Although new to this forum I have been researching JFK for some time now.
After experience in similar/other forums I was hesitant to join because I
despise fallacy arguments, mostly gaslighting, but also any that steer
conversation away from polite debate toward trading insults. However I
enjoy it and look forward to it.

I'm not on the fence with my opinion and I don't think it matters much
what I think when I say that I'm disgusted with the WC's inquiry. Because
it wasn't a trial with a defense team and jury, they had a responsibility
to investigate different theories, examine any/all evidence, and consider
as much witness testimony as they could.

This is not to say that I don't think it's likely that Oswald in some way
(also irrelevant). By appearances it seems that Oswald was convicted,that
if the WC found him responsible, it must be true. However that's not due
process. Since he had no one to stand up for and defend him in an official
capacity, and that none was even allowed, makes me most suspicious. That
evidence evidence was held from public view for so long (and still is)
increases my suspicions (and anger). The possibility for a valid inquiry
has long since passed because most witnesses have died and evidence has
gotten lost, stolen, and destroyed.... Just sayin' :-)

Amy, there is still a lot of evidence in the ARRB files. The
testimonies of many there have answered many of the questions from the
case.


Here's some info on whether a lawyer was assigned to work on behalf of
Oswald:

“In fairness to the alleged assassin and his family, the
Commission on February 25, 1964, requested Walter E. Craig, president of
the American Bar Association, to participate in the investigation and to
advise the Commission whether in his opinion the proceedings conformed to
the basic principles of American justice. Mr. Craig accepted this
assignment and participated fully and without limitation. He attended
Commission hearings in person or through his appointed assistants. All
working papers, reports, and other data in Commission files were made
available, and Mr. Craig and his associates were given the opportunity to
cross-examine witnesses, to recall any witness heard prior to his
appointment, and to suggest witnesses whose testimony they would like to
have the Commission hear. This procedure was agreeable to counsel for
Oswald’s widow.”

And:

"No one who has read the 888 pages of the Report can have any doubt about
the role played by Walter E. Craig: His name does not even appear in the
index, nor does it appear in the extended index contained in the 15th
volume of the 26 volumes of Hearings and Exhibits. One does find an
occasional reference to the presence of an “observer”
representing Craig, but none of these “observers” ever
poses a question which might illuminate a point in Oswald’s
favor."

Chris - thanks for responding and for posting the information.

I've been (slowly) reading the WC reports as well as any others, but not
in a particular order. Even if I was convinced that Oswald had murdered
JFK alone and with malice, I'd still feel the same way. Per the
paragraphs you quoted, the "request" for the president of the bar to
participate in the investigation on Oswald's behalf and seemingly as his
attorney - that he did nothing makes it worse. I'm flabbergasted!

PS. Do you by chance know if there was a lawsuit or attempt at one in
regards to Oswald being killed while under the protection of the DPD?

Sadly the DPD did a good imitation of the Keystone Cops. To their credit
some DPD wanted to secretly move LHO without the press being there. From
what I read the Mayor screwed up that plan. As for proximate cause sue
Jack Ruby and the Mafia. That should be interesting.

Close enough for a WC defender. It was also the need to SHOW the press
that Oswald wasn't being mistreated that caused the problem. They were
used to the copy beating a confession out of a suspect.

Up until the point they let Ruby whack Oswald, they had done a very
respectable job. The even used restraint when arresting Oswald when they
had every legal justification to blow him away. Allowing Ruby the chance
to kill Oswald was a bad blunder. <snicker>

I was 4 days shy of my 12th birthday when it happened. I cheered when it
was announced that Oswald had died. I haven't stopped cheering since.

I disagree with the "respectable job" part but do agree with their having
much restraint in not shooting Oswald just prior to his arrest. Oswald's
actions at that time made it justifiable IMO and considering what they
"wanted" him for, it's surprising that it didn't happen. I think he knew
they were searching for him (specifically) and that's why he had left home
with a gun and why he led into the arresting officer with a punch.

