Booth Conspiracy

The Booth Conspiracy refers to the theory that John Wilkes Booth, who assassinated President Abraham Lincoln in 1865, may not have acted alone. Some suggest Booth's death was staged or that others played a role in the conspiracy to kill Lincoln and possibly cover up the true events. These theories propose that powerful groups or individuals had motives to remove Lincoln or shift blame, though mainstream historians regard the official account—that Booth was the lone assassin—as accurate and well-supported by evidence.
