I never read Hersh's Dark Side of Camelot, because it looked like a lot of trash mixed with a little bit of useful information. But Joseph includes some stuff from Hersh's book about Kenny O'Donnell's growing discontent with the administration and some emerging scandals concerning him in 1963.
I wonder if O'Donnell played a role similar to Fredo in The Godfather Part II, who unwittingly helps people nearly assassinate his brother Michael. O'Donnell might have been told any number of stories by the plotters to get his cooperation. And then afterword, the guilt caused him to drink himself to death.
