He never explains how somebody would ever assume they would successfully frame this on a lone shooter while firing from multiple directions. He never explains how you successfully approach scores and scores of witnesses, police, Secret Service, military personnel, doctors, pathologists, ballistics experts, x-ray technicians, photographers, Oswald family members, whole commissions, etc., and persuade them all to obey illegal orders and bend over backwards making themselves all eternally loyal accessories to murder and treason. He never explains how doing these things is a better idea than just leaving well enough alone and saying Oswald must have had an accomplice who got away, which would have suited any conspiracy just fine.

[@DoBraveryFPS]

@@LRRPFco52 bullets don't always just hit something and stop, they keep going. If they hit soft tissue first, they'll often tumble or sway. Thus they might hit a rib sideways--flattening the side of the bullet. It will keep going until enough tissue slows it to a rest. Another bullet might hit bone or skull at full speed. It would dump some 1500 ft/lbs of energy in a closed container, causing the brain to exit one way, and push the head the opposite way. Hitting bone at full speed fragments the bullet. Those fragments hitting things like the inside of the windshield glass or chrome. It's possible a fragment hit the curb. It's also possible that the first round that missed also hit the curb. The majority of witnesses heard three shots. The witnesses who heard a gunshot or gunshot echo coming off the grassy knoll fence, and ran to the fence--did not see anyone there. A grassy knoll shot would have blown out the left ear of JFK, and possibly hit Jackie.

I have an issue with Thompson's description of the Harper fragment. The Harper fragment was occipital bone. Check of Larry Rivera's work. He has actually created a 3D model of the fragment and it fits right in the mid back of the skull where the bump is.

[@stddisclaimer8020]

@rickbucciarelli2778 Dr. J. Lawrence Angel, curator of physical anthropology at the Smithsonian Institute (who had studied hundreds of skeletons for law enforcement agencies and thousands of archeological skeletons) declared the Harper fragment to be “clearly parietal bone” that had come from “roughly the middle of the right parietal” area (i.e., above the right ear. There was no frontal shot in 3D nor any other dimension.

[@jackieow]

David Mantik, PhD physicist and MD specializing in radiology, verified the Harper Fragment came from an inch to the right of the external occipital protuberance, and nearby. The Harper fragment was blasted out the rear and resulted from the Z343 shot to the right temple. The Z250 bullet tracked (per Dr. Boswell autopsy notes and Mantik's revelations) from the external occipital protuberance area to between the vomer and the right eye orbit. This happened at Z250 and put JFK into an instant coma, which is why he starts to drop his hands and arms at Z251. At Z220 a frontal shot penetrated the windshield and then JFK's throat, jamming glass fragments into his face as seen by Parkland doctors and embalmer Tom Robinson. The Z286 storm sewer shot made a 7.62mm hole above JFK's right eye, seen by Tom Robinson, Quentin Schwinn (photo), Paul O'Connor, and Charles Crenshaw. As it shed mercury from the dum-dum load, it tracked to the back of his skull and exited above the occipital bone, as seen on Bethesda lateral skull x-ray. Also you can see the Z286 exit on good copies of the Mary Moorman picture. The bottom of this cowlick area wound shows a curved white line, which is the thickness of JFK's skull as just blasted open. The ejected fragment of his skull shows at Z286 above the Babushka Lady's shadow at its midpoint, flying up and to the left. The Z343 entrance from the diagonal front into JFK's right temple was seen as a 5.56mm wound by Tom Robinson, Dennis David, and Robert McClelland. It entered at the hairline halfway between JFK's right ear and right eye, as seen by the 3 witnesses just cited. Anyone who thinks JFK wasn't shot from the front is simply unaware of the multiple lines of evidence from multiple witnesses.@@stddisclaimer8020

[@LRRPFco52]

​@@stddisclaimer8020 Right front parietal bone is perfectly in line with a right front impact due to spalling. Bone fragments from the point of impact typically eject at extreme angles to the bullet flight path due to supersonic transfer of energy to the soft and hard tissues. Structures can't get out of the way fast enough so they eject perpendicular to POI. If the anthropologist studied terminal ballistics as much as bones, he would know this.

24:10 These people were subject to two different splattering events. At Z313 the material exited out the right side of JFK's head, as seen in live action by Bill Newman and Emory Roberts, which is why Roberts knew JFK was dead and therefore called back agent Jack Ready. That splatter was in the general direction of Jackson and Chaney. At Z343 the splatter was to the rear and to JFK's left, which caught everyone else on the list, viz. Clint Hill, Hargis, Martin, and Sam Kinney.

[@1olddirtroad]

Emory Roberts called off the agent at Love Field. Emory is a person of interest as law enforcement agencies say. He did NOT call the agent back because he "knew" JFK was already dead ! Stop your bull $hit

[@LRRPFco52]

Has anyone ever discussed the difference between spalling and spatter with you? Supersonic impacts of high velocity missiles cause spalling when they impact the head, since the skull is a hard barrier with intracranial pressure. With rifle fire to the head, we generally see more violent wounding effects at the point of impact, but the destruction to the skull is such that it cavitates the skull and blows brain matter in multiple directions.

