The assassination of President John F. Kennedy remains one of the most analyzed events in modern history. With President Donald Trump recently ordering the release of classified records surrounding the assassinations of JFK, RFK and Martin Luther King Jr., curiosity about what actually happened in all three historic assassinations has reignited. Trump, as reported by the Associated Press, promised that “everything will be revealed,” potentially shedding light on decades of conspiracy theories. While researchers await these revelations, some have considered alternative perspectives—including spiritual influences.
Perry Stone of Perry Stone Ministries offers a shocking account of the spiritual warfare facing JFK. In a YouTube video, he shared a story linking JFK’s assassination to Haitian occult practices. Here’s how his narrative unfolds, alongside its implications:
The Haitian Connection
According to Stone, his source was Pastor Davis, a missionary in Haiti during Kennedy’s presidency. Davis recounted how François “Papa Doc” Duvalier, Haiti’s voodoo-practicing leader, deeply resented Kennedy for imposing a naval blockade on Haiti. Stone explains that Duvalier, steeped in witchcraft, only ventured out on the 22nd of each month, believing he was spiritually protected on those days.

A Voodoo Plot?
Stone’s account claims that Papa Doc had a voodoo doll crafted in Kennedy’s likeness. “They put the needles in the back of the head of the voodoo doll of John F. Kennedy,” Stone recounts, citing Davis’ testimony. He further describes how spirits were allegedly sent to harm Kennedy. On Nov. 22, 1963—the day Kennedy was fatally shot in the back of the head—Papa Doc would have been in public, claiming divine protection.
Spiritual Vulnerability
Stone emphasizes the spiritual implications of this account. He explains that those outside a “redemptive covenant” with Jesus Christ lack the protective hedge offered by the “blood of Christ.” Referencing Revelation 12, Stone asserts, “You overcame Satan…by the blood of Jesus Christ and the word of your testimony.” He cautions that without faith, individuals will be susceptible to demonic forces.
A Broader Spiritual Battle
Stone draws on missionary experiences to illustrate the power of Christian faith against occult practices. He recounts instances where believers stood firm against voodoo influences, demonstrating the strength derived from the Holy Spirit. “The blood of Jesus Christ has a protective hedge,” Stone stresses, showcasing the importance of salvation.
Parallels to New Record Releases
While Stone’s narrative is deeply rooted in faith, it raises broader questions about unseen forces at play in historical events. As the Associated Press notes, Trump’s order to declassify assassination records has rekindled interest in the circumstances surrounding these tragic deaths. The intertwining of political intrigue, espionage and spiritual possibilities creates a complex tapestry that researchers and believers alike seek to unravel.
Moving Forward
Whether one views JFK’s assassination through the lens of spiritual warfare or historical conspiracy, the new wave of document releases promises to add depth to our understanding. Stone’s account—though largely unknown to many—highlights the profound interplay of faith, history and mystery. As researchers sift through the documents, the public’s appetite for answers persists. In Stone’s words, “The main thing…is the importance of a born-again salvation and redemptive covenant through the power of Christ.”
Perhaps the ultimate understanding may rest in balancing historical investigation with spiritual reflection, offering a fuller picture of events that have shaped our world.
