Exclusive JFK Video: Widow of CIA Assassination Chief Talks Candidly
Bill Harvey loved crime boss Johnny Rosselli and hated President Kennedy, said Clara Grace Harvey..
In this world-exclusive video, JFK Facts presents a fascinating interview with C.G. Harvey, the widow of legendary CIA officer William King Harvey, who served as chief of the agency’s ZR-RIFLE assassination program at the time of President Kennedy’s murder. Harvey’s activities are so sensitive that his 1975 testimony to Senate investigators about how he organized killing operations is still heavily redacted 47 years later.
Clara Grace Harvey is more than a credible witness. She graduated with the first Women's Army Corps officers in 1942, rising to the rank of major before joining the CIA where she worked on Operation Paperclip, the agency's program to evacuate scientists from Nazi Germany.
In her comments, filmed at an Indianapolis senior citizens home in 1999 by Scott and Andy Alderton, C.G. Harvey provides unique first-hand testimony about her notorious husband: why he disdained President John F. Kennedy and First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy, and how he openly hated Robert F. Kennedy. She also describes the long warm friendship she and her husband enjoyed with Johnny Rosselli, the Las Vegas crime boss whom the CIA enlisted in its conspiracies to assassinate Fidel Castro of Cuba.
