JFK's Brain: The Controversial History of America's 35th President

On November 22, 1963, America lost its 35th president, John F. Kennedy. As the nation mourned, conspiracy theories began to circulate about what happened that day in Dallas. One of the most popular theories was that JFK's brain was missing and that the government was covering it up. For years, people have searched for JFK's brain, but to this day it has never been found. In this blog post, we will explore the history of JFK's brain and discuss why it has become such a controversial topic.

JFK's brain was first removed during the autopsy at Bethesda Naval Hospital. The attending physician, James Humes, later testified that he did not remove the brain himself, but that it was taken out by someone on his staff. Rumors began to circulate that the brain had been removed in order to cover up a bullet wound, as this would have been evidence that JFK had not been killed by a lone gunman.

In 1978, Congress ordered the National Archives to search for JFK's brain. However, the search turned up empty-handed. In 1992, the Assassination Records Review Board (ARRB) was created in order to release all of the records related to JFK's assassination. The ARRB also looked for JFK's brain, but they too were unable to find it.

So where is JFK's brain? The most likely explanation is that it was disposed of after the autopsy. However, some conspiracy theorists believe that the government is hiding JFK's brain in order to cover up the true story of what happened on November 22, 1963. Whatever the truth may be, JFK's brain is one of the most controversial topics in American history.
