Frank Sturgis original one-page handwritten manuscript in pencil, composed as a personal position statement addressing the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, U.S. intelligence activity, and Cuban political events of the late 1950s and early 1960s.

In the manuscript, Sturgis states his belief that the White House halted further investigation into the assassination of John F. Kennedy, and that the killing was the result of a conspiracy involving individuals across the United States, Mexico, Cuba, and Russia. He asserts that proof existed demonstrating such a conspiracy and frames his position as grounded in firsthand knowledge rather than speculation.

Sturgis further recounts attending a staff meeting in 1959 at which Fidel Castro allegedly issued threats against the United States and its leaders. He writes that during this period he received information indicating that elements within the CIA were assisting Castro in securing his position of power, and references communication between the American ambassador to Cuba and the CIA station chief. He additionally claims that certain CIA employees were later deemed untrustworthy due to communist leanings, and states that some of these individuals were subsequently involved in the Bay of Pigs operation.

The manuscript presents Sturgis’s interpretation of Cold War intelligence failures, Cuban political developments, and the broader geopolitical backdrop surrounding the Kennedy assassination. Its content reflects Sturgis’s longstanding belief in institutional compromise and covert betrayal during this era.

Fine condition overall.

Frank Sturgis (1924–1993) was a former CIA operative and anti-Castro paramilitary who became infamous as one of the five Watergate burglars arrested in 1972 at the Democratic National Committee headquarters. Beyond Watergate, Sturgis has long been a subject of JFK assassination conspiracy theories due to his intelligence connections and murky activities in Cuba. Some theorists, including New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison, suspected him of involvement or knowledge relating to the assassination of John F. Kennedy in 1963. Though no official evidence ever linked him directly to the crime, his association with key figures and covert operations has kept his name prominent in speculative accounts of the event.

A compelling handwritten manuscript capturing Frank Sturgis’s own critique of the JFK assassination.