[@jackieow]

You are referring to vague generalities, my account deals with specifics of the JFK case. Spalling and/or spatter may or may not occur and at different levels. Even if a bullet is subsonic. Ditto for how much punching vs. how much cavitation. It depends on the alloy, the angle, the shape, and the velocity among other factors. Claiming "we generally see...." is, as suggested earlier, just a generality lacking focus or applicability. Clue: if you see two massive jets of anatomical debris exiting in two different directions from two places on the skull at two times during the parade and at two different points along the parade, you have two different wounds from two different bullets. And if one is from the front and the other is from the rear, that clearly means two different rifles and two different shooters and two different firing positions no matter how much spin you try to apply in the interest of fabricating confusion. Additionally there is a third independent bullet hole near the external occipital protuberance from the Z250 shot stopping at the front side of his head inside his face, and there is a fourth independent shot at Z286 from above the right eye, through the brain, and out the rear at the top of the occipital bone for a total of four head shots. Which is why JFK's head couldn't be dummied up locally at Parkland by John Liggett, and had to go for major reworking by Humes at Bethesda. And it was seen being done by Tom Robinson and Ed Reed. Noise about spalling and sputter doesn't change the fact they saw 6 different entry and exit wounds crunched and sawed into one big hole. Red herrings fool only those who are impressed by false distractions.@@LRRPFco52

@@jackieowI agree. I've personally observed through optics at least 180,000 high velocity rifle impacts just in the last 14 years, and have studied countless hours of high speed photography, conducted and studied substantial amounts of terminal ballistics research over the last 4 decades, and have published technical materials vetted by multiple ballisticians and engineers who specialize in this field. I have also seen in-person the results of head trauma from rifle fire, and have gone through live tissue training in the military at the JSOMC at Fort Bragg. The near-90° skull fragment you see in Zapruder jetting into the sky is very classic for a right, frontal impact. It does feel like something is off with the Zapruder film, with weird ghosting in between the sprocket holes, and stuttering right during the sequence between the yellow kill zone curb markings. Those remind me of how we would bracket a kill zone for ambushes, only using aiming stakes at the shooter's firing position on the assault line if in the woods, but then different control measures in urban terrain. The assassination bears very telltale signs of a well-planned and executed urban sniper ambush, using Techniques, Tactics, & Procedures that were common to the OSS and Mafia. Remember that the MAFIA was formed to fight French invasions centuries ago, so it was organized as a partisan military resistance force of undercover bosses, captains, and soldiers sworn to protect their homeland. It evolved into a criminal enterprise network between periods of conflict. This was almost too perfect for the OSS to recruit from during the War.

I have also seen in-person the results of head trauma from rifle fire, and have gone through live tissue training in the military at the JSOMC at Fort Bragg. [This gives you a good background. But it does not predict the next wound you will see, nor whether photographs of it have been tampered with. Chances are the 180,000 doesn't include a lot of exploding dum-dum bullets I would venture to guess.] The near-90° skull fragment you see in Zapruder jetting into the sky is very classic for a right, frontal impact. [Any average guy you see walking down the street will likely have two eyes and two ears and a nose and a mouth. Wanted murderers in the FBI's Ten Most Wanted posters generally have two eyes and two ears and a nose and a mouth. That doesn't mean the characteristics of the average guy mean he is a wanted criminal. The 90 degree skull fragment you see jetting into the sky is probably you referring to Zapruder frame Z313. It might be a skull fragment or it might be a blob of brain tissue. Being classic for = resembling is NOT proof of identity or equality. There was a right frontal impact at the right temple, but it was a punched hole about 5mm in diameter, as in fact seen afterward in real life by Tom Robinson and Dennis David and Robert McClelland. So that was clearly, in this case, a punch in and not a fragment coming out and rising at 90 degrees. That bullet was likely an explosive dum-dum round loaded with mercuric fulminate or lead azide which blasted out the right rear occipitoparietal area with a 4x4 inch exit.. If you look at Mary Moorman's photo, snapped at Z316, notice the far side of JFK's head [where you can't see] already has jetted out the exit debris from the Z313 shot. Notice the 4x4 inch hole in the back of JFK's skull hasn't formed yet. Because it didn't happen until after Z316. You can tell Zapruder equivalent times for all this by paying attention to the position of policemen's motorcycle plexiglass windscreens. Because as Greer was slowing down the limousine the police were not slowing, and so in relative terms gaining on the presidential limousine. We know the right temple large wound (not the 5mm hole) was a bullet exit because it happened 10 feet in front of Bill Wyman and he thought he saw JFK's ear coming off toward him. What had happened the instant before was the bullet entered at the right occipitoparietal area, its dum-dum explosive pressurized the right cranium, and a blowout happened where the bone was weakest and thinnest, namely high on the right temple. It started to open as a thin curved slit, and so under maximum pressure the pressurized blenderized brain material and blood jetted upward. It was like a breadbox door barely opening at the top with a hinge across the bottom, and many of the Parkland doctors didn't even realize there was a wound there because being a lid or flap in form it was sealed up later so as to be practically invisible. The top was blown cracked open but the bottom remained hinged because the bone is thicker there and there is more connective tissue to hold things together. If a piece of bone had blown out the lid exit, it would have been noticeable for its absence. There wasn't any such event. So the bone jetting up in Z313 isn't bone but white brain matter. As the lid opened further and more ejecta was blown out, Bill Newman could see a hollow area "big enough you could set a baseball in there" inside the right cranium, so he pulled his wife and kids to the ground to protect them. Robert Schorlemer and James Carrico were the first doctors (or M4 medical student) to see JFK at Parkland. Schorlemer noticed the flap or lid at JFK's temple, now blasted by the second megablaster exploding shot at Z342-343, and noticed it opened outward and toward the left (due to the Z342-343 megablaster cutting the hinge at the right and center). It opened outward because that's how it was blasted, from the interior, from an exploding dum-dum bullet that had come from the rear at Z313 then was further blasted and the hinge partially cut at Z343. Most likely from Harry Weatherford at the Central Records Building. Z206 to the shoulder was deliberately weak, came from about 45 degrees above-- likely Dal-Tex or the Central Records Building. It entered only 1.25 inches and startle goosed JFK into flinching his head up for the Z220 shot. Instead of finishing the event with a head entry it bungled low into his throat. Z220 was a level shot almost parallel to the ground, going uphill, as judged by the hole in the windshield and the hole in JFK's throat. The Z250 underpowered shot was almost level in trajectory, so it was probably from second floor Dal-Tex. Instant coma, ergo JFK starts to drop his hands and arms at Z251. It was almost straight back to front, but the Z313 bullet was oblique from left direction at the rear to out at the right temple. The diagonal path compared to Z250 means it came from left of Dal-Tex, namely the Central Records Building. On super excellent copies of Mary Moorman you can barely see a dark spot at the entry. Either a dot smudge or the entry hole from Z313. After Z313 and the blowout out JFK's right temple, Z342 shows no gouge in the back of JFK's head. Z343 shows a gouge in front of Jackie's white glove. So the final head shot happened between Z342 and Z343. Clint Hill said he was massively splashed with blood when he was at the rear of the limousine almost ready to jump aboard, and that matches that we see in Z342-343 as Clint Hill is mid-air and almost aboard. So that's when a different megablaster bullet and wound was coming from front right at the 5mm temple hole toward left (direction) rear on the same oblique path as Z313 but backwards. The path was hugging the skull enough to emerge on the right side of the skull with the 4x4 exit hole and destroy the Z313 entrance hole, but the bullet trajectory was leftward and to the rear. This was a trick shot, so two bullets made only one apparent wound. Just a magic trick to fool the suckers. We don't see the bloodbath coming out of JFK's rear head at Z343 because it was airbrushed away. We also don't see it at another time because this happened at Z343. But Linda Willis and her family saw the huge red geyser to the rear, lit up by the sunlight, and Jackie saw the blood and brains and skull fragments on the trunk to go retrieve even though they are airbrushed from Zapruder also.] It does feel like something is off with the Zapruder film, [to put it mildly. See "Altered History" by Douglas Horne, 6 hrs plus. Also John Costella's nine-part video series.] with weird ghosting in between the sprocket holes, and stuttering right during the sequence between the yellow kill zone curb markings.

