Summary
Have you ever heard the story on the news of a politician being "found dead" or "committing suicide," and it seemed a little strange to you? Well, after you read this book, you'll realize that your instincts were correct. For years the government has put out hits on people that it finds "expendable" or who it felt were "talking too much." David Wayne is here to show you that not only were these people murdered, but that it was done by our own government! Find out how Marilyn Monroe was murdered, who really shot Martin Luther King Jr., and many other cover-ups throughout our country's history. The extensive research and fact-checking done show how our government has taken matters into its own hands and has acted however they saw fit. If you thought "big brother" was watching you, now realize that yes, you are being watched--and through the scope of a sniper rifle, at that.--From publisher description.
