Dead Wrong: Straight Facts on the Country's Most Controversial Cover-Ups

This book looks at the mysterious deaths of 10 subjects by laying out how the official rulings contradict the ballistics, eye-witness accounts, laws of physics, and reason.Marilyn Monroe had so many drugs in her system that there was enough to kill 15 people even though she had no access to that amount of pills. She also had no traces of pills in her stomach, leading to the conclusion that she was killed with an enema, possibly by the Mob in order to create scandal for the Kennedys. Read the chain of events of the day and evening leading up to her death and the aftermath of the circus that ensued to cover up the murder.See the lunacy of the claim that Oswald shot JFK in the front of the head while perched in the book depository building, which was behind the motorcade. Learn how Sirhan Sirhan shot RFK with a gun held three inches from the back of the senator's head, all while standing 10 feet in front of him. Martin Luther King's sniper stood much higher and to King's right, not directly across the way where authorities claim James Earl Ray made the shot. Even King's family didn't believe Ray to be guilty and in 1999 a jury concluded that King was murdered in a conspiracy "including government agencies."Vince Foster, lawyer to the Clintons, was found dead in a park of a suicide in which no gun was found at the scene, and then a black gun turned up in his hand, and then a silver one. His body and the ground under him showing little blood and tissue matter-- and impossible feat for such a graphic and horrific way to die.Read how eyewitnesses were forced and intimidated into changing their stories in order to match official findings. Learn about LBJ's hitmen, Oswald's link to the kill Castro plot, Aristotle Onassis' claim that he fronted the money for Bobby Kennedy's assassination- and even more shocking revelations that are neatly presented in this ground-breaking, fascinating account of history and the people who have been subverting the truth for years. "Dead Wrong" is scientific, meticulous and detailed, yet reads like a gripping suspense novel. I look forward to reading more from Richard Belzer and David Wayne. Don't miss the most talked about true crime book of the summer.

Question: Where were your outraged cries for "accountability" when John and Robert Kennedy, Martin Luther King, Marilyn Monroe, Frank Olson, Henry Marshall, Fred Hampton, Vince Foster, and David Kelly were executed? (Answer: If you believe they were killed by Oswald, Sirhan, Ray, overdose, etc., you probably believe in Santa and the Easter Bunny.) While not a well-written account, this is a thorough, documented and detailed expose as to what happened, how it happened, and-most importantly-how it DIDN'T happen. Those nagging feelings you've had in your gut all along about The Event vs The Truth? Listen to your gut. Our government (and almost all governments, to be honest) is blatantly and appallingly corrupt to the core, with no regard for human life, either individual or collective. "Accountability?" Oh, that's just FOX "news" learning a new word, sort of like "ObamaCare," which they made up, and which, of course, doesn't exist. What they're referring to is "The Affordable Health Care Act" passed by a Republican-majority congress, but it sure sounds negative and "scarier" as ObamaCare, doesn't it? "Accountability???" Who have we held accountable for rigging the 2000 and 2004 elections? For ignoring the urgent warnings of imminent attack from the FBI, the CIA, the FAA and the Dept. of Justice just days before 9/11? For waging an undeclared war (in violation of the Constitution, which states only Congress has the power to declare war) against Iraq, which had a) Nothing to do with 9/11, and b) Had (contrary to all the "intelligence" presented by Cheney, Bush, Powell, Rice, and Ashcroft) NO WMD's? For killing and maiming hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqi men, women and children, and over twenty thousand American service men and women? For, with malice and forethought, plunging our country into the worst economic disaster since The Great Depression in 1929, in order to cripple the incoming Democratic administration, as well as to keep its' citizens oppressed, broke, fearful and subservient? For failing to punish EVEN ONE Wall Street Con Artist in connection with the Sub-Prime Mortgage scandal that contributed to the financial collapse. And for revealing the identity of Valerie Plame, a covert CIA operative, for which Lewis Libby took the blame (even though it is well known that Cheney and Bush ordered that "hit"), was sentenced to 30 months in prison, and a $250,000 fine-a sentence which was commuted by-yep: G.W.B. When in fact, disclosing the identity of and undercover operative is a treasonable offense, punishable by death. "Accountability?" Dream on. But know your enemy. Also recommended: "Classified Woman-The Sibel Edmonds Story, and "American Conspiracies" by Jesse Ventura.

There are dozens of books out there that offer up a veritable smorgasbord of conspiracy theories based on everything from the death of Marilyn Monroe to the assasinations of JFK, Martin Luther King, and Bobby Kennedy. I've read many of them. Some are extremely good, but others range from o.k. to just plain awful. This is one of the best books that I've read.Rather than devoting the entire contents of a book to one case, Dead Wrong looks at nine cases where the official conclusions were so full of holes that they more closely resembled a piece of swiss cheese than irrefutable facts that were supported by science and logic.Without getting mired in repetitive detail or getting lost along the way, the authors tell the reader why these stories/myths don't hold up under close examination using declassified evidence and scientific data to support their point of view. They break everything down in it's simplest form so the reader can follow all the facts and draw his/her own conclusions. However, they do float possible scenarios which are fairly shocking considering some of the individuals involved. Do I give their educated opinions credence? Yes because they are logical and intelligent.There was so much covered that I found myself not only shocked but grateful that the details were covered simply and precisely. This book is well written and extremely interesting and makes the perfect case for why we can be dead wrong if we believe everything can be tied up in a neat little package without any thought.

I was riveted by this book - just found myself reading it at every opportunity I was granted. It is written in a way that speaks to everyone - its easy to follow timelines and theories, you don't need to have spent time reading and understanding the backgrounds of the people discussed in this book before starting. You can just open it and start!So that's what I did.It is well referenced, enabling those of us who want to read on and watch associated videos an easy pathway.It lays out facts - doesn't tell you what to think, but presents the actual facts - and I felt that in each case, I came away with enough background to form my own conclusions.That's exactly what a book of this kind should do. Richard Belzer and David Wayne communicate well to the reader and present you with facts that allow you to form your own opinion.Pick this up and read it - you won't want to put it down!

Authors Richard Belzer and David Wayne have obviously spent many years researching the murders of Marilyn Monroe, John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King and Bobby Kennedy along with numerous other notable figures. Their results?Don't trust the official verdict....it is usually full of holes. There is a lot of new evidence here about the assassinations of the Kennedy brothers and who stood to benefit from the death of Marilyn Monroe and Martin Luther King. If you are convinced that you've heard all the evidence relating to these deaths and need no more information, then this book is definitely not for you. However, if, like so many other people, you have nagging doubts, this book will not bore you.

This subject matter is rigjt up my street but i haven't been able to get into this book because of the mish mash layout on each page.

Pretty good read I had no idea of the web they could weave, you hear stories but if there is any truth to these stories then it is an eye opener.

Extremely readable & full of non disputive facts. Read and come to your own conclusions.