The assassination bears very telltale signs of a well-planned and executed urban sniper ambush, using Techniques, Tactics, & Procedures that were common to the OSS and Mafia. [When Dan Marvin was at Ft. Bragg Green Beret sniper assassination school, his class saw the Babushka Lady's film version of the JFK hit. When it was over the instructor said, "This is an excellent example of how to conduct an urban sniper assassination." Babushka Lady didn't get fame and fortune like Zapruder did because she was on assignment for the CIA, like the guy with the still camera in back of Jackie at Z342-343. The guy to the right on the curb behind Greer is Ike Altgens.] Remember that the MAFIA was formed to fight French invasions centuries ago, [in Spain to stand up to Napoleon, when the "little war" was being fought. Little war in Spanish = guerilla] so it was organized as a partisan military resistance force of undercover bosses, captains, and soldiers sworn to protect their homeland. It evolved into a criminal enterprise network between periods of conflict. This was almost too perfect for the OSS to recruit from during the War. [That deal was cut with Lucky Luciano, including mafia help for the invasion of Sicily in particular, and keeping saboteurs away from docked ships in the US. Also the US Government allowing their international dope trafficking.] OSS and CIA were populated with Mafia hitmen and soldiers in the 1940s, along with hundreds of Russian double agents. [As Sam Giancana said, there is not much of a line of distinction between the mafia and the CIA. During the Civil War the Czar sent a fleet to protect the East Coast and the Caribbean. Another protected the west coast. He had a few acknowledged Russian spies on foot spying out the Confederate positions and reporting them to Union generals.]@@LRRPFco52

Amateur question: By nature of being on the overpass, would Holland have had a clear perception of each shot? It would seem not being down in the buildings and further away, the echoes would be less. Plus he wouldn't hear the reverb from the shots off the overpass and back toward the buildings since he was on top of it. That would lend credence to him being able to pick up the last 2 shots being so close together as two distinct shots, particularly from 2 different types of guns.

I think he should bring ballistics knowledge to this. People don’t have much experience with light objects penetrating at high speed, they have experience moving heavy objects at a slow rate of speed. Speed and energy react differently when you invert these variables.

I take your point. But have you ever seen a convincing modelling of the head-shot that showed such a powerful backward movement? Yes, I know it is a difficult thing to model accurately (a cadaver head isn’t going to react like a live human’s head). But even so.

[@MinnMorke]

Head shots with x-rays, I thought Nova’s documentary “Cold Case JFK” covered that and was convincing.

[@-danR]

Thompson should have gone with his original granular analysis, which has been reiterated from the beginning to the present day, including computed analyses, and frame-smoothed variants whose algorithms are tuned for motion-decomposition and not to support any theory: Kennedy's head moves _forward_ , an inch or two. Even if we account for Thompson's stated motion-blur and possible brake-pedal tap (which latter would affect Jackie's arm). The computer interpolates a movement forward in the frames because (having read no Posner book and seen no Oliver Stone movie) that's what it _'sees'._ It's there, and no blood-spatter analysis or rain-shadow theory can make it go away.

[@TitaniumTurbine]

@@MrKenny777 I’ll throw this out there for people to chew on. We now have modeled ballistic dummies complete with life-sized organs, blood, and bone that is completely representative of human anatomy, however our ability to create the same level of pressure, blood pressure in these bodies is in it’s infancy. Currently, a shot like that into one of these bodies is not going to spray blood under pressure - it’s just going to spray debris. Once we’re able to build a working pressure system, I do think the single shooter theory will become more acceptable, based on what we see in the Zapruder film. As it stands, only a few people, mostly KZbinrs, have recreated the events of that day with one of these more modern (non-pressurized) ballistic dummies. The problem is, you’d have to determine several factors, including the wind speed/direction of that day. And the actual trajectory of that shot. I suggest everyone try this, but I recently drove (again) 11 miles an hour down my block and it’s so incredibly slow, it was not only hard to do in my car but I felt like I was going so slow that a neighbor would think I was stalking someone. Lol This creates two conflicting problems in my mind: 1) certainly a target moving just 11 miles an hour is not a hard target for a marksman to hit and 2) the wind generated from the speed of the vehicle is not enough by itself to spray liquid to the rear (remember though that wind speed can be induced by climate). Lastly, to me, I believe the speed of the car in the Zapruder film is twice as fast than real time. My opinion though.

[@gravitypronepart2201]

​@@MrKenny777well, it's important to remimber the effect the back brace he was wearing. It had a stiffening effect on both shots. He didn't slump but remained figidly upright after the first shot that hit him. The same rigidity caused his head, after being propelled foward, slingshot back.

