Political assassinations are messy, sometimes not fully thought-out events. An assassin typically wishes to stop a prominent figure from advocating a cause that the killer disagrees with. However, these actions often lead to events that the perpetrator didn’t intend, and sometimes the exact opposite of those intentions becomes the new reality.
In this episode of Perspectives, five experts discuss some of history’s most infamous assassinations—and their unintended consequences.
