There's speculation whether it was approved by the 5 families or the Commission, but that's just speculation.


What exactly is your point? How hard is it to kill a man driving in an open car, in an area that isn't incredibly secure?


I don't think the Kennedy clan could do anything about it after Johnson became president the next day. Not to mention, JFK's dad ran alcohol distribution with some of the heads of the 5 families during prohibition.