The experts from the US Army and the FBI who had tested the rifle discovered that it was actually not usable in its original state: Shims had to be applied to the telescopic sight before the rifle could be aimed. 1 Even after the telescopic sight had been repaired, it proved unreliable and inaccurate. 2 The condition of both the bolt and the trigger pull meant that the rifle could not be aimed accurately. 3 In summary the rifle discovered on the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository could not have caused any of the wounds to Kennedy, Connally or Tague, except by accident.

At the photo on 42:13 Zapruder is already gone, he was fast getting out of there.

[@mkii1964]

1. The Z-film clearly shows the right side of the president’s head opening up (exit wound). According to Josiah, the shot was from the right front. There was no exit wound on the left side of JFK’s head. (No Parkland Dr. ever stated they saw a left side exit wound) 2. JFK was leaning to his left at Z313 and Josiah is not taking into account this and the forward motion of the limo, also the wind speed and direction. “southerly winds between 15-30mph would push temperatures up and with the unexpected sunshine” It’s possible the witnesses who were hit with debris rode or ran through debris that was blown up and away rapidly decelerating and falling back down and being blown to the rear by the prevailing wind. 3. Jackie, the closest witness never mentions being blasted with brain and blood (she was mere inches away directly to his left looking directly at him) Blood spatter patterning is very much a science in a room with walls and objects, not so much outside in the wind and in a vehicle that’s moving. S.A. Holland stated he saw smoke rising from around the Grassy Knoll. Modern ammunition is essentially “smokeless” unless someone was using a muzzle loader, I find his testimony not 100% credible… I respect Josiah Thompson but he’s proved nothing new or conclusive….. Next!

@@minkowski4d there’s a lot of things I don’t understand about the assassination. One, namely the different descriptions of the head wound by the Parkland staff. I know what I see in the Zapruder film, and it appears exactly what Bill Newman states in his interviews and testimony. He mentions seeing his “ear fly off” (of course it didn’t) the side of his head opening up, and the Newman’s were the closest witnesses to JFK during the assassination. The Z film has not been doctored. Jackie also stated she was holding the top of his head together (not the rear) Grisly for sure. I can only assume that the Parkland Doctors were very busy heroically trying to save the President’s life and possibly in the adrenaline filled atmosphere never really examined the wound that closely with Jackie in and out so often. Again, I wasn’t there and have had to settle that in my own mind somehow…. In the late 70’s I started out as a conspiracy believer, bought Dave Lifton’s Best Evidence in the early 80’s and have seen so much ridiculousness that I have come to the conclusion in my own mind LHO did it, alone.

@@mkii1964 Absolutely true about the Parkland doctors. But medical staff and FBI agents present at Bethesda said under oath that they saw a gaping hole in the back of the head. And I have the same feeling as you have: it's just impossible to put all these different information correctly together because the Warren commission did such a mess (Bill Newman wasn't even called....). That's why I say that the assassination remains unclear and we can't 100% certain what really happened. However, I still see the odds of LHO acting alone and pulling off three shots as more likely than a setup of multiple shoots (LHO and one, maybe two others). Let's say something like 70/30 or 60/40. Being said that, I do not understand people stating that it was 100% LHO or 100% a conspiracy...the latter as you said mostly ridiculous theories (6 shots and more, secret service shooting the president etc)

The most shocking US Presidental assassination is that of JFK - partly because it is so recent and party because it stifled hope in a brighter outlook for many in the world.

Fortunately, for those of us over the pond, only one British Prime Minister has been assassinated: Spencer Perceval (1762-1812).

Every rifle fire injury I've seen to the head with a center 1/3 impact causes pretty extreme deformity and brain tissue loss. The only ones that are rather benign are when you hit outside that 1/3 center, and the bullet rides in between the scalp and skull. JFK was clearly hit at least once in the skull, enough to cause traumatic deformity, skull fragmentation and ejection of bone fragments, and cavitation of the brain compartment with substantial evacuation of brain matter. Ruth Paine told Oswald about the TSBD job, after concealing a much higher-paying job from him. He had previously worked for a photographic maps company who supplied mapping services to the US Dept of Defense, to include maps of Cuba. Ruth Paine's sister was literally an employee of the Central Intelligence Agency, living in Falls Church, VA, at the time. She did studies on using video training for Radar operators and its efficiency in reducing manual-based reading training. This info has only come to light recently for obvious reasons. George de Mohrenschildt introduced the Oswalds to the Paine family. George was a Russian emigre, OSS agent during the War, and CIA operative at the time under cover as a petroleum geologist. The more you study Oswald's life, the more you see him surrounded by three types of people.

[@ghostsignal]

Oswald was hired about a month before Kennedy's trip to Dallas was even decided upon, and his emplyoment there was only temporary. Also, Roy Truly, the supervisor at the TSBD testified that Oswald and another man both got hired in on the same day, but Truly intended to send one of them to another building a few blocks away. He chose Oswald to work in the TSBD building on a whim. And Oswald applied for another job during his time at the TSBD. Oswald was definitely an intelligence agent at some point, but at the time of Kennedy's assassination he certainly had reason to be disaffected enough to do something crazy. I know if I had been a Marine and a CIA agent a few years ago, and now couldn't even afford a house or car of my own, I'd be pretty pissed.

An open-top motorcade could have easily been cancelled if it had kept raining. Have you ever fallen on hard times? You don't automatically lose everything you've owned up to that point.

Fascinating presentation. However, the theory presented assumes that ONLY the shots can cause the movement of the debris from the head wound. But we know that the president's head snapped forcefully back and to the left rear, exactly the direction of some of the debris. Moreover, that rearward movement of the head itself can be explained by a neuro-muscular reaction to the bullet wound to the brain. A shot TO the right front would have produced an exit wound in the left or rear of the head and that simply was not found at the autopsy. Moreover, it's clear from the Zapruder film itself that the wound on the right side of the head is a massive exit wound, not a neat round little entrance wound. Plus, where did this 4th bullet go?

