Oswald was arrested, but not for the assassination of the President. On November 22, 1963, about 45 minutes after the shooting at Dealey Plaza, Oswald had been stopped by Dallas police officer J.D. Tippit for questioning. He shot and killed the officer at point blank range.
Shortly thereafter, Oswald was arrested as the suspect in the shooting of the police officer. He was in possession of a .38 caliber revolver (which ballistics later matched to the bullet that killed Officer Tippit).
When Oswald was brought to the police station, a group of employees of the Texas School Book Depository were there giving their statements as witnesses to the shooting in Dealey Plaza. They knew Oswald and pointed him out to police. Following up information from these witnesses, Oswald was formally charged with assassinating President Kennedy.
Oswald was held for two days at Dallas Police Headquarters, at which time he was to be transported to the jail. As they were leaving police headquarters on November 24, Oswald was shot by Jack Ruby. Oswald never made it to the jail.

Was the CIA involved in the assassination of JFK?
There is no proof that there was a conspiracy. There is a convincing, but not conclusively proven case that Lee Harvey Oswald, who had been known to have communist sympathies, could have fired all the shots from the 6th floor of the Texas School Book Depository. Conspiracy theories vary from the strange to the believable. Most come from the idea that there was at least one other gunman, who might have been hiding behind the grassy knoll by the roadside. Some say that Lee Harvey Oswald's assassination two days later was part of a cover-up. Some theories go deep and may involve the USSR, subversive communists, the Mafia, Lyndon Johnson, the Republicans, etc.

Was Lee Harvey Oswald convicted?
Technically, Oswald was "innocent", in the sense that he never lived to be tried, and here in the US a person is considered innocent until proven guilty.However, if you define "innocent" to mean "he didn't do it", then he absolutely was not innocent.While many have attempted to whitewash Oswald, typically they do it by way of mistaken or even wrong information. Oswald's palmprint was lifted from his rifle while he was still alive. Conspiracy buffs see some significance to the fact that his palmprint was taken by the FBI after his death. The fact that there is no way to go from ink on a card, to body oil on a rifle, is not mentioned by buffs, as is the fact that the palmprint was lifted while Oswald was still alive.Other incorrect information is also popular. At one point in time there was some belief that Oswald needed and had help, a fellow sniper on the Grassy Knoll. We now know that at the moment of the head shot, there was a concrete wall between this location and the President's head. In any case, the spot was wide open to the public to see, and in fact at least one witness was less than 20 feet away.Forensic analysis reveals that an instant before the President's head exploded *forward and to the right* his head was driven three inches violently down and forward, clearly by Oswald's bullet from behind and above. The explosion of debris then twisted his head back and to the left. This was mistaken for proof of another sniper. However, a rifle on his right side would have left an exit hole on his left side of his head, quite possibly moving on to strike Jackie. No such thing happened.Some claim that Oswald "mysteriously" had two wallets, one found on him at the theater, one at the site where he murdered Officer Tippet. No wallet was found at the Tippet scene; the DPD was simply photographed with *a* wallet there, no doubt checking the IDs of witnesses, that sort of thing.There are those who claim, on no evidence at all, that Oswald worked for the CIA. No one has turned up a canceled paycheck, or any other proof. Anyone too dead to defend himself can be accused of that.There are those who see great importance that the man who murdered Oswald was tangentially connected with the Mob... but if you look at the record, Ruby was barely squeaking by, even running two night clubs. Doesn't sound much like a Mob business!See the links below; they are excellent for comprehending the evidence-based conclusions.

Who was the man accused of killing JFK?
Lee Harvey Oswald was arrested for the shooting of John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963. Some people dispute the belief that Lee Harvey Oswald was the shooter.The arguement against Lee Harvey Oswald as the shooter states that Kennedy's head moved back, giving the impression that one of the shots came from the front, not the rear. Some think there were multiple shooters as well. It is estimated there were up to four shooters with 2 to 3 of them hitting President Kennedy. Since JFK was only hit by two different bullets, it is hard to understand how three of them managed to hit him.Some say Oswald was set up to take the fall and be silenced; that Jack Ruby was allowed to shoot Oswald dead to quell any more information about the wider conspiracy. There were several witnesses who claimed to have heard shots from behind the wall and the grassy knoll among other vantage points.The arguement for Lee Harvey Oswald being the shooter states that JFK's head exploded forward and to the right, causing a twisting motion back and to the left as that was the only way it could go, according to Newton's Laws of Motion.Oswald murdered a police officer, and tried to shoot the arresting officers, an odd thing for an innocent man to do. There were people who later claimed they heard shots coming from other places. But the vast bulk of witnesses heard the shots from Oswald's direction. The other witnesses may have heard an echo instead of noticing the actual shots... or they may have enjoyed the attention, and perhaps money, they got for saying what some people wanted to hear. Oswald held up his own transfer, or would have been gone long before Jack Ruby showed up. He wanted to be famous and historical, and nothing else he had tried, including another attempt to assassinate a public figure, had worked.
When did Lee Harvey Oswald try to go to Cuba?
In October of 1963. He did not make the trip although a visa was granted by the Cuban embassy in Mexico City on 18 October 1963. He returned to Dallas where he began work at the Texas School Book Depository on 16 October 1963.

What is the most expensive rifle in the world?
I do believe that it is the VO Vapen priced at $825,000 US. Others may compete in collector value. For example, if the Italian Carcano 6.5mm bolt action rifle that was used by Lee Harvey Oswald to kill John Kennedy were to ever reach the auction block... What Oswald probably bought for around $60 could go for millions. The rifle used to shoot George Wallace could be worth a fortune.
