JFK’s Brain Vanished From the National Archives — The Government Never Investigated

In 1966, staff at the National Archives discovered that JFK's brain had gone missing from a secure room. The stainless steel container holding it was not there. The tissue slides were gone. The original signed autopsy report was gone. One investigation was ordered. It found nothing. In the sixty years since, nobody has looked again. This video examines the complete chain of custody failure — from the illegal removal of Kennedy's body from Texas jurisdiction, to the assignment of unqualified pathologists at Bethesda, to the moment the brain passed out of federal custody and into the hands of the Kennedy family. What was lost is not just evidence. It was the only physical record that could have settled the central forensic question of the assassination: the direction of fire. Funeral Report covers the death care system and the institutional failures that surround it. #JFK #JFKAssassination #Kennedy #JFKAutopsy #MissingEvidence #AssassinationFiles #ForensicPathology #NationalArchives #FuneralReport #JFKBrain #UnsolvedHistory #AmericanHistory