That’s why they always have to add those caveats. The real “magic” bullet would be one that went straight through JFK, then didn’t hit anyone or anything and vanished. And the thought that a sniper would position himself in front of the motorcade, where he’s more likely to be spotted by the Secret Service or police is ludicrous.

I was at the time, looking for any programmes which offered an opinion from the point of view of Lee Harvey Oswald’s defence counsel, had there been any. I mistakenly assumed that Mr Munger’s two-video presentation was pretty much what I was looking for. Unfortunately I couldn’t have been more wrong. The more I watched the videos, the more disappointed I became, particularly by the tone of remarks made, besmirching those who aren’t for whatever reason, in a position to defend themselves - Dr Robert McClelland and Dr Cyril Wecht included. Is there an impartial group of contributors (‘conspiracy theorists’ as Mr Munger’s frequently describes them) that I could get some clarifications and substantions of some of the ‘facts’ presented by mr munger? Please note, I’m not looking revisit the whole series of events of that week in 1963, I’m only trying to determine if there was sufficient evidence to convict LHO at the time of the fatal assault by Jack Ruby.

I’m not sure how the responses/replies/comments work here, but my note here is in regards to an email I received today from JB. I’ll try to keep it reasonably short while still addressing each segment of the topics you discussed . But, I first must ask to what degree have you researched the entire event, not just 11/22/63? And, what resources did you use to form your opinion? Judging from what you wrote, it seems you rely heavily on the government reports and the evidence presented by the committees formed by the government. Have you delved into data/evidence compiled by any independent non-governmental agencies? Here is why I ask those questions…are you aware LBJ was due to be indicted? Are you aware that Hoover was due for mandatory retirement? Are you aware that Earl Warren originally refused to lead the WC? Are you aware that he was basically blackmailed and forced to head the panel? Are you aware of AG Katzenbach’s letter to Hoover/LBJ? Are you aware that LBJ instructed the DPD to abort the investigation once LHO was arrested? I’m wondering what your answers will be, because you described the WC as “bipartisan”; I strongly disagree, I see it is heavily lopsided. Are you aware that Senator Russel initially refused to sign off on the WCR’s findings? Did you know he wrote his own report? Are you aware that another suspect was arrested and interrogated that day for the murder of JFK? Are you aware of two independent reports refuting the matching of the ammunition? Have you read FBI Weapons Expert Frazier’s initial inspection of the alleged murder weapon? The report he wrote on 11/23/63 less than 24 hours after the shooting? How about Vickie Adams testimony and her background before and after she gave her statement. There is PLENTY more I’d eagerly discuss with you about the WC, but I’m attempting to keep this short. I know all about the Z-Film. Are you aware of the chain of custody/events of that film? Are you familiar with the NPIC? Know the name Dino Brugioni? Familiar with the display boards that were made Saturday night? How about Sunday night? How about Kodak’s “skunkworks” division (that’s not their real name, but I think you know my sense of humor by now). Let’s jump to Alvarez. Do you know how he gathered the data for his test? Do you know how his data was analyzed? That he searched for objects that would coincide with his “Jet Theory”? That everything he shot did not show or experience the expected and desired result? So, his theory is in fact correct for the objects that reacted in the direction his theory professed, but that not all of the objects he tested showed the exact same results. I liken that to “knowing the answer before you ask the question”. Was he a brilliant man? Without a doubt. But his tests/results are inconclusive. I’ll stop here for now. Always looking forward to sparring with an educated opponent; it’s when I get in a mind battle with someone who is unarmed that frustrates me. I’m not the smartest guy out there, but I’ve done some homework and I’m pretty stubborn. Had the government at least provided a hint of defense, or been unbiased in their presentations, I might have a different outlook. And, please understand I’m not defending Oswald the person; I never knew him. I’m defending the fact that the accused was never given a trial, never given any legal counsel, and, is only guilty in a court of public (and I don’t think I’d say popular public) opinion.

16:20 The last shot didn't happen at Z312 or Z313. That was the megablaster shot from the rear, in at the right occipitoparietal area that came out as a flap (hinge at bottom) at the right temple. It was followed by the megablaster shot between Z342-343 which was in at the right temple and out at the right occipitoparietal area. A trick shot that repeated the earlier shot but backwards, and it also destroyed the entrance hole from the earlier shot. So there was one big gaping tunnel through JFK's head but it was done by two shooters and two bullets for the sake of deception. Afterwards the planners can claim "the shot" (as if there were only one) came either from the front or from the back, depending on who you want to set up as the patsy. In Z342 the rear of JFK's skull isn't visibly gouged, but due to the final shot the Z343 frame shows a rear gouge out of JFK's head that is highlighted by the background of Jackie's white glove. Because the exit of the Z313 shot was a flap hinged at the bottom, it opened first at the top where the bone is thinner and weaker. As it opened at the top, with maximum pressure conditions, that is why JFK's brain material first jetted upward. By Z317 the flap had opened more so it was now horizontal, and now solid chunks of brain could dribble out.

[@peterfraser9070]

The only reason this "front shot" claim can be made and believed is because of the 'back and to the left'. Of course the autopsy photos / x-rays and Z Film do not show this, therefore it then becomes necessary to claim these things have been "doctored". There is no other reason for Thompson to make these false claims other than he knows he can play into people's eagerness to believe in a 2nd shooter and sell books.

