Oliver Stone and James DiEugenio testified before the U.S. House on April 1, 2025, urging a reopening of the investigation into John F. Kennedy's 1963 assassination, citing new documents and inconsistencies in the official account.
At a U.S. House of Representatives hearing on April 1, 2025, film director Oliver Stone and author James DiEugenio called for a fresh investigation into the assassination of former President John F. Kennedy, urging lawmakers to reconsider the conclusions of the Warren Commission, which has long stated that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in the killing. The hearing came just weeks after President Donald Trump directed the release of thousands of declassified documents related to the 1963 assassination, further fueling debates over the circumstances surrounding Kennedy's death.
Stone, whose 1991 film JFK controversially suggested that the assassination involved a high-level conspiracy, reiterated his belief that Oswald was not the lone gunman. He urged Congress to "reinvestigate the assassination of President Kennedy, from the scene of the crime to the courtroom," and pointed to discrepancies in the evidence, such as the alleged misidentification of the rifle used in the shooting. Stone also called for an in-depth examination of Oswald's connections to U.S. intelligence agencies, suggesting that the CIA's involvement in the case warranted further scrutiny.
James DiEugenio, a noted researcher and author of The JFK Assassination, supported Stone’s position, highlighting significant inconsistencies in the official account of the assassination. He pointed to the rifle evidence, claiming that the weapon shown in the trial was different from the one Oswald was said to have purchased. DiEugenio also emphasized the importance of transparency and criticized the secrecy surrounding government records on the assassination, asserting that "secrecy is the enemy of democracy."
Stone and DiEugenio's testimony comes as part of the ongoing debate about the true nature of Kennedy's death, with many Americans still skeptical of the official narrative. While the Justice Department and other federal agencies have upheld the conclusion that Oswald acted alone, polls show that a significant portion of the public believes in the possibility of a conspiracy. Stone and DiEugenio’s call for a renewed investigation reflects a broader desire for greater transparency and a deeper understanding of one of the most controversial events in modern U.S. history.
The hearing follows President Trump’s executive order from January, which mandated the release of all remaining records related to the assassination. Despite the release of millions of pages of documents over the years, many key files remain sealed, contributing to continued speculation about the true circumstances of Kennedy's death. As the debate intensifies, the pressure on lawmakers and government agencies to address these unresolved questions grows.
