Episode 138 - The End of Innocence - Do you believe James Files?

This episode revisits the confession that keeps popping back up, tracing how a Houston investigator, Joe West, reportedly tracked down an Illinois inmate and recorded an interview presented as unedited, then laying out Files’ core story about being in Dealey Plaza, the position he says he chose by the knoll, and the wider cast he alleged was involved, including mob figures and shadowy intelligence-linked connections; we also cover his most specific details about supposed planning and his notorious claim about leaving a bitten casing, before weighing why many researchers and the FBI reject the confession and why some still argue it belongs in the JFK debate about November 22, 1963.