Of course he knew they were searching for him. He knew they would quickly
figure out he was the prime suspect in the assassination because he was
the assassin. That's why he shot and killed the first cop to stop and
question him. That's why he tried to kill the arresting officer. I can't
pretend to know what Oswald had in mind but my guess is that when the
lights in the movie theater came on and he saw the cops converging on him
he had to know it was over. Pulling the gun on the cops might very well
have been his way of committing suicide by cop. He seemed intent on taking
as many with him as he could. He only managed to take one.

Chris - thanks for responding and for posting the information.
I've been (slowly) reading the WC reports as well as any others, but not
in a particular order. Even if I was convinced that Oswald had murdered
JFK alone and with malice, I'd still feel the same way. Per the
paragraphs you quoted, the "request" for the president of the bar to
participate in the investigation on Oswald's behalf and seemingly as his
attorney - that he did nothing makes it worse. I'm flabbergasted!
PS. Do you by chance know if there was a lawsuit or attempt at one in
regards to Oswald being killed while under the protection of the DPD?
~Amy
Sadly the DPD did a good imitation of the Keystone Cops. To their credit
some DPD wanted to secretly move LHO without the press being there. From
what I read the Mayor screwed up that plan. As for proximate cause sue
Jack Ruby and the Mafia. That should be interesting.
Up until the point they let Ruby whack Oswald, they had done a very
respectable job. The even used restraint when arresting Oswald when they
had every legal justification to blow him away. Allowing Ruby the chance
to kill Oswald was a bad blunder. <snicker>
I disagree with the "respectable job" part but do agree with their having
much restraint in not shooting Oswald just prior to his arrest. Oswald's
actions at that time made it justifiable IMO and considering what they
"wanted" him for, it's surprising that it didn't happen. I think he knew
they were searching for him (specifically) and that's why he had left home
with a gun and why he led into the arresting officer with a punch.
Of course he knew they were searching for him. He knew they would quickly
figure out he was the prime suspect in the assassination because he was
the assassin.
He didn't have to be the killer and could still be concerned because
they were searching the TSBD and would find his rifle soon. So he would
be a suspect no matter what. Did he get his gun just for protection, or
did he get it to intimidate someone he was going to see on his walk across
town? He was heading in the direction of Jack Ruby's apartment, but we
can't be sure that was his destination, since he never got there.

That's why he shot and killed the first cop to stop and
question him. That's why he tried to kill the arresting officer.
WRONG! We have no proof that he tried to kill the arresting officer in
the theater. The cop said his grab for the revolver got his skin wedged
in between the hammer and the firing pin. But for all we know the cop was
making himself look good for a promotion. Oswald had shown no interest in
shooting anyone back when he got the MC rifle, and from then on.
Post by bigdog
I can't
pretend to know what Oswald had in mind but my guess is that when the
lights in the movie theater came on and he saw the cops converging on him
he had to know it was over. Pulling the gun on the cops might very well
have been his way of committing suicide by cop. He seemed intent on taking
as many with him as he could. He only managed to take one.
So now you're reading the mind of a long dead person. Give it up.
You haven't a clue what Oswald was thinking at that time.

After experience in similar/other forums I was hesitant to join because I

I'm not on the fence with my opinion and I don't think it matters much
what I think when I say that I'm disgusted with the WC's inquiry. Because
it wasn't a trial with a defense team and jury, they had a responsibility
to investigate different theories, examine any/all evidence, and consider
as much witness testimony as they could.
This is not to say that I don't think it's likely that Oswald in some way
(also irrelevant). By appearances it seems that Oswald was convicted,that
if the WC found him responsible, it must be true. However that's not due
process. Since he had no one to stand up for and defend him in an official
capacity, and that none was even allowed, makes me most suspicious. That
evidence evidence was held from public view for so long (and still is)
increases my suspicions (and anger). The possibility for a valid inquiry
has long since passed because most witnesses have died and evidence has
gotten lost, stolen, and destroyed.... Just sayin' :-)
Amy, there is still a lot of evidence in the ARRB files. The
testimonies of many there have answered many of the questions from the
case.
Here's some info on whether a lawyer was assigned to work on behalf of
“In fairness to the alleged assassin and his family, the
Commission on February 25, 1964, requested Walter E. Craig, president of
the American Bar Association, to participate in the investigation and to
advise the Commission whether in his opinion the proceedings conformed to

Right. That's what most people would do if they thought they were going to
be falsely accused of a crime. Grab a gun and kill the first cop they
encounter.

