Judy Campbell Exner and J.F.K.
|||HOME|||JUDY CAMPBELL EXNER|||MISCELLANEOUS PACK FRIENDS
Judy was introduced to JFK through Sinatra in 1960. She didn’t even know who JFK was, despite the fact that she had had a brief affair with his father, Joe Kennedy and had fended off advances from his brother, Ted Kennedy. The meeting sparked an affair between the two that would go down in history.

JFK and Judy consummated their relationship in the Plaza Hotel in New York on the eve of the New Hampshire presidential primary. The candidate played a recording of the musical Camelot. The next day, she was awakened by a bellman with a dozen red roses with a card that said, ‘Thinking of you – J.’

When he became President she became the delivery girl between him and Sam Giancana, sending secret messages and packages between the two, that allegedly included plots to assassinate Fidel Castro.

Judy became a regular visitor at the White House. “It gave me the strangest feeling to be standing there in the arms of the man I knew as John, but the whole world recognized as the 35th President of the United States. Then he kissed me and I forgot about the monuments and the parks. I think I was caught up a little with the intrigue of it. The sneaking around, a mild form of cloak-and-dagger, the anticipation, and ‘Boy, we didn’t get caught.’”

But the President was not an ideal lover. JFK, troubled by back pain, would habitually flop face up into bed, resplendent, and wait for her origenital embrace. “The feeling that I was there to service him really began to trouble me,” she wrote. Yet this miserable role did not quell her love. FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover had her tailed, not for any valid law enforcement purpose, but rather to be able to blackmail JFK, just as Hoover had blackmailed every previous President.

When JFK suggested that she engage in a threesome she froze him out, remembering the incident with Sinatra. After her display of disgust at the request, he was easily forgiven.

In 1963, Judy called JFK with the news that she was expecting his child. He asked her, "What are you going to do about it?" She aborted the child at a Chicago hospital in January 1963, and was never invited back to the Whitehouse. “The affair ended not because of any outside force, either from Hoover or anyone, but because of natural attrition. The spectre of the White House killed the romance,” or so Judy claimed.

After her split from JFK, Judy ran into the arms of mob boss, Sam Giancana.
