Around 5 p.m. on 8 December 1980, Lennon and Ono left the Dakota to supervise the transfer of some of the Double Fantasy album numbers to singles. David Geffen said that more than 700,000 album copies had already been sold up to that time. As they were leaving the Dakota, they were approached by several people seeking autographs. Among them was Mark David Chapman, and Lennon signed an autograph on the Double Fantasy album cover for him. A picture was taken by another fan while he was signing Chapman's album, capturing killer and victim on film only a few hours before Lennon's murder.

The government hated John, for obvious reasons, and on several occasions, attempted to deport him for his political stand. Which brings up the question, "Did the government hire Chapman to assassinate John Lennon"? It is very possible. But then you ask yourself, "If the government hired this man to kill Lennon, then why is he in prison"? To cover him up, make it look like the government had nothing to do with it. I can see them pulling something like that. The way it happened was pretty ridiculous, too. Chapman was loitering around John's apartment, and not one person suspected anything. Unbelievable. In some regards, you can thank amateur photographer Paul Goresh for John's death, as he made oral contact with Chapman on several occasions, Chapman continually asking him about Lennon. Any sensible person would realize, "Hey, this guy could be a real threat to John Lennon". Obviously that was not the case, due to people's stupidity, especially Paul's, as he was the only person who made oral contact with the piece of trash.