Your poor reading comprehension is on full display here. I prefaced by
remarks by saying, "I can't pretend to know what Oswald had in mind". Did
you steal a page from Marsh's playbook and only skim over the remarks
before making your knee jerk response to them?

to investigate different theories, examine any/all evidence, and consider
as much witness testimony as they could.
This is not to say that I don't think it's likely that Oswald in some way
(also irrelevant). By appearances it seems that Oswald was convicted,that
if the WC found him responsible, it must be true. However that's not due
process. Since he had no one to stand up for and defend him in an official
capacity, and that none was even allowed, makes me most suspicious. That
evidence evidence was held from public view for so long (and still is)
increases my suspicions (and anger). The possibility for a valid inquiry
has long since passed because most witnesses have died and evidence has
gotten lost, stolen, and destroyed.... Just sayin' :-)
Amy, there is still a lot of evidence in the ARRB files. The
testimonies of many there have answered many of the questions from the
case.
Here's some info on whether a lawyer was assigned to work on behalf of
“In fairness to the alleged assassin and his family, the
Commission on February 25, 1964, requested Walter E. Craig, president of
the American Bar Association, to participate in the investigation and to
advise the Commission whether in his opinion the proceedings conformed to
the basic principles of American justice. Mr. Craig accepted this
assignment and participated fully and without limitation. He attended
Commission hearings in person or through his appointed assistants. All
working papers, reports, and other data in Commission files were made
available, and Mr. Craig and his associates were given the opportunity to
cross-examine witnesses, to recall any witness heard prior to his
appointment, and to suggest witnesses whose testimony they would like to
have the Commission hear. This procedure was agreeable to counsel for
Oswald’s widow.”
"No one who has read the 888 pages of the Report can have any doubt about
the role played by Walter E. Craig: His name does not even appear in the
index, nor does it appear in the extended index contained in the 15th
volume of the 26 volumes of Hearings and Exhibits. One does find an
occasional reference to the presence of an “observer”
representing Craig, but none of these “observers” ever
poses a question which might illuminate a point in Oswald’s
favor."

Chris - thanks for responding and for posting the information.
I've been (slowly) reading the WC reports as well as any others, but not
in a particular order. Even if I was convinced that Oswald had murdered
JFK alone and with malice, I'd still feel the same way. Per the
paragraphs you quoted, the "request" for the president of the bar to
participate in the investigation on Oswald's behalf and seemingly as his
attorney - that he did nothing makes it worse. I'm flabbergasted!
PS. Do you by chance know if there was a lawsuit or attempt at one in
regards to Oswald being killed while under the protection of the DPD?
~Amy
Sadly the DPD did a good imitation of the Keystone Cops. To their credit
some DPD wanted to secretly move LHO without the press being there. From
what I read the Mayor screwed up that plan. As for proximate cause sue
Jack Ruby and the Mafia. That should be interesting.
Up until the point they let Ruby whack Oswald, they had done a very
respectable job. The even used restraint when arresting Oswald when they
had every legal justification to blow him away. Allowing Ruby the chance
to kill Oswald was a bad blunder. <snicker>
I disagree with the "respectable job" part but do agree with their having
much restraint in not shooting Oswald just prior to his arrest. Oswald's
actions at that time made it justifiable IMO and considering what they
"wanted" him for, it's surprising that it didn't happen. I think he knew
they were searching for him (specifically) and that's why he had left home
with a gun and why he led into the arresting officer with a punch.
Post by bigdog
I was 4 days shy of my 12th birthday when it happened. I cheered when it
was announced that Oswald had died. I haven't stopped cheering since.
Yes, he was pretty disturbed at that point. He had been set up and
figured it out after the shooting. He left the TSBD (I believe) because
he had realized he was the 'goat' to be for the whole thing, and I believe
he was headed to someone's place to speak about it with them. Another
reason to take a gun, the other person was probably Jack Ruby, whose
apartment was in the direction that Oswald had begun to travel walking.

