Mind Games: The Assassination of John Lennon

By: David Whelan

On the 8th of December 1980, music icon and peace activist John Lennon was assassinated just inside the entrance to the Dakota Apartments, his New York home. This was the first high-profile celebrity murder in history. The world was in shock. Mark Chapman, the man accused and later convicted of the crime, surprisingly had stayed at the scene and started to read a novel. In Spring 2020, TV producer and writer David Whelan, concerned at the dozens of anomalies he found in the case, commenced a three-year long investigation into the assassination of John Lennon. Whelan gained exclusive access to the notebooks and paperwork of the NYPD's lead detective on the case, as well as interviewing everyone who was connected to the events: Dakota workers, Lennon insiders and employees, NYPD cops and detectives, and the medics who tried to save John Lennon in the Roosevelt Hospital Emergency Room. All gave new and highly revealing testimony. Whelan's thorough investigation will reveal overwhelming evidence which proves that Mark Chapman was not the cold and calculated killer we were told he was. Whelan shockingly concludes that Chapman was a mind-controlled Manchurian candidate patsy, placed at the crime scene to take the blame for Lennon's murder, while a second shooter assassinated John Lennon as he entered his Dakota residence. Whelan's investigation explosively reveals that nefarious actors and hidden organisations conspired to assassinate John Lennon, and to set up Mark Chapman as the fall guy for one of the world's most infamous and shocking crimes.
