Why is based on the actual events in the tumultuous life of Malcolm Wallace, his wife Andre, Lyndon Baines Johnson, and Johnson's sister Josefa Johnson. Their lives are dominated by ambition and power, lies and deceit, and life-altering desire. Their diverse but intertwined paths led them to one of the most transformative moments in the history of the United States. November 22, 1963 - a day that changed the future of our country.
Why provides a possible explanation for a critical piece of evidence that went unnoticed for thirty-five years. On March 12, 1998, A. Nathan Darby, a certified latent print examiner with several decades of experience, held a press conference to announce that
the only unidentified fingerprint on the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository belonged to Malcolm Everett Wallace.
Why tells the story of:
Why Wallace walked away, a free man, after being convicted of first-degree murder,
Why Wallace was in the School Book Depository,
Why John F. Kennedy was murdered, and
Why LBJ suddenly decided not to run for President in 1968.
