Oswald (Lee Harvey)

Lee Harvey Oswald was a former Marine and convicted assassin who is widely believed to have been responsible for killing President John F. Kennedy in Dallas in 1963. Oswald was involved in Soviet and Cuban activities during the Cold War and was arrested shortly after the shooting. He was killed two days later by nightclub owner Jack Ruby, before standing trial. The circumstances surrounding Kennedy's assassination remain a subject of investigation and debate, with some questioning the official account and suggesting possible conspiracy theories.
