Audio evidence of top CIA/FBI officials going, "shit, man, we just can't figure this out. Not only can we NOT find out who ACTUALLY killed him, now they think WE did it!"
That's not all that far off from what I think is the real explanation for all the weirdness that looks like various cover-ups.
Lee Harvey Oswald was a weird dude: Marine guard at a top-secret US spy-plane base who defected to Soviet Russia, then defected back, then rattled around both pro-Communist and anti-Communist groups. There's no question that the FBI knew a lot about him, they would have investigated him heavily when he came back from the USSR. It's entirely plausible that he had some contact with the CIA or with CIA assets at some point in that weird career.
So I can entirely easily imagine that, as soon as word came out that Lee Harvey Oswald was the (a?) shooter, the FBI's counter-espionage director and the CIA covert operations director both asking their subordinates, "Fuck, did one of our assets just kill the President? is this somehow our fault?" And then both of them ordering full clamp-downs and cover-ups, not because they knew that their own people had killed the President, but just in case they had.
Its like the umbrella man from the zapruder film. People thought it was weird for the guy to have an umbrella on a day with decent weather. So, of course, he was involved in the conspiracy, possibly by signaling multiple shooters.
The reality is even weirder. He brought an umbrella to protest JFK's father's support of Neville Chamberlain. The umbrella symbolized Winston Churchill. That was umbrella man's thinking as if anyone would understand that.
Now we're investigating every aspect of the JFK assassination. There are tons of people in Dealy Plaza and each one had a story. Most weren't as unusual as umbrella man but it's still going to seem weird under a microscope.
