Who Killed Joseph Smith Film Review & Press Release

Follow the eye-opening journey of one man’s forensic investigation into the murder of the
controversial American prophet, Joseph Smith at Carthage Jail.
Spurred by numerous recent changes to the official narrative by today’s largest Mormon
congregation, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS), Justin Griffin examines
the crime scene, conducts ballistic experiments, reenacts potential scenarios, speaks with the
top Carthage Jail experts, analyzes the current theories and even presents his own.
“If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall
be given him.” - New Testament, KJV, James 1:5
Many critics of the film seem to be members of the LDS church who seem rather offended that
anyone would question the increasingly non-specific official narrative provided by their church.
Which is interesting, because the foundation of their doctrine, as well as the mantra of their
massive global missionary effort, encourages people to ask sincere questions concerning
deeply held traditional beliefs.
“If we have the truth, it cannot be harmed by investigation. If we have not the truth, it ought to be harmed.”
- J. Reuben Clark, Former 1st Presidency of the LDS Church
Whether you agree or disagree with the final conclusion of the film, Justin Griffin invites
everyone to do their own research, and present their findings on the film’s official social media
page (link below). He seems to understand that it’s impossible to account for, and discover
answers for every possible scenario & question - which I found refreshing for a documentary film
of this type.
I would highly recommend this intense, well researched & beautifully produced film, although
the final reenactment scene contains violence perhaps not suitable for children.