Don't fall for his Crap. Mark Lane was hired by Oswald's mother to act
as his advocate before the WC and they rejected him.

Amy, I don't know about that, but someone will probably chime in with the
info. You will find mostly 2 types of folks here. First are the CTs, CT
= 'Conspiracy Theorists', and the LNs, LN = 'Lone Nut' believers, in
the 'lone nut' theory of Oswald acting alone. And between them a range of
folks that go a little this way, and a little that way. Some will even
try to convince you they know all sorts of things, including me. That's
not necessarily true though. Research something you heard but aren't sure
of. Get opposing opinions before settling on what you think.

My belief is that the ARRB files have many of the answers in the case,
but for some strange reason many here try to avoid those. I fall somewhat
into the CT side, but like many CTs I believe I have a number of the
answers.

WRONG! In many other forums the ARRB info is used often, and

there.

And BTW, Horne did not put 'spin' on anything. He has told it like it
was stated to him by witnesses. I checked and know it's so. You wouldn't
know it though, having ben in far of Horne and the ARRB, 2 things that
prove your time for years was wasted on theories in the WCR.

attorney - that he did nothing makes it worse. I'm flabbergasted!
PS. Do you by chance know if there was a lawsuit or attempt at one in
regards to Oswald being killed while under the protection of the DPD?

Amy, I don't know about that, but someone will probably chime in with the
info. You will find mostly 2 types of folks here. First are the CTs, CT
= 'Conspiracy Theorists', and the LNs, LN = 'Lone Nut' believers, in
the 'lone nut' theory of Oswald acting alone. And between them a range of
folks that go a little this way, and a little that way. Some will even
try to convince you they know all sorts of things, including me. That's
not necessarily true though. Research something you heard but aren't sure
of. Get opposing opinions before settling on what you think.
My belief is that the ARRB files have many of the answers in the case,
but for some strange reason many here try to avoid those. I fall somewhat
into the CT side, but like many CTs I believe I have a number of the
answers.
The ARRB "answers" have been around for over 20 years and it was a whole
lot of nothing much to the dismay of CTs everywhere. A few refusing to
accept the nothingness tried to make something out of nothing. People like
Doug Horne and the gullible people who bought his books and believed what
was in them. In reality all Horne did was put a new spin on David Lifton's
absurd body altering theory from decades earlier.
Strange that you act like Horne and Lifton were lying. Lifton was
working from evidence he found, and he was also adding his own deductions
to that. Horne went much further by using evidence that he himself, as a
member of the ARRB, collected and heard. He dealt ONLY with evidence, and
yet you try to besmirch his reputation with your small little insults.
The body altering happened, and there were witnesses, yet you still try to
fool yourself and others into not believing it, so your years of belief in
the WCR can be pure.

You talk about "gullibility" but forget that you exhibit the same by
holding the WCR so close to your heart.

WRONG! In many other forums the ARRB info is used often, and
appreciated. This is a negative LN forum in the majority, so no one dares use
the ARRB data, and tries to denigrate it. Too much proof of conspiracy
there.
And BTW, Horne did not put 'spin' on anything. He has told it like it
was stated to him by witnesses. I checked and know it's so. You wouldn't
know it though, having been in fear of Horne and the ARRB, 2 things that
prove your time for years was wasted on theories in the WCR.
I stated quite a while ago that I do this for amusement only and nobody
provides more amusement than you. Thank you.
Actually, I never believed that excuse. I think you come here to
pretend that you know more than anyone else, and to take shots at some
people when you think you're justified in such actions.

Chris, that is good advice. I do try to do that although I will say that
I'm not afraid to change what I think (maybe it is more that I haven't
really settled on much more than a few things like - the WC investigation
was a joke, that Oswald was never given a fair shake at least while alive,
the head shot didn't come from the TSBD or behind the car, and some
witnesses were at the least coerced).

