The assassination of president John F Kennedy in 1963 is the one that has been written about the most. Lots of unsound conspiracy theories in particular. It's a commonly expressed view that his killing changed America, that he would've pulled out of Vietnam etc.

Oh, I misunderstood, maybe Patrice Lumumba, the first elected leader of the independent Congo then?. They recently returned his remains (a single gold tooth) to Congo. After his death his body was dissolved in acid.
