I am studying the civil war and especially the assassination of Lincoln. A question is very much bothering me and it would be of great help to me if you answer.
Is there any evidence (and if there is, please state or link your resources) whether Booth actually killed Lincoln, or whether Booth he was forced to? If not Booth, then who else? John Parker, the faulty bodyguard? Or Crooks? What about Mary Tod Lincoln? Or Harry Clay Ford?
Either way, if I were presenting this in a court, what would some tricks be to convince a judge/jury that Booth is innocent?
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED!!!

Like the assassination of Kennedy there is no proof just some real nice conjecture.