[@jackieow]

JFK was shot 6 times from 5 different shooting positions, and 4 of the shots were into his head. Details are in other places on this thread where I have posted on this thread (longwinded text to explain it all. Look around and you can find the posting. If not, let me know and I will re-post for you.) The shots were Z250 near the external occipital protuberance, which is why he goes unconscious and starts to drop his hands and arms at Z251, as you can see in Zapruder. The next head shot was Z286 above his right eye, as seen by 4 post-mortem witnesses (details in the longwinded write-up). Next he was hit at Z313 which was in the back of his head on the right side and out the right temple. The last shot and the last head shot was in at the right temple, between Z342 and Z343. It was a 5.56 mm wound at the hairline between the right ear and right eye. The entrance hole was seen by Tom Robinson, Dennis David, and Robert McClelland. The Vince Palamara interview of Robert Schorlemer gives more details of the flap nature of the wound. Yes, there is zero evidence of it on Zapruder. Because Zapruder is a mixture of lies and hoaxes, see also "Altered History" by Douglas Horne. The autopsy was also highly faked, see testimony of Jim Jenkins who was there including the Valuetainment interview. Jenkins also accounts for the huge blackmail that was done to get Humes to fake the autopsy in multiple ways. Dan Marvin (see his videos) was a Green Beret trained assassination sniper. He was solicited by the CIA at Ft. Bragg to kill Lt. Cmdr. William Bruce Pitzer. Not because Pitzer was a disloyal security risk, but because he had an untampered film of the JFK autopsy that the CIA and military brass didn't want to see the light of day. Like I said, see Dan Marvin's videos or read his book. If you look at the Mary Moorman photo and pay attention to the position of Bobby Hargis's motorcycle windscreen, and compare it to Zapruder, you can see Mary Moorman took her photo at Z316. Look at the back of JFK's head. Notice there is no big hole blasted in it yet, and this is after Z313. Are you starting to get the picture? Forty doctors and nurses at Parkland saw this huge hole. So did the receiving autopsy people at Bethesda, see the youtube video of Paul O'Connor. The big hole was blasted in JFK's head after Z313. At JFK's cowlick area, above the occipital bone in Z316 Mary Moorman, you can see the two inch exit wound from the Z286 shot if you look around for a quality detail copy of Mary Moorman. The lower part of the wound displays a white curved line, which is the thickness of JFK's skull as blasted out at Z286. Look at Zapruder's Z286, at the middle of the Babushka Lady's shadow. At the middle of the shadow but above it, flying up and to the left, is the two-inch piece of skull and hair that was blasted out of JFK's rear head at Z286. Look at the wound on the Bethesda lateral x-ray of JFK's skull. You will see this wound bullet dumped a lot of mercury globules, proving it was a dum-dum bullet loaded with mercury. The big v-cut on JFK's right forehead, visible in Bethesda autopsy photos, was a v-cut made to excise the bullet wound in the skin and make it disappear. This v-cut is never made in standard autopsies, and was done simply to hide the evidence. Look at JFK's head in Z286, and the angle of his collapse from the Z250 coma shot. Backtrack the bullet from above the occipital bone to the head entry wound above the eye back out to the origin. It was a curb-level shot, viz. it was from the storm sewer drain. Notice Sergio Arcacha Smith had his apartment searched after he tried to kill Ramblin Rose Cheramie, and Smith had a copy of the Dealey Plaza storm sewer drain system. Now you know why. Jim Marrs found a girl whose mother and companions had seen a sniper shooting at JFK from the storm sewer drain. In later years they poured cement into this drain area and piled up several layers of asphalt in front of it to try to make it look like the Z286 shot was impossible. The Z343 shot was from the front right, and its path retraced the Z313 shot through JFK's head. Z313 from the oblique left rear, Z343 from the oblique right front. It was a trick shot, designed to get people confused and keep them confused. But you don't have to stay confused. The big exit hole from Z343 blasted away the much smaller entrance hole from Z313, to confuse analysts. Bill and Sheila Newman saw the blast of gore out of the right temple shot at Z313, and some of it shows on the altered Zapruder version. We know from Gino Brugioni that the final Zapruder tampered edit only shows about a third of the blood and gore that came out at Z313. Secret Service Agent Emory Roberts saw it directly live as it happened. Roberts saw (from the Queen Mary chase car) huge quantities of brains and blood blasted out JFK's right temple, and knew immediately that JFK was dead. Which is why he wouldn't let agent Jack Ready jump off the limo. He knew LBJ was the only living person there for them to protect in the presidential series (in addition to Jackie and Lady Bird). Look at Z342 and there is no gouge in the back of JFK's head. At Z343 there is a gouge, highlighted by Jackie's white glove as background. There was a huge geyser of brains and skull and cerebrospinal fluid out the back of JFK's head. Seen by the Willis family ("The Men Who Killed Kennedy" 9 part video series. Don't miss it.) It also sprayed across Bobby Hargis, B.J. Martin, Sam Kinney, and some spilled/blasted onto Chaney and Jackson. You don't see this on Zapruder, or the junk left on the trunk, because it was edited out. Jackie was climbing back to get brain and skull debris for the Parkland doctors (given to Pepper Jenkins = Marion Jenkins, anesthesiologist), but the anatomical debris has also been scam-edited off the trunk in the Zapruder altered version. Zapruder was highly faked, and the autopsy was highly faked including the photos. Again, you need to learn from modern discoveries such as "Altered History" = six hours by Douglas Horne. Only simpletons rely on the old tired lies of the Warren Commission, which was hurried to fake lies by Lyndon Johnson because he wanted to win the November 1964 election and he wanted Warren etc. to bury the truth first. Let me know if you have any further questions, but you ought to understand by now there were two small head wounds first, then two big blaster head wounds that overlapped on purpose. Humes was seen at Bethesda (seen by autopsy technicians Tom Robinson and Ed Reed) taking saws and other hardware to JFK's skull to cut and crush the 6 different holes into one big hole, to get ready for the official autopsy done upstairs. The job he was blackmailed into (by Adm. Galloway and Adm. Burkley) was to explain all the head damage with only one bullet. And Humes was blackmailed beyond that also.@@peterfraser9070

Salandria was right... the wound in JFK's throat was a wound of entry and I can prove it using Mr. Thomson's book Last Second in Dallas.

It makes no sense to involve more people than neccessary to achieve the goal. Mr. Thompson, as do most researchers, ignore what the Secret Service initially found compelling regarding the Zapruder film... the first sequence of shots just as the limousine disappeared behind the Stemmons Freeway sign, (the only part of the Z-Film which shows definitive signs of damage and missing frames). This squence, and specifically this sequence, is what proved that more than one gunman had to be involved, and was directly responsible for the birth of the "single-bullet-theory".

