18. Jackie Tried To Get Her Husband To Talk To Her

Even though it ultimately would not matter, Secret Service acted quickly when they heard the gunshots and saw JFK shot. Hill had been behind the vehicle but jumped into the car, where he tried to shield the president from any more harm. Immediately after that, the driver sped off towards the hospital while Jackie held pieces of her husband’s skill and head in her hands. Later, Jackie told the detective that she continued to talk to her husband, telling him that she loved him and asking him if he could hear her.