Amy, not sure what you question relates to. Usually we leave the
previous conversation in the post, so that we can see what came before.

At a guess, you might be asking why I think the kill shot came from
the front. It's because in one of the 'leaked' photos that wasn't
deleted, there is a bullet hole in the right forehead of the body of JFK.
It is over the right eye, and by following a path straight through the
head, it caused a blow out at the rear or BOH of JFK. This is much more
in keeping with the general rule that a rifle bullet goes in a small
entry, and comes out a large exit. It explains many things.

To view the bullet hole in the forehead, get the 'stare-of-death'
photo and ENLARGE it and look at the right forehead/temple area and just
under the hair hanging down, you'll see the bullet hole. It will have a
fleshy rim, which is common for a fresh bullet entry only hours old. The
bullet entry matches on found in "Gunshot Wounds" by Vincent DiMaio, and
expert in the field, see figure 4.16. Here's an example of the photo to
be ENLARGED:

https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/e8/db/db/e8dbdb83da587af5c8d2450fa574908f.jpg


In the whole case you will see frequent efforts to maintain the 'lone
nut' scenario, which allows the plotters to get away and go on with their
lives without looking over their shoulders. It was critical that the
fiction be maintained that there was only a 'lone nut'. That's why the
effort to make the bullet entry be at the BOH, so that they could blame a
rifle bullet from above and behind from the TSBD.

I'll show you something interesting. One of the 'leaked' photos of
the autopsy is called the 'stare-of-death' photo and if you look at the
photo and ENLARGE it, then look under the hair hanging down on the right
forehead, then tell me what you see there. Here's a copy of the photo:

Chris, I did read about a photograph that showed a bullet hole. It looks
to be about an inch above the right eye..is that what you mean? I can see
it plainly. Is there also a small black rectangle or square just to the
left and below the hole, that is perhaps a manipulation of the photo? I
believe that what can't be seen is also a problem - no large, exploding
exit wound toward the front-left side (as depicted in the Z film).

That should be it above the right eye. Tom Robinson the mortician
stated it was about a 1/4 inch in diameter. The only reason it got
through the editing process of deleting and altering the 'leaked' photos
was because it wasn't seen. And yes, there is no doubt that another of
the 'leaked' photos that showed the BOH was altered. It showed the BOH
with absolutely NO damage at all. Definite alteration on that one.

An interesting sight is this drawing by Ida Dox of an autopsy photo of
the BOH. It shows a bullet hole clearly in the BOH near the top of the
ruler:

Loading Image...

Note how clearly the bullet hole stands out. Then look at the photo
she was copying:

Loading Image...

Note that the bullet hole has disappeared! There is a bit of a red
spot there, but Humes himself stated that the red spot was nothing, maybe
a blood spot.

So you can see the fakery that has gone on over the course of the
evidence. The Ida Dox drawings were used at one point and shown to
medical panels with the excuse that the real photos the Kennedy family
didn't want folks to see, so they made the drawings as close as possible
to the photos. Of course, they directed her to ad in the bullet hole,
since they were pushing the idea of a bullet entry in the BOH.

And yes, the BOH in that photo is completely phony, because the 'large
hole' was there seen by over 39 witnesses. There is a list here in the
index of the 39 witnesses, with the names of the witness, what they said,
and the link to the context.

The "black rectangle" to the left of the bullet hole does have a n odd
appearance, but I think it may just be wet hair hanging down. There was a
flap of skull that stuck out a bit forward of the right ear, but I believe
that as made when the body arrived at Bethesda.


Just a note. Most things I will tell you will sound new or maybe
different from what you may have heard, but I can back most of it up with
official records or statements elsewhere by the witnesses in the case.
Just ask.

Chris, I'm having a LOT of trouble following the discussion in this forum.
Just for example, at one point I thought a question was posed at me
(paraphrase), "what do you base your opinion on". I responded with a
question of my own, "Which part [of my opinion]"?. But now I'm not sure if
it was to me or even who it was that asked it. I realize that I haven't
been showing most of the quote(s) that were relative to my response but
that's actually because I thought it would actually be easier for others,
lol. Honestly, I'm just short of lost, but I appreciate your lengthy and
well explained responses (which I have understood). You were right that
as far as the autopsy pictures and the explanations are concerned, that
it's new to me. I saw some of the videos you but didn't do research into
the documentation, etc.

