Episode 210 is the first in a series covering Joseph Milteer and the radical right wing of America. On November 9th, 1963, just seven days after the secret service had thwarted the plot in Chicago, an informant working for the intelligence unit of the Miami police department William Somersett captured an extraordinary conversation on a surveillance tape. As Somersett and Milteer carried on a conversation in Somersett's Miami apartment, Milteer would reveal that a plan was already in the works to assassinate president Kennedy and that it would be done with a high powered rifle with a scope from an office building. He would go on to say that a suspect would be picked up very shortly after the shooting in order to throw off the investigation. This was exactly what happened in Dealey Plaza some 13 days later on November 22nd, 1963. Was this a lucky guess by Milteer or was his foreknowledge real.
Even as early as 1964, rumors and serious concerns over the lone gunman theory and the evidence that might contravene it, were becoming a major concern for the government and the commission. Conspiracy theories were contrary to the government's stated narrative from the very beginning. This real-life story is more fascinating than fiction. No matter whether you are a serious researcher or a casual student, you will enjoy the fact filled narrative and story as we relive one of the most shocking moments in American History. An event that changed the nation and changed the world forever.
