Conspiracy theory? Hoax? A bizarre twist on the "Paul is dead" phenomenon?
No. John Lennon was assassinated on December 8, 1980, while walking into the carriage entrance of the Dakota Building. He was shot by a disturbed young man who will not be named here. Lennon was cremated on December 10, 1980, and his ashes were given to Yoko Ono.
But John Lennon's legacy continues to grow, as does that of the Beatles. His music is as popular today as it was on December 8, 1980, and he remains a symbol of peace, hope, and political activism for millions of people.