Oh yeah, regarding the autopsy: I said that I thought it was illegal and
perhaps in response to that or someone else' statement, it was said that
there wasn't anything illegal about the autopsy. If I followed correctly,
you agreed with that. That's very curious to me because I can't understand
how it cannot be. If it's a law that the autopsy take place in Texas (the
state of the crime), how can it not be illegal to take the body out of the
state and perform the autopsy elsewhere? Considering how the results and
statements regarding the state of the body differed between Parkland
Hospital staff and the final version of the autopsy report, that seems to
me as extremely important.

Amy, it is easier to follow the conversation by leaving the previous
conversation in the post, so that you can go back to see who said what.
If you're using Google groups, it will help you know who is talking with
the list of names at the top of the post. it shows the names in order last
(most recent) to first.

If you're using one of the newsreaders, then I'm not much help with
those. Let me know.

I agree that the autopsy was "illegal" in that they did it in the wrong
venue after stealing the body. But it was done badly also. Humes and
Boswell were Bethesda pathologists, but had little experience in working
real pathology cases. Humes called in Pierre Finck, who was an expert in
pathology and Wound Ballistics. He arrived at 8:30 pm after the scheduled
autopsy had begun.

The difference you noted in the Parkland body and the Bethesda body is
heightened by this article which contains both sides of the problem.
Here's the BOH at Parkland:

http://www.paulseaton.com/jfk/boh/parkland_boh/parkland_wound.htm

and the same after arriving at Bethesda:

http://www.paulseaton.com/jfk/boh/beth/beth.htm

At this stage, there is little that can be done about the breaking of
the law in stealing the limo an the body.

If questions on what we've covered so far, let me know...:)

through the editing process of deleting and altering the 'leaked' photos
was because it wasn't seen. And yes, there is no doubt that another of
the 'leaked' photos that showed the BOH was altered. It showed the BOH
with absolutely NO damage at all. Definite alteration on that one.
An interesting sight is this drawing by Ida Dox of an autopsy photo of
the BOH. It shows a bullet hole clearly in the BOH near the top of the
https://stevengoddard.files.wordpress.com/2013/08/screenhunter_07-aug-20-19-45.jpg
Note how clearly the bullet hole stands out. Then look at the photo
http://i318.photobucket.com/albums/mm433/JFKAUTOPSYPHOTOS/JFKcolor_boh_autopsy_photo.jpg
Note that the bullet hole has disappeared! There is a bit of a red
spot there, but Humes himself stated that the red spot was nothing, maybe
a blood spot.
So you can see the fakery that has gone on over the course of the
evidence. The Ida Dox drawings were used at one point and shown to
medical panels with the excuse that the real photos the Kennedy family
didn't want folks to see, so they made the drawings as close as possible
to the photos. Of course, they directed her to ad in the bullet hole,
since they were pushing the idea of a bullet entry in the BOH.
And yes, the BOH in that photo is completely phony, because the 'large
hole' was there seen by over 39 witnesses. There is a list here in the
index of the 39 witnesses, with the names of the witness, what they said,
and the link to the context.
The "black rectangle" to the left of the bullet hole does have a n odd
appearance, but I think it may just be wet hair hanging down. There was a
flap of skull that stuck out a bit forward of the right ear, but I believe
that as made when the body arrived at Bethesda.
Just a note. Most things I will tell you will sound new or maybe
different from what you may have heard, but I can back most of it up with
official records or statements elsewhere by the witnesses in the case.
Just ask.

