No one will shoot me: JFK told secret service agents
September 20th, 2011 - 11:46 pm ICT by IANSLondon, Sep 20 (IANS) Then US president John F, Kennedy told secret service agents three years before his assassination that no one was going to shoot him and his security was excessive, accroding to a media report Tuesday.
After the 1960 election, Kennedy told one of his aides that his security was excessive and he was not at risk.
“They’re making me uncomfortable. Nobody is going to shoot me, so tell them to relax,” the Daily Mail quoted him as saying.
On Nov 22, 1963, Kennedy was gunned down by Lee Harvey Oswald while his motorcade was winding its way though Dallas, Texas.
Kennedy’s concerns emerged in a series of audio tapes made in the 1960s by his aide Kenneth O’Donnell and recently unearthed by O’Donnell’s daughter.
