Product Description

Approaching the 50 year anniversary of the JFK assassination, from the Stateville Correctional Center in Joliet Illinois, confessed assassin James Earl Files tells the story of his role in the crime of the century. In 1989, Houston private investigator Joe West launched an independent investigation to find the true assassins of President John F. Kennedy. After three years of disappointments and dead-ends, West received a tip from an unexpected source: an FBI agent who asked to remain nameless. The tip led Joe West to the Stateville Correctional Center at Joliet, Illinois, and a prisoner by the name of James E. Files. Files, who was serving time for attempted murder of an Illinois police officer, was at first, very reluctant to talk. Slowly and meticulously West established a relationship with Files. Through months of personal visits and detailed correspondence, Files began to reveal his participation in the JFK assassination. Files was nearing a full confession when West became ill and suddenly passed away in 1993. It took 13 months after Joe's death, but on March 22, 1994, associates of West's videotaped an interview with Files. It was during this interview that Files first confessed to being the shooter on the infamous "grassy Knoll" located in Dealey Plaza on November 22, 1963 and that it was he who delivered the final, fatal shot to JFK's right temple. He also implicated organized crime members Charles Nicoletti, Johnny Roselli and Sam Giancana, who all had been murdered in the 1970's. For the next two frustrating years, attempts were made to bring the interview to the public. This finally led to an agreement for a nationwide TV program. As the program was being prepared for broadcast a consultant became involved. Based on his input the program was cancelled for reasons that have since been proven to be untrue. Also reputable JFK researchers have confirmed that the consultant was solidly connected to the Central Intelligence Agency.

In this DVD, James Files, confessed assassin of JFK, is interviewed By Jim Marrs, author of Crossfire: The Plot that Killed Kennedy. In this interview made in 2003, James Files takes the viewer on a journey, explaining why he did it, how he did it, why he is alive, and why he will never be charged with the murder of John F. Kennedy. This is culmination of an investigation which SHOULD have taken place in December of 1963. Instead, we got a bogus investigation, no trial and no actual conviction of Lee Harvey Oswald, since well he was conveniently killed on live television, with the entire country watching.

If Lee Harvey Oswald DID NOT shoot JFK. Then did this man do it?

Have you ever asked yourself if you really believe what your told in school about American history or world history in general? Most of what we are taught in elementary school about American History is wrong, when I look at our history now with a different set of eye glasses on. I cannot believe how much they don't tell you in school about JFK, MLK and RFK and how their assassinations really changed the fabric of how Americans now view their government.

Today trust in government is at an all time low, with no signs of ever coming back. And according to Dante's Inferno, the betrayal of trust is the gravest sin of all. And when it comes to the JFK Assassination, belief and trust can't be used in the same sentence thanks to government obfuscating the truth through fiction, tv docu-dramas and things like the Warren Commission, The House Select Committee on Assassinations and the Assassinations record review board. There has NEVER yet been an HONEST investigation by the United States Government into the Kennedy Assassination. Furthermore certain JFK documents are not scheduled for release until 2017 or even 2039.

So much for we the people.

If your a researcher, and your willing to set aside your bias, and just listen to what James Files has to say and if you even care enough about the future of America or even its past, than you owe it to yourself and Millions of people around the world who were affected by the events of November 22nd 1963, If President Kennedy had lived, there would've been no Vietnam, No Watergate, No Nixon, No LBJ, No schism between the generations, and no broken country that we now live in.

It maybe too late for justice in the JFK Case, but it is never too late for the truth. And anyone who thinks the American People are too immature for the truth, are too immature to write our history books. All of us are mortal, all of us will die.

Perhaps if you listen to James Files confession, perhaps the truth will finally come to light, and perhaps we should offer him amnesty before the truth perishes with the last remaining players.

May all the Truth Be Known.

I saw the full length video years ago before the U.S. Government took it off Youtube. It is compelling evidence of a second shooter, James Files, and the details of his stories are just too accurate and credible to make up. He was framed by the police and put in jail for attempting to kill two police officers. While serving time, he found God and confessed all his sins. He wanted to come clean and thats why he confessed about the killing of JFK. For some reason this video cut the part out where he admits to finding God and wanting to come clean. Probably to reduce the length of the film. I think this is a very important part of the video and should have been kept in the film. But other than that, the film has all the other details and is a very good film. With added video clips of Kennedy, mobsters, CIA members, the Cuban affairs of the time, etc.
Its a great film. I truely believe James Files was the second gunman. This video lets you watch it and make up your own conclusion!

Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2013

Joe West, a private investigator, started an investigation to find the true assassins of President John F. Kennedy in 1989, Houston, Texas.

James Files' true name was James Sutton, born in Alabama 1942, January 24, but according to his birth certificate he was deceased at birth. He states that when it comes to the government getting things done the Mafia are kindergarten.

Joe West was fighting to get President Kennedy's body exhumed because there would still be traces of mercury left in the body. The court accepted the order but West go ill and died so the case died also.

Files is in prison for attempting to kill an Illinois policeman after an attempt on his life, so spends his life in prison as he is a marked man if he steps foot outside. Tough, why should the taxpayer pay to keep him because of his life of crime. He admits he has killed three people before he was recuited for this job.

I was inclined to believe his interview, but my intuition told me that something is not right, so I started thinking. He has had a lot of time to get his story straight, could get information from cell mates and connections. There are a few mistakes in his interview which made me recheck with the dvd "Confessions from the Grassy Knoll". There was a witness in the tower behind the grassy knoll, but Files does not say anything about this fact in the interview.

On the dvd cover it states that Joe West established a relationship with Files slowly and meticulously, but in the interview Files states that after the first meeting with West he liked the man, so he started talking about President Kennedy the next day. This is a contradiction.

He also says he was kidnapped and tortured to reveal the whereabouts of a ledger (diary) was, that was about assassinations and such. If that was the case, and they wanted it so badly, I am 100% sure he would have told them or he would have been killed. They would not leave him for dead with his hands and feet strapped up and naked.

Files also states that the route of the motorcade was known five days before the event, but also says that the route was made public months ahead, but there was one change made at the last minute. How could changes be made at the last minute when all the people were lined up in the streets?

Nicoletti wanted Files to be the backup shooter as Roselli knew the C.I.A. had called off the assassination and did not want to go against orders. Files asked Nicoletti if he wanted it to go ahead. He told Files, "F*** them. It's going ahead anyway."

He also says that he saw Jack Ruby was in the crowd at the grassy knoll, but I do not remember this ever being stated anywhere before.

Lee Harvey Oswald was given a parafin test later by the Dallas Police department, and a document states that they only found residue on his hand, from which he got when he collected Files' spent cartridges as he calibrated his scope. I have always believed that Oswald was innocent and Files interview seems to uphold my belief.

I may be wrong but the interview seems to be too fullproof, too scripted, a playwright, a story to keep himself in prison. I don't think any one could be so correct, so consistent and remember 99.9% of everything that happened after so many years.

I would suggest you take the interview at face value, with an open mind, and seek out your own conclusion. My conclusion is: It would not be hard for a man of his calibre to find out information, and would not be the first person to do something to stay in prison (safely, maybe not), but it would be easier than outside. It would mean a lot to him in prison as the man who killed the President of the United States of America, as he would get fame, special rights from his cell mates, and even some of the guards would treat him differently. Some of the evidence can not be checked as the people are long gone to hell.

To anyone who has not seen his confession in full, I would recommend this dvd so that they could make a judgement of their own, and I give it four stars as I was a bit disappointed by the whole interview.
