What Was The Role of David Herold

[John E.]

Hello John,

Kudos to you on a great article. I always love when someone challenges the story as its been told for umpteen years. Also, kudos to Dave Taylor for asking the question 'Where's the source ?" a few years back...

I have a question: You seem to give a lot of attention to the lights being turned off in the theater in regards to Booth's assassination plan.

Weren't the lights to be extinguished to aid the kidnapping and not the murder ?
