This presentation dispels many of the commonly-held myths about the murder of our 16th President. Although assassin John Wilkes Booth fired the gun that killed President Abraham Lincoln, there were many fingers on that trigger. The Confederate Secret Service, a foreign bank account, multiple assassins and an orchestrated underground plot conspired to decapitate the Union government, a plan set in motion months before the evening of April 14, 1865.

Led by the Honorable Dennis J. Curran, retired Massachusetts Superior Court Justice. Curran is a member of the national Board of Advisors of The Lincoln Forum, a Life Member of the Surratt Society, and a Fellow of the Massachusetts Historical Society. The author of 42 book chapters and articles, he has taught at Tufts University, Roger Williams University of School of Law, and Brown University.
