Lyndon B Johnson became the successor of the former U.S. leader.
"She became convinced that the then vice president, along with several businessmen in the South, had orchestrated the Dallas shooting, with gunman Lee Harvey Oswald – long claimed to have been a lone assassin – merely part of a much larger conspiracy," wrote The Daily Mail.
Lyndon B Johnson (LBJ) was a Texas-born and served as the state's governor and senator, completed JFK's term and went on to be elected president in his own right.
