Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description:
Focusing for the first time on why attorney general Robert F. Kennedy wasnât killed in 1963 instead of on why President John F. Kennedy was, Mark Shaw offers a stunning and provocative assassination theory that leads directly to the family patriarch, Joseph P. Kennedy. Mining fresh information and more than forty new interviews, Shaw weaves a spellbinding narrative involving Mafia don Carlos Marcello; Jack Ruby (Lee Harvey Oswaldâs killer); Rubyâs attorney, Melvin Belli; and, ultimately, the Kennedy brothers and their father.
Shaw addresses these tantalizing questions: Why, shortly after his brotherâs death, did a grief-stricken RFK tell a colleague, âI thought they would get one of us . . . I thought it would be meâ? Why was Belli, an attorney with almost no defense experience (but proven ties to the Mafia), chosen as Jack Rubyâs attorney? How does Belliâs Mafia connection call into question his legal strategy, which ultimately led to the Rubyâs first-degree murder conviction and death sentence? What was Joseph Kennedyâs relationship to organized crime? And how was his insistence that JFK appoint RFK as attorney general tantamount to signing the presidentâs death warrant?
For fifty years, Shaw maintains, researchers investigating the presidentâs murder in Dallas have been looking at the wrong motives and actors. The Poison Patriarch offers a shocking reassessmentâone that is sure to alter the course of future assassination debates.
