Rush to Judgment

Rush to Judgment

"Rush to Judgment" is the title of a book written by Mark Lane and published not long after the JFK assassination. The book takes issue with the conclusions of the Warren Commission and suggests that there was a conspiracy to assassinate John F. Kennedy.

It is also a 1967 film documentary about the John F. Kennedy assassination that was directed by Emile de Antonio and hosted by Lane. It is a black and white film, 122 minutes long. It has also been shown on BBC TV as part of the much longer (300 minutes) film entitled "The Death of Kennedy."

Included are several video clips showing Dealey Plaza how it existed in 1963 and 1966, clips of Lee Harvey Oswald, Dallas Chief of Police Jesse Curry, Dallas District Attorney Henry Wade, Jack Ruby, and his defense attorney Melvin Belli.

Some of the assassination witnesses who present their observations on-camera include Abraham Zapruder, James Tague, Charles Brehm, Mary Moorman, Jean Hill, Lee Bowers, Sam Holland, James Simmons, Richard Dodd, Jessie Price, Orville Nix, Patrick Dean, Napoleon Daniels, Nancy Hamilton, Joseph Johnson, Roy Jones, and Cecil McWatters.

This book is referenced in the movie, Slacker, written and directed by Richard Linklater.
