ReelzChannel Gets ‘JFK: The Smoking Gun’

ReelzChannel has picked up JFK: The Smoking Gun documentary directed by Malcolm McDonald (On the Trail of Genghis Khan) and written by Steve Lucas (Exhibit A: Secrets of Forensic Science). The documentary follows police detective Colin McLaren’s four-year investigation of JFK’s assassination.

Using modern technology and with access to all of the evidence in the killing of President John F Kennedy, McLaren believes he’s solved the crime and has found “the smoking gun” which killed JFK.

Per the network’s official acquisition announcement:

“This special investigative documentary with dramatic re-creations takes audiences back to that tragic day in Dallas at Dealey Plaza, to Parkland Hospital where the president was pronounced dead, to the Bethesda Naval Hospital where the autopsy was conducted and to the conclusions of the Warren Commission that have remained controversial to this day. It uses time-tested investigative techniques to solve the crime.”
