former Marine and employee of the Texas School Book Depository, shot Kennedy from the sixth floor of the building at around 12:30 PM local time.

The Warren Commission, established by President Lyndon B. Johnson to investigate the assassination, concluded that Oswald acted alone in shooting Kennedy.

Oswald was also linked to the Soviet Union and had previously attempted to defect to the USSR.

The FBI's investigation into the assassination, led by Director J. Edgar Hoover, found no evidence of a larger conspiracy involving government agencies or organized crime.

CIA Director John McCone testified before the Warren Commission that there was no intelligence suggesting a plot to assassinate Kennedy.

FBI Agent James Hosty interviewed Lee Harvey Oswald on April 10, 1963, and noted his suspicious behavior and connections to communist organizations.

The House Select Committee on Assassinations (HSCA) later investigated the assassination and concluded that there was likely a conspiracy involving organized crime and government agencies.