"Where's the exit wound at the front of Kennedy's head from the (last) head shot from the rear which JT believes occurred, per frames 317 onwards? No-one at Parkland described any such wound to the front of JFKs head." That is not correct. Dr. Adolph Giesecke said that he saw that parts of JFK's skull were missing as far forward as just above his eyebrow, which is precisely what is shown in both the anterior and lateral x-rays. But naturally the majority of the Parkland doctors and nurses would have missed the more forward damage to JFK's head because at the time it was mostly obscured by his thick hair and his scalp. Remember that at Parkland, unlike Bethesda, they were not conducting an autopsy, and thus they never pulled back JFK's hair and scalp to view anything even remotely close to all 100 percent of the damage to his skull, nor did they take a single x-ray of his head.

@@prb9013 "Actually, Dr Giesecke's account to the WC is limited and he cites hearsay as he wasnt in Trauma Room 1 for long before he attended to the Governor." "Hearsay"? He may have cited hearsay on other matters, but on the matter of the damage to JFK's skull he did not say that he was repeating someone else's observations, he instead said that he saw this himself. "Indeed, even accepting what he apparently said about JFKs cranial damage from the browline, that neither tells us it was caused by an entry wound from the front or an exit wound from the rear." Not that by itself, maybe. But I brought this up in response to you falsely claiming that "No-one at Parkland described any such wound to the front of JFK's head." Yes, at least one did, so "no-one" is provably false. You also seem to be forgetting the Zapruder film. Immediately after his head is struck, by far the most obvious damage to his head is in front of his right ear, with those big, horrible flaps of bone and scalp. No damage even remotely as serious can be seen anywhere in the entire rear half of his head in any frame. The hole in the right rear of his head described at Parkland is barely visible in the film. The damage in front of his right ear is many times more obvious. And I don't buy the claim made by some that those horrible flaps were "added" to the film later and that this is evidence of "alteration" to the film. Abraham Zapruder himself, only two hours after the assassination on live television, before he or anyone else had yet seen the developed film for the first time, said that he saw the right side of JFK's head explode. Not the rear. The side. And as he was saying this, we can see him place his own right hand on the right side of his head in front of his right ear to demonstrate. And almost all of the other closest witnesses on JFK's right also said that it was the side, not the rear, of his head which they saw explode, including Emmet Hudson, Bill Newman, Gayle Newman, and Marilyn Sitzman herself, standing beside Zapruder on the pedestal. That's way too much corroboration for the damage seen on the side of JFK's head in front of his right ear to be a mere figment or a later alteration to the film. And why wasn't that more forward damage especially noticeable at Parkland? Simple: because after she climbed back into the seat and had her husband's head in her lap, Jackie closed those flaps, so that at Parkland the more forward damage to his skull was mostly obscured by JFK's scalp and his thick hair (which was also matted with congealing blood, making the underlying damage to the skull even more difficult to see). How do I know this? Because Jackie herself said so. She said she was trying to hold his head together, trying to keep his brains from falling out, and she said it was mostly the *top* of his head and his hair that she was trying to hold on, not the rear of his head. "The autopsy pictures and x-rays have their own well documented problems anyway so are largely unreliable." Speaking for the moment of the x-rays only, I have been studying this assassination since 1988, and to the present day I've still never seen any real proof that the x-rays did not genuinely represent the state of JFK's skull at the time they were taken. What is your proof that the x-rays are "unreliable"? "Additionally, Thompson referenced the blood and brain spatter on the police outriders caused by the frontal headshot at 313 but makes no reference to similar particulate matter covering the Connollys or Greer or Kellerman if the second headshot had been from the TSBD." Oh, so just because Tink Thompson didn't mention it it automatically means that it didn't happen? It couldn't be that the true reason he didn't mention it was because he was being biased and selective in his citation of evidence? You didn't know that both Connallys testified that immediately after the head shot they saw pieces of JFK's brain land all over them and all over the inside of the car? You didn't know that Kellerman said that immediately after the head shot, material from JFK's head flew between him and Greer and struck the dashboard?

If I have a bias, as surely most of us do, it's towards a conspiracy and away from the lone nut theories. That said, one of the few things that is totally clear to me is that 'every cell in my body' does NOT tell me the shot simply came from the front, watching the Zapruder film. Neither does every cell tell me it came from the rear, either. I'm not an expert in ballistics or analyzing assassinations. If you told me (and demonstrated) that an explosive round was fired, one that was designed to blow on impact, then of course I would tend to think it struck from the front. If you told me a combination of the shock-wave (supersonic ordinance) and kinetic energy of the round could combine to cause an explosion as we see, centered on a particular side of the skull, again given the right evidence I'm sure you could convince me. I can't see a reason why someone with no skin in the game, merely looking at the film, someone without any particular expertise, would firmly conclude one thing or another. FWIW, which is not much really, but I think there probably was a conspiracy, at the very least to cover up lax security arrangements. Maybe there were warnings that were ignored. Maybe there were plots to kill Kennedy, which were then made redundant by the actions of a lone nut. Maybe the lax security arrangements and concealment of credible threats was actually the plot, given the various groups that might have been pleased with the outcome. Oswald was apparently under constant surveillance during his time in Soviet Russia. Perhaps the coverup was because it was embarrassing for the US Intelligence services that such an individual was able to take a pot-shot at General Walker, be a minor media figure (interviewed on the radio), of interest to the FBI in November, and still be roaming around a free man for the President's visit.

33:32 Fragments 1 and 2 are from the Z313 shot as the right temple exit flap first opens up. This is when there is maximum pressure from the explosive in the dum-dum tip, and the flap has at this instant only a small crack opening at its top to channel the brain debris upward. Neither 1 nor 2 is the Harper Fragment. David Mantik established the Harper Fragment is from the occipital region near the external occipital protuberance. This means the Harper Fragment was blasted backwards and to the left by the diagonal vector forces of the Z342-343 shot. Z313 blew out the right temple. Z343 blew out the right occipitoparietal area with a 4x4 inch gaping hole. The two shots overlapped, by design, from two different sniper directions. The two fragments shown here are probably chunks of brain tissue, but might be other bone fragments or pieces of the right temporal aponeurosis.

