Bloody Treason: The Assassination of John F. Kennedy

[Greg Burnham]

From the article link above:

"Since the barbiturates found in Dorothy's system take a half hour to an hour to start working and then reach a dangerous peak level, this implies she consumed them between 2:30 and 3 a.m. The authorities should have pinned down her whereabouts at that time. As Lee Israel told this magazine, ordinarily in the case of a woman's suspicious death, the police would "go out and at least ask pro forma questions of the people who were around her the night before." But the New York cops "did nothing. I mean nothing." The lead detective on the case, who had six children, abruptly resigned from the NYPD without a pension a short time later, moved out of town, and opened a pricey restaurant.:

This story was written and published in 2007, why do articles like this seem to appear all the time regarding the assassination and no one persue's them any further then the research stage for the article itself. How are submissions not made in light of this article to re-investigate the case of Dorothy's death. You have the hair dresser, the beau, the medical examiner and the detective all still alive at this stage who could be interviewed under oath due to the fact that it is a murder case.?

It amazes me how often nothing is taken further by D.A's or by family members who are the victims of such crimes when reporters find evidence that contradicts the official findings.

Great questions all, A.J. -- Very apropos to the situation. You said: "Why do articles like this seem to appear all the time regarding the assassination and no one persue's them any further?"

However, no offense intended, but why don't you pursue this further? You asked why others don't--so why don't you?

In my view, oftentimes the family is in a state of extreme grief upon discovery of the unexpected death of a revered loved one. That alone might account for their "less than exemplary" investigative skills or demands for justice in the immediate aftermath of the terminal incident. Think about it...then take action. Of course, you could claim--rightfully--that the case is cold on this one. And it probably is. But don't fault the author or the media for not having doggedly pursued it. The opportunity is yours! Embrace it--
