James Henry Fetzer is a philosopher of science and conspiracy theorist. Since the late 1970s, Fetzer has worked on assessing and clarifying the forms and foundations of scientific explanation, probability in science, philosophy of mind, and philosophy of cognitive science, especially artificial intelligence and computer science.

In the early 1990s Fetzer began promoting John F. Kennedy assassination conspiracy theories, then later 9/11 conspiracy theories and conspiracy theories regarding the 2002 death of Senator Paul Wellstone.

Fetzer's allegations and speculations have drawn strong criticism.
