Dead Wrong: Straight Facts on the Country's Most Controversial Cover-Ups

Have you ever heard the story on the news of a politician being “found dead” or “committing suicide,” and it seemed a little strange to you? You think, “There’s something they’re not telling me.” Well, after you read Dead Wrong, you’ll realize that your instincts were correct. For years the government has put out hits on people that it finds “expendable” or who it felt were “talking too much.” David Wayne is here to show you that not only were these people murdered, but that it was done by our own government!

Find out how Marilyn Monroe was murdered, who really shot Martin Luther King Jr., and many other cover-ups throughout our country’s history.

If you thought “big brother” was watching you, now realize that yes, you are being watched—and through the scope of a sniper rifle, at that. Dead Wrong will give you the straight facts on some of the most controversial cases this country has ever seen. You’ll quickly learn that what the government tells you is not always to be believed.