I have always thought he was shot from the front one time only. There is no way the kill shot came from behind especially at that angle. The small amount of splatter in the front came the front impact of the bullet on his head. You can clearly see that in the film. The larger portion blew out the back of his head. All of which is consistent with getting shot from the front.

[@RexBernard-p5j]

The debris field splatter(if I can call it that) moves forward as expected. You would have to freeze the video to see it, but there are numerous still captures that show it. Kennedy had an entrance wound in the back of his head as evidenced by the X-Rays. The front of his head is a massive exit wound which created a flap of scalp skin. Keep in mind that the vehicle is moving at 11 mph into a wind gusting 15-20 mph which blew the bloody mist behind them and created a situation where the motorcycle driver drove into the resulting bloody debris field. Kennedy’s violent backward and to the left motion is the result of neuromuscular spasms from the result of having his brains blown out. He was also wearing a very tight back brace that day which caused his movements to be confusing. To the naked eye, and the poor quality of the Zapruder film, it does appear that the shot came from the front, but there’s more going on here than just the eye test

Something is immediately clear to any sane person looking at those Zapruder frames of the official Z313 last shot all through Thompson's claim of an additional shot at Z328; and, it is this: you can't shoot JFK from anywhere along the Grassy Knoll fence locations without killing Jackie too. Ballistics teams have recreated exact reconstructions of the assassination, w/ JFK and Jackie positioned precisely as seen in the Zapruder film, w/ snipers positioned from every possible vantage point along that Grassy Knoll fence, and Jackie is fatally struck too, every time. Thompson, by the way, dismisses all of the hard forensics which prove Oswald shot JFK from his 6th story perch: the X-Rays and photographs refute any claim for either a shot from the front or the side emanating from any Grassy Knoll location. The bullet fragments he cites, damage to the windshield, and fragments recovered from the front seat floor area ALL support Oswald's shot from the rear.

Given that Kennedy's head was rotated to the left a few degrees at the time of the head shot, it would be impossible for a fragment from the occipital area to be blown forward of the limo, and very difficult for it to be blown to the left of the limo and onto the grass of the Dealey Plaza infield. In sum, the weight of the evidence shows the Harper fragment to be parietal bone, providing no evidence for the back of Kennedy's head being blown out.

@@randyharris3175 yeah, that's what Thompson also states. In another presentation he lays out pretty well, why that then looks like a forward movement of JFK, which actually is an artefact of Zapruder's shaking. Anyway, the film has so much chain of custody issues that it's not clear, if one can really rely on it as genuine as we see it today.

4:07 Describe what it was like to see the Zapruder film for the first time. “Blew my mind.” Damn lol.

Somebody's head DID first move forward. I saw it. It looked like the top of his forehead blew off. Now I don't know what to believe. The first is his head forward and him moving forward. I wonder what. First shot moved him forward, the rest "back and to the left." I saw the first shot. Moved him reaction forward. He looked like he was throwing up but of course it was the death shot. His brain was coming out as he leaned forward. I'm guessing multiple bullets. First from behind. Then others from the other direction. He was already brain shot when he leaned forward. The later shots came from his front. "Back and to the left" is real but the first killer shot drove him forward. Don't think it was one shooter. Try five or ten. And probably people positioned halfway to Parkland. "He's wounded. Hospital. We're next."

Definitely 2 shooters very last shot split second after before shot was clearly from front right. In very slow motion on zap film clearly shows his head an shoulders fall back an to left an you can see blood an matter flying backwards an onto the trunk. 2nd shot split second before last was shot from back that he briefly leaned forward before awful last shot.

At the top of the comments check out what I wrote there was a total of "6" shooters.. "Johnny Roselli" when Kennedy's limousine slowed down to almost a dead stop he shot Kennedy in the head from the Sewer-Drain..with an XP-100 the gun was made by Remington..224 Caliber how to 10 inch barrel and a scope on it.. the passenger and Kennedy's limousine he was CIA he said to the driver that Johnny just shot Kennedy in the head with a handgun and never said a word to anybody..With all the shotters Kennedy was hit three times and Governor Connally was hit three times the back of the limousine had six holes in it..The CIA they were walking all over the place picking up bullets putting it up in their pockets hiding the evidence.. if you watch the video you will see that there is a boiled whole right through the front of the windshield..

Frame by frame stop an go or slow motion the zapruder film last 2 shots. While jfk holding his throat you see him briefly leaned forward. That was the shot to his upper back which can be seen in a autopsy photo a second later he falls back hard to his left that was the last awfull exploding bullet from right front side.

@@davidwilliams4498 The shots came from the front that's why there was a Bullet hole in the windshield..Six Shooters total Kennedy was basically surrounded when the limousine slowed down that was the kill shot using a Mercury filled bullet on impact they explode..In 1963 the company that made them bullets were in Texas..Once they got their hands on the Zapruder film they caught out the suction to avoid seeing the smoke from the killshot..All this information was known in 1963..Everybody was shooting but Lee Harvey Oswald..Look up "Billy Seymour" & "John Liggett" as far as their involvement also..And Tippit & Oswald.. they were best friends they had breakfast on the morning of the assassination..They interviewed about 30 people at the diner that can verify they were both sitting together.. The windshield was taken out of Kennedy's limo and destroyed and replaced with a new one in the back of the limousine there was about 6 bullet holes Johnson said I hate that color blue they did the Bodywork and painted it the car black..

"Don't think it was one shooter. Try five or ten".: You acknowledged the rear hit and, presumably, the-elephant-in-the room skull pieces above his head flying up and forward like little missiles - from that big hole in the top right part of his head. There was a lack of any other bullet holes in his head. When you mentioned the part about "try 5 or 10", suddenly you started sounding really really....oh what's the word...?
