The show didn't really deal with whether Oswald acted "alone" or whether he was a patsy - still leaves open 'was it a mob it? Was it a commie plot? Was it Castro? Or was it just a lone wack job? But, it sure demolished all the 'magic bullet' nonsense, and the contentions re the amount of time between shots and whether someone could get them off. I'm not saying 'yeah' or 'nay,' just don't write off the Oswald did it theory until you've seen this thing. Last comment on this subject.
