## Resource

In this powerful episode of Truth Be Told, we step beyond the familiar story of Abraham Lincoln’s assassination and uncover the deeper, more complex conspiracy behind one of the most pivotal moments in American history. Most people know the name John Wilkes Booth—but he didn’t act alone. From shadowy accomplices to overlooked figures like Mary Surratt, this wasn’t just an act of one man—it was a coordinated plot that nearly reshaped the future of the United States. Joining us is renowned historian and author Dr. Kate Clifford Larson, who brings unmatched insight into the hidden network behind Lincoln’s murder. Drawing from her extensive research and her book The Assassin’s Accomplice, she reveals the untold stories, surprising connections, and lingering questions that still surround this historic event. Was it a carefully orchestrated conspiracy… or a chaotic plan that somehow succeeded? And how much of the truth have we really been told? Get ready to challenge everything you thought you knew about Lincoln’s assassination. #TruthBeTold #LincolnAssassination #JohnWilkesBooth #MarySurratt #HistoryPodcast #Conspiracy #AmericanHistory #CivilWar #DrKateCliffordLarson #PodcastLife #HistoryLovers #HiddenHistory #DarkHistory #TrueHistory #ClubParanormal #TheClubParanormal #HistoricalTruth #UntoldStories #HistoryUncovered #ConspiracyTheory Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/truth-be-told-paranormal--3589860/support .
