DEAD NOTES
The Last Word – The Assassination of John Lennon
On a cold December night in 1980, John Lennon stepped out of his limo alongside Yoko Ono. She walked ahead toward the Dakota’s vestibule. He followed behind… unaware that someone was waiting in the shadows.
In the premiere episode of Dead Notes, host Ben Cooper traces the final moments of Lennon’s life — from his quiet return to music to the man who believed ending it would give his own life meaning. This is the story of legacy, obsession, and a voice for peace silenced by violence.
