Episode 2: Mother of All Lies (The Second Oswald‪)‬ The Second Oswald

    • History

One of the conspiracy theories floating around is that Lee Harvey Oswald was a double agent working for the Soviets. A "Manchurian Candidate" programmed to be an unwitting assassin in an international plot hatched by who else – his mother. Meanwhile, Kerry Thornley moves to New Orleans to write his novel about his buddy, Oswald – and meets two shady characters who want to assassinate President Kennedy and frame a communist. Soon, Lee Harvey Oswald returns to the USA from the Soviet Union, and the plot begins with Kerry in the middle of it.
