  For over six decades, the assassination of President John F. Kennedy has been shrouded in mystery, deception, and conspiracy. Now, shocking new confessions from the Grassy Knoll threaten to rewrite history and challenge everything we thought we knew about that fateful day in Dallas.
  Was Lee Harvey Oswald truly a lone gunman, or was he merely a patsy in a much larger plot in which the mafia was everywhere along with the C.I.A. after Operation Mongoose to assassinate Fidel Castro? Who were the shadowy figures seen near the Grassy Knoll moments before the fatal shots were fired? And why has crucial evidence remained buried, altered, or hidden from public view for so long?
  In this explosive episode, we examine firsthand confessions, recently declassified documents, and expert forensic analysis that bring us closer than ever to the truth behind JFK’s assassination. We dive deep into the possible involvement of the CIA, the Mafia, rogue intelligence operatives, and even high-ranking government officials—exploring how they may have orchestrated the most infamous political hit in American history.
  Through exclusive interviews, eyewitness testimony, and never-before-heard confessions, we take you to Dealey Plaza, back to November 22, 1963, to uncover the truth behind one of history’s most debated assassinations.
  Who really pulled the trigger? Who ordered the hit? And why does the official story still leave so many unanswered questions?

  Behind the polished image of John F. Kennedy’s rise to power was a world few dared to talk about—the Irish criminal underground that helped shape his political ascent.

  We explore the deep ties between the Kennedy family and the Irish underworld, uncovering how bootlegging money, political maneuvering, and even mob connections paved the way for JFK’s meteoric rise. Did figures from the Irish criminal underworld manipulate elections? How involved was Joseph Kennedy, JFK’s father, in leveraging illicit networks to secure his family’s future? And what role did these supporters play in the power struggles that followed JFK into the White House?
  With newly uncovered FBI files, firsthand accounts, and expert analysis, this episode dives deep into the intersection of crime, politics, and loyalty—where the promise of the American Dream clashed with the harsh realities of the criminal underground.
  Was the Kennedy dynasty truly built on legitimacy, or was it partially bankrolled by figures operating in the shadows? And how much did these connections contribute to the larger conspiracy theories surrounding JFK’s assassination?

• February 11, 2025"FBI vs. The Underworld: The Dixie Mafia, Gotti Surveillance, and The Crazy Don"

  Step inside the FBI’s most gripping investigations as we expose the criminal empires, high-tech surveillance, and relentless takedowns that defined American law enforcement’s war on organized crime. In this special three-part series, we uncover the secret world of the Dixie Mafia, the FBI’s multi-million dollar operation to bring down John Gotti, and the shocking case of the Crazy Don—one of the most erratic and violent Mafia bosses in history.
  The Dixie Mafia – The Southern Syndicate of Crime
  While New York’s Five Families dominated headlines, a brutal, lawless crime syndicate operated in the shadows of the Deep South. The Dixie Mafia wasn’t bound by tradition—it was a network of hitmen, drug traffickers, and corrupt law enforcement officials who ruled with violence and terror. We uncover the origins of this loosely structured yet highly dangerous criminal enterprise, from their ties to casinos and moonshine bootlegging to the violent contract killings that put them on the FBI’s radar.
  The Hunt for John Gotti – How the FBI Spent Millions to Take Down the Teflon Don
  John Gotti was untouchable—or so he thought. For years, the "Teflon Don" outmaneuvered the FBI, walking free after multiple high-profile trials. But behind the scenes, the Bureau was waging an expensive, high-stakes intelligence war, deploying military-grade surveillance technology, wiretaps, and informants to infiltrate the Gambino crime family. This episode dives deep into the FBI’s relentless pursuit, the secrets caught on tape, and how they finally got the evidence needed to take down Gotti once and for all.
  The Crazy Don – The FBI’s Files on a Madman in the Mafia
  Some mobsters operated in silence, but the Crazy Don was a loose cannon, feared as much for his unpredictable outbursts as his brutality. In this chilling episode, we examine how his erratic behavior led to reckless decisions, internal betrayals, and an FBI investigation that exposed one of the Mafia’s most unhinged figures. Through surveillance records, courtroom drama, and firsthand FBI accounts, we reveal the shocking truth behind the Crazy Don and his chaotic reign.
  From the backwoods killings of the Dixie Mafia to the wiretapped whispers that sealed John Gotti’s fate and the FBI’s case against an unpredictable mob boss, this three-part special brings you into the heart of America’s most dangerous underworld investigations.
