One version of the assassination of J. Kennedy... Several people at the top of the government conceived and carried out a real coup. I know from one of the big mobsters that the CIA was in trouble with the mafia at the time, not everyone in the mafia welcomed the proposal to assassinate President Kennedy. How could the head of the world’s finest law enforcement on the day of the assassination claim with such certainty that there was no conspiracy and Kennedy was shot dead by lone killer Lee Harvey Oswald? Kennedy's body was taken to the hospital for an autopsy long before the official casket limousine arrived. It was necessary to replace Kennedy's brain as two-thirds of his brain flew through a huge wound at the back of his head. They had to do everything possible to ensure there was no medical evidence of a shot being fired from the front. I resigned from the commission when I realized that the commission did not intend to know the full truth about this murder. I brought some guns to Dallas in Texas. With the sole purpose of assassinating President John F. Kennedy. close

Pablo Escobar was the richest, most powerful drug kingpin in the world, ruling the Medellin Cartel with an iron fist. Andres Escobar was the biggest soccer star in Colombia. The two were not related, but their fates were inextricably-and fatally-intertwined.

It was there, in a game against the U.S., that Andres committed one of the most shocking mistakes in soccer history, scoring an "own goal" that eliminated his team from the competition and ultimately cost him his life. The Two Escobars is a riveting examination of the intersection of sports, crime, and politics. close
