WHO WROTE THE WARREN REPORT?

The Warren Report, looking into the circumstances of President John Kennedy's assassination in Dallas, Texas, on Nov. 22, 1963, was written by a seven member commission headed by Chief Justice Earl Warren. The commission was named by President Lyndon Johnson.

Also on the commission were Sen. Richard Russell (D Ga.), Sen. John Cooper (R Ky.), Rep. Hale Boggs (D La.), Rep. Gerald Ford (R Mich.), Allan Dullus, former CIA director, and John McCloy, former adviser to President Kennedy.

The main conclusion of the report was that Lee Harvey Oswald, a former U.S. Marine Corps private and a self styled Marxist, "acted alone and without advice or assistance" as he fired the rifle that killed President Kennedy. The report also said that there was nothing to suggest that Oswald and Jack Ruby, the nightclub operator who murdered Oswald, were part of a conspiracy.

Twenty four volumes of testimony were taken by the commission members over a period of several months. The report itself, issued on Sept. 24, 1964, required 260,000 words.

Despite the findings listed in the Warren Report, many people still believe the assassination was part of a larger plot.
