After I commented on Jim DiEugenio’s CTKA essay on The State of the JFK Case: 50 Years Out, I heard from more than one reader who took exception to my defense of Phil Shenon’s JFK book, “A Cruel and Shocking Act.”

Gunn is a quality witness. While largely unknown to both mainstream reporters and JFK conspiracy theorists, he was among the first people to see the vast body of JFK records made public by the ARRB in the mid-1990s.
