The other two members who dissented were Senator Sherman Cooper and Senator Richard Russell.
Cooper was the only commission member who refused to go along with the single bullet theory and told both Robert and Edward Kennedy that he did not believe Oswald acted alone. He publicly said he was dissatisfied with the commission and called its report "premature and inconclusive".
