I read a book a few years ago called "Mortal Error" by one of the expert riflemen that were involved in the JFK assasination investigation. The author claimed that Pres. Kennedy was accidentally shot in the head by a Secret Service agent that was riding in the car right behind Kennedy's car. The theory: The agent heard the shot come from the building up above and he reached down and grabbed a Secret Service AR15 machine gun. He tried to stand up to aim the gun towards the sniper, but the car moved and he lost his footing. The machine gun went off- when it was pointed at JFK's head. That's why: witnesses claimed to hear different gun sounds (not backfires), JFK's head exploded the way it did, and the bullet tragectories came out all screwy in the investigation afterwords. When the Secret Service called Robert Kennedy to tell him what happened, they told him that "there has been an ACCIDENT" not that the Pres. was assasinated.
Question:Has anybody heard anything new about this theory?
