The Troubled Provenance of CE 399
(Duration 37:50)
Josiah Thompson, Ph.D. is the author of “Six Seconds in Dallas,” the landmark 1967 re-investigation of the JFK assassination. In the mid-70’s, Thompson resigned his tenured professorship at Haverford College to become a private investigator in San Francisco, specializing in criminal defense. He has investigated many notorious cases including those of Black Panther Huey Newton, SLA members Bill and Emily Harris, Stephen Bingham in the math of the “San Quentin Six” litigation, and, the retrial of Ben Dosti of the “Billionaire Boys Club.” He was defense investigator for Timothy McVeigh of the Oklahoma City bombing, and Chol Soo Lee - the death penalty case inspiring the film “True Believer.” His 1988 memoir “Gumshoe” has been called “...the best book ever written about the life of the private eye,” and, his 1974 biography “Kierkegaard,” has become a reference work in its field. Thompson taught philosophy at Yale after receiving his Ph.D. there in the early 60’s.
