The newly released JFK, RFK, and MLK files are raising old questions in a new way, and forcing Americans to look again at the power structures, criminal networks, and intelligence connections that may have shaped some of the darkest chapters in our history. In this episode of Connecting the Dots with Dan Happel, Dan examines the Kennedy assassination not as an isolated act of violence, but as part of a much broader web involving organized crime, intelligence agencies, political betrayal, and institutional coverup.
A major focus of this discussion is legendary reporter Dorothy Kilgallen, whose relentless investigation into the JFK assassination and the Jack Ruby trial led her into dangerous territory. As she dug deeper into inconsistencies surrounding Lee Harvey Oswald, Ruby, and the official “lone gunman” narrative, she appeared to be closing in on answers that powerful interests did not want exposed. Her mysterious death, along with the disappearance of her notes, remains one of the most haunting side stories connected to the Kennedy case.
Dan is joined by investigative reporter and author Mark W. Shaw, whose work on Dorothy Kilgallen and the Kennedy assassination has helped bring renewed attention to the unanswered questions surrounding her death and what she may have uncovered. This is a conversation about assassinations, coverups, political corruption, and whether the American people have ever been given the truth about what really happened.
