James Earl Files (born January 24, 1942), also known as James Sutton, is an American prisoner at the Danville Correctional Center in Danville, Illinois〔 who stated in a 1994 interview that he was the "grassy knoll shooter" in the assassination of United States President John F. Kennedy. Files has subsequently been interviewed by others and discussed in various books pertaining to the assassination and related theories.〔〔 In 1994, the Federal Bureau of Investigation was quoted as having investigated Files' allegation and found it "not to be credible".〔 In 2010, ''Playboy'' magazine published an article by Hillel Levin in which Files also implicated Charles Nicoletti and John Roselli in the assassination of Kennedy. ==Background== Files has stated that he was born in Alabama, moved to California with his family shortly thereafter, then to an Italian neighborhood in Chicago.〔〕 Files was convicted of the attempted murder of two police officers during a roadside shootout in 1991 and sentenced to fifty years.〔〔〕 An "anonymous FBI source", later identified as Zack Shelton, has been reported by some researchers as having told Joe West, a private investigator in Houston, in the early 1990s about an inmate in an Illinois penitentiary who might have information about the Kennedy assassination.〔 On August 17, 1992, West interviewed Files at Stateville Correctional Center in Crest Hill, Illinois.〔 After West's death in 1993, his family requested that his friend, Houston television producer Bob Vernon, take over the records concerning the story.〔〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「James Files」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
