Jackie tapes ‘do not link JFK killing to Johnson’

ABC News last night said there is no truth to a report that Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis believed then US vice-president Lyndon Johnson was involved in the assassination of her husband, President John F Kennedy.

The claim was made by the Daily Mail on its website.

The newspaper cited tape recordings which it said would show that the former first lady felt that Johnson, who became president, was part of a plot to assassinate Kennedy.
