On the 8th of December 1980, music icon and peace activist John Lennon was assassinated just inside the entrance to the Dakota Apartments, his New York home. This was the first high-profile celebrity murder in history. The world was in shock. Mark Chapman, the man accused and later convicted of the crime, surprisingly had stayed at the scene and started to read a novel. In Spring 2020, TV producer and writer David Whelan, concerned at the dozens of anomalies he found in the case, commenced a three-year long investigation into the assassination of John Lennon. Whelan gained exclusive access to the notebooks and paperwork of the NYPD's lead detective on the case, as well as interviewing everyone who was connected to the events: Dakota workers, Lennon insiders and employees, NYPD cops and detectives, and the medics who tried to save John Lennon in the Roosevelt Hospital Emergency Room. All gave new and highly revealing testimony. Whelan’s thorough investigation will reveal overwhelming evidence which proves that Mark Chapman was not the cold and calculated killer we were told he was. Whelan’s investigation explosively reveals that nefarious actors and hidden organisations conspired to assassinate John Lennon, and to set up Mark Chapman as the fall guy for one of the world’s most infamous and shocking crimes. The official narrative about John’s despicable murder is a lie. We all know John was obsessed with getting to the truth of things. I hope this book goes some way to getting to the truth of his assassination. The book is in English language and is available on paperback in all Amazon outlets across the world. We will be publishing an e-book next Spring and we will also be producing an audio book early next year. We are currently negotiating foreign language version deals with individual publishers from various regions and countries across the world. As these deals are finalised, we will announce the releases as they happen next year. It’s going to be an uphill battle to get this book into the public consciousness. Please spread the word amongst your family and friends about this book and its content. As most of you know, I have been investigating John’s assassination for over three years now. I have spoken to everyone involved with the case and I have managed to access all the lead detective’s notebooks and files. I am relieved that all my work is now finally out there for the world to read. This book is the just the start of a process for getting justice for John Lennon. Though I believe my work has uncovered most of what really happened on 8th December 1980, there is still work to do. I urge everyone who reads the book to continue looking into the case. There are still unreleased FBI, CIA, NYPD and Manhattan DA’s office files. Most released files are still heavily redacted. We must continue to seek the whole truth about the people behind John Lennon’s assassination and their methods and motives. There are plenty more subjects surrounding the case that need further exploring beyond my book. Lastly, thank you to all my subscribers for your interest in my work. Your support is greatly appreciated. I’m looking forward to hearing what you all think about the book.