Chris, I'm having a LOT of trouble following the discussion in this forum.
Just for example, at one point I thought a question was posed at me
(paraphrase), "what do you base your opinion on". I responded with a
question of my own, "Which part [of my opinion]"?. But now I'm not sure if
it was to me or even who it was that asked it. I realize that I haven't
been showing most of the quote(s) that were relative to my response but
that's actually because I thought it would actually be easier for others,
lol. Honestly, I'm just short of lost, but I appreciate your lengthy and
well explained responses (which I have understood). You were right that
as far as the autopsy pictures and the explanations are concerned, that
it's new to me. I saw some of the videos you but didn't do research into
the documentation, etc.
Oh yeah, regarding the autopsy: I said that I thought it was illegal and
perhaps in response to that or someone else' statement, it was said that
there wasn't anything illegal about the autopsy. If I followed correctly,
you agreed with that. That's very curious to me because I can't understand
how it cannot be. If it's a law that the autopsy take place in Texas (the
state of the crime), how can it not be illegal to take the body out of the
state and perform the autopsy elsewhere? Considering how the results and
statements regarding the state of the body differed between Parkland
Hospital staff and the final version of the autopsy report, that seems to
me as extremely important.
Amy, it is easier to follow the conversation by leaving the previous
conversation in the post, so that you can go back to see who said what.
If you're using Google groups, it will help you know who is talking with
the list of names at the top of the post. it shows the names in order last
(most recent) to first.
If you're using one of the newsreaders, then I'm not much help with
those. Let me know.
I agree that the autopsy was "illegal" in that they did it in the wrong
venue after stealing the body. But it was done badly also. Humes and
Boswell were Bethesda pathologists, but had little experience in working
real pathology cases. Humes called in Pierre Finck, who was an expert in
pathology and Wound Ballistics. He arrived at 8:30 pm after the scheduled
autopsy had begun.
The difference you noted in the Parkland body and the Bethesda body is
heightened by this article which contains both sides of the problem.
http://www.paulseaton.com/jfk/boh/parkland_boh/parkland_wound.htm
http://www.paulseaton.com/jfk/boh/beth/beth.htm
At this stage, there is little that can be done about the breaking of
the law in stealing the limo an the body.
Agreed, nothing that can be done about the body taken. I wanted to satisfy
my opinion that it was not only taken illegally, but also that the
reasoning behind it was suspicious and that there was opportunity to
manipulate the results in some way. That the limo was also taken at the
same time and cleaned, etc., pretty much cinches for me that there is
exceptional reasons for not trusting the AR. If Oswald had made it to
trial, I think his defense would have made the same point (if not have
gotten the autopsy evidence thrown out completely).

Chris, I did read about a photograph that showed a bullet hole. It looks
to be about an inch above the right eye..is that what you mean? I can see

That is called Netiquette which the WC defenders lack. The other word to
remember is RETENTION. Some places will retain messages for 30 years or
more. Other may only be able to retain messages for a few months.

Not sure what you mean.
Are you saying that YOU are smart enough to be able to see a bullet hole
in this photo?

The WC defenders can not. If you are able to see that bullet hole that
makes you a conspiracy kook.

I don't know what you want to see on the front-left side. Some of us can
see a flap sticking out which is a skull bone still attached to the
scalp. What Lifton called the Devil's Ear.

Amy, I don't know about that, but someone will probably chime in with the
info. You will find mostly 2 types of folks here. First are the CTs, CT
= 'Conspiracy Theorists', and the LNs, LN = 'Lone Nut' believers, in
the 'lone nut' theory of Oswald acting alone. And between them a range of
folks that go a little this way, and a little that way. Some will even
try to convince you they know all sorts of things, including me. That's
not necessarily true though. Research something you heard but aren't sure
of. Get opposing opinions before settling on what you think.
Chris, that is good advice. I do try to do that although I will say that
I'm not afraid to change what I think (maybe it is more that I haven't
really settled on much more than a few things like - the WC investigation
was a joke, that Oswald was never given a fair shake at least while alive,
the head shot didn't come from the TSBD or behind the car, and some
witnesses were at the least coerced).
Post by mainframetech
My belief is that the ARRB files have many of the answers in the case,
but for some strange reason many here try to avoid those. I fall somewhat
into the CT side, but like many CTs I believe I have a number of the
answers.
I'm long from considering everything but have discarded some.
I'll show you something interesting. One of the 'leaked' photos of
the autopsy is called the 'stare-of-death' photo and if you look at the
photo and ENLARGE it, then look under the hair hanging down on the right

