Chamba Lane, JFK Conspiracy Interview with Wim Dankbaar and Zack Shelton On Friday, May 18th, Chamba Lane interviewed Wim Dankbaar, a Dutch researcher and creator of the web site www.jfkmurdersolved.com and Zack Shelton, FBI agent for 28 years, now retired, who worked in the organized crime task force and got the initial lead that led to the identity, location and eventual confession of the shooter on the grassy knoll, James Files, a (then) 21-year old ex-special forces killer who became a mafia hitman and CIA operative. Zack was hired by Wim to investigatte James Files and his story. The book and DVD, "Files on JFK" was the centerpiece of the radio show and offers compelling proof of James Files authenticity. The book and DVD also feature confessions of Chauncey Holt and Tosh Plumlee, both participants in the conspiracy to kill the president, and neither of whom knew James Files. Lyndon Johnson is also heavily implicated, as is to a lesser extent George H.W. Bush. "I challange anyone to listen to this interview, or read the book or watch the DVD and then argue that James Files is not truthful and factual, and that the government explanation of the assassination is anything but a gigantic fraud and cover up." -- Chamba Lane |
