Join us again to hear Richard Hutley. For those that joined us in October for Richards talk on Policing past & present you are in for another fascinating evening and interactive talk.

"WHO SHOT JFK? (Or who didn't)
November 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy was assassinated as he rode in a motorcade through Dealey Plaza in downtown Dallas, Texas.
But who shot him? Oswald? The Man on the Grassy Knole? Was it 3, 4 or 10 shots? The Magic Bullet?  What did LBJ have to gain? Was George H Bush involved? Who was the Umbrella Man?
Factual history is not what they tell you!
I don't present conspiracy theories. These are facts based on accounts given and facts verified - You make your own mind up"
