The famed Hollywood movie maker claims he was told the US President s murder in 1963 was an inside job by a man who said he was a former member of the presidential security detail. Known only as Ron, the man told Stone that somebody from his own team had fired on the President. ![]() The director, whose film JFK starring Kevin Costner was sympathetic to conspiracy theories, said he was initially extremely sceptical about the claims. The Warren Commission into Kennedys death ruled it had been carried out by former US marine Lee Harvey Oswald from the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository. They concluded he shot the President while travelling in an open limousine through Dallas in November 1963. However many have doubted the commissions findings believing others were involved. But after meeting with Ron, Stone said he believed he was telling the truth. Stone revealed the mans confession for the first time to Matt Zoller Seitz, who is the author of a forthcoming book on the Oscar-winning screenwriter whose films include Platoon. When asked why Stone had kept it secret so long Seitz said: I think it was because he trusted me, and also because both the father and the son have been dead for a while. In his book, Seitz tells how Stone initially received Rons messages. The director told him: He came to me through a series of weird letters through post office boxes. ![]() He said something like, I want you to know this is from my conscience. Its the way I would do it, if I were going to do something like that. You kill the President, and your cover is security, and if the sniper or snipers who kill the President are hidden in with the guys who are supposed to protect him, guys who have no knowledge of this plot It makes a lot of sense. And his memory of it was so technical, filled with military jargon, details about radio communications right after the shots. The book, titled The Oliver Stone Experience, will be published on September 13 by Abrams Chronicle books. DailyMirror Follow DailyMirror More On John Kennedy Lee Harvey Oswald Oliver Stone Murder.
