I and countless others believe that President James Abram Garfield was assassinated by Charles J. Guiteau on July 2, 1881, in Washington D.C. while walking through the Baltimore and Potomac railroad station (only 4 months after becoming president), because Guiteau was reportedly mentally ill and upset that he had been repeatedly rejected to be the American consul in Paris. Others believe it is because he was mad that he couldn't run for president. The end result is that Garfield died, tragically in mid September.
