Gary Fannin

Gary Fannin’s research into the JFK assassination began in 1980 with a high school history report. As luck would have it, he drew JFK out of a hat and has been researching the events of JFK ever since. Initially he looked at library microfilm of newspapers, magazines, etc., and noticed how so many eyewitnesses described the events completely different than what the Warren Report eventually decided on 9/24/64.

He wrote/published, his first book, The Innocence of Oswald—50 Years of Lies, Deception & Deceit in the Murders of President John F. Kennedy & Officer J.D. Tippit. The book uses official documents from the FBI, CIA, Secret Service, Dallas Police Reports/Affidavits & Autopsy Reports to prove Lee Oswald was unequivocally innocent of all charges filed against him. His Kindle version has been ranked as high as #2 and his paperback version as high as #7 on Amazon.com. Fannin also an accompanying documentary DVD.

Fannin recently completed his second book, JFK Marked For Death—Who Stood To Lose Had JFK Lived, and has started on a third, Operation Mockingbird — How The U.S. Government and Media Have Lied about Historical Events.

Fannin also completed working on The American Media & The Second Assassination of President John F. Kennedy —T he Jim Garrison Tapes, Pt. 2. This is the follow up to The Jim Garrison Tapes, the 1993 San Sebastian Film Winner by 5-time Emmy winner, John Barbour.

Fannin has spoken at numerous conferences in Dallas, New Orleans, Washington, D.C., Chicago and Los Angeles. He has interviewed many eyewitnesses (some still alive) in regard to the JFK assassination including;

Mark Harris

HOUSES OF THE HOLY: A Nightmare Web of Hate, Crime, Corruption and Child Abuse is the true story they never wanted you to hear of one man’ s battle for truth— and the price he paid.

When Mark Harris, a decorated former Air Force Special Operations pilot, filed a routine restraining order to protect his two young sons, he had no idea he was stepping into a nightmare. That single act set off a chain reaction that exposed a hidden criminal empire — an alliance of white supremacists, rogue military operatives, mob families, corrupt officials, government informants and religious extremists. His fight for his children becomes a war against the darkest forces in America.

What Harris uncovered was almost too horrifying to believe: a real-world intersection of child trafficking, kidnapping, blackmail, extortion, bribery, money laundering, ritual abuse, drugs, murder, and political corruption — all masked by patriotism, piety and power and a real-world “X marks the spot” site drenched in symbolism, where white supremacy, religion and organized crime intersect and where a morbid trophy was heavily guarded: the alleged JFK assassination rifle. And possibly most disturbing, missing foster children, victims of a network of predators cloaked in flags, Bibles and badges.

As he fought through rigged courts, institutional betrayal and the weaponization of law enforcement, clergy and child protective services, Harris became the target of the very system meant to protect the innocent. His gifted autistic son — blessed with a photographic memory — became both a threat and a target in a conspiracy that reached the highest levels of power.

Judyth Vary Baker

Judyth Vary Baker is an artist, writer, poet and futurist with degrees in Medical/Cultural Anthropology, Communications, English and Linguistics. She is the author of Me & Lee: How I came to know, love and lose Lee Harvey Oswald, an underground best seller. Her book, David Ferrie, Mafia Pilot (TrineDay 2014), was the first definitive full-length biography of the enigmatic man called “the key to the Kennedy assassination.” Her third book, Letters to the Cyborgs (TrineDay 2016) is a collection of science fiction short stories using both terror and humor to expose a world plagued by unethical and frightening inventions that exist today.

“Both Lee and I were fascinated by the world of science fiction,” Baker explains. “We both wanted to write science fiction.” The only such story ever written by Lee Harvey Oswald (“Her Way”) is included in Letters, as well as a section about the FBI’s investigation of Lee’s readings and writings.

Baker’s fourth book, Kennedy & Oswald: The Big Picture, co-written with Edward Schwartz, was released in 2016. “It’s everything you’ll ever need to know about how – and why – the Kennedy assassination and Oswald’s murder is the key to today’s newspaper headlines,” she says.

Baker invented a modified method to obtain magnesium from seawater when 16, induced lung cancer in germ-free mice in only seven days when 17  — a feat that had not been accomplished, at the time, in the nation’s top laboratories — and created a cancer-detection blood test in college when 18. After nearly two years of specialized training, Baker, promised early entry into Tulane Medical School after a summer internship in New Orleans with the renowned Dr. Mary Sherman, found herself in a project to kill Fidel Castro with lung cancer involving persons such as Lee Harvey Oswald and “Dr.” David Ferrie.

Author Edward T. Haslam discovered Baker was the last living witness who could verify particulars of his own decades-long, extensive research into the connections between Sherman’s brutal, unsolved murder on July 21, 1964, the day the Warren Commission came to New Orleans to obtain testimonies on Dr. Alton Ochsner, Lee Oswald, contaminated polio vaccines, David Ferrie, cancer epidemics and the Kennedy assassination.

Baker, who had an affair with Oswald, is determined to clear his name. She founded the JFK Assassination Conference. In 2016, the second annual Oswald Conference was held in New Orleans, assisted by Baker’s “politically incorrect annual birthday parties in Lee’s honor” there. Baker also sponsors the JFK Memorial Ceremony at the Grassy Knoll on November 22.

Louis Ferrante

Louis Ferrante was born on March 20, 1967, in Brooklyn, New York, where he grew up surrounded by the intense street culture of the city. As a young man, he became deeply involved with the Gambino crime family, one of the most prominent organized crime groups in the United States during the 1980s. His criminal activities eventually led to his arrest in 1996, and he was convicted on multiple federal charges. Ferrante spent approximately nine years in prison—time that became a turning point in his life. While incarcerated, he began to critically reassess his past decisions and the impact of his actions, setting the foundation for a dramatic personal transformation.

After his release in 2004, Ferrante committed himself to rebuilding his life in a positive and meaningful way.

Today, Ferrante continues to write and speak publicly, using his story to encourage others to reject destructive paths and pursue lives of purpose, accountability and positive change. His message underscores the power of personal transformation and the possibility of a second chance.