Although new to this forum I have been researching JFK for some time now.
After experience in similar/other forums I was hesitant to join because I
despise fallacy arguments, mostly gaslighting, but also any that steer
conversation away from polite debate toward trading insults. However I
enjoy it and look forward to it.
I'm not on the fence with my opinion and I don't think it matters much
what I think when I say that I'm disgusted with the WC's inquiry. Because
it wasn't a trial with a defense team and jury, they had a responsibility
to investigate different theories, examine any/all evidence, and consider
as much witness testimony as they could.
This is not to say that I don't think it's likely that Oswald in some way
(also irrelevant). By appearances it seems that Oswald was convicted,that
if the WC found him responsible, it must be true. However that's not due
process. Since he had no one to stand up for and defend him in an official
capacity, and that none was even allowed, makes me most suspicious. That
evidence evidence was held from public view for so long (and still is)
increases my suspicions (and anger). The possibility for a valid inquiry
has long since passed because most witnesses have died and evidence has
gotten lost, stolen, and destroyed.... Just sayin' :-)
Amy, there is still a lot of evidence in the ARRB files. The
testimonies of many there have answered many of the questions from the
case.
Here's some info on whether a lawyer was assigned to work on behalf of
“In fairness to the alleged assassin and his family, the
Commission on February 25, 1964, requested Walter E. Craig, president of
the American Bar Association, to participate in the investigation and to
advise the Commission whether in his opinion the proceedings conformed to
the basic principles of American justice. Mr. Craig accepted this
assignment and participated fully and without limitation. He attended
Commission hearings in person or through his appointed assistants. All
working papers, reports, and other data in Commission files were made
available, and Mr. Craig and his associates were given the opportunity to
cross-examine witnesses, to recall any witness heard prior to his
appointment, and to suggest witnesses whose testimony they would like to
have the Commission hear. This procedure was agreeable to counsel for
Oswald’s widow.”
"No one who has read the 888 pages of the Report can have any doubt about
the role played by Walter E. Craig: His name does not even appear in the
index, nor does it appear in the extended index contained in the 15th
volume of the 26 volumes of Hearings and Exhibits. One does find an
occasional reference to the presence of an “observer”
representing Craig, but none of these “observers” ever
poses a question which might illuminate a point in Oswald’s
favor."

Chris - thanks for responding and for posting the information.
I've been (slowly) reading the WC reports as well as any others, but not
in a particular order. Even if I was convinced that Oswald had murdered
JFK alone and with malice, I'd still feel the same way. Per the
paragraphs you quoted, the "request" for the president of the bar to
participate in the investigation on Oswald's behalf and seemingly as his
attorney - that he did nothing makes it worse. I'm flabbergasted!
Just what was he supposed to do. It's not as if there was a jury to be
hoodwinked the way the OJ jury was. Oswald was guilty as hell and the
evidence of that was overwhelming.
Post by Amy Joyce
PS. Do you by chance know if there was a lawsuit or attempt at one in
regards to Oswald being killed while under the protection of the DPD?
If there was, I would hope the jury would find Oswald's life was worth a
plug nickel. Trebled would make it 15 cents.

The jury in the London mock trial had no trouble convicting Oswald on that
"thin" evidence and that was without Brennan testifying which illustrates
what I have said numerous times in the past. The case against Oswald
didn't need Brennan's ID. He would have been easily convicted even if
Brennan had never looked up at the sniper's nest.

The evidence was thin to vanishing, and I've seen your list of evidence
and that's a fact. And though there wasn't a jury to be hoodwinked, there
was a public to be hoodwinked and many were, by the WC.
The jury in the London mock trial had no trouble convicting Oswald on that
"thin" evidence and that was without Brennan testifying which illustrates
what I have said numerous times in the past. The case against Oswald
didn't need Brennan's ID. He would have been easily convicted even if
Brennan had never looked up at the sniper's nest.
As you've been reminded, the jury then did not have all the information
that is available to us now. Same for the medical panels.

PS. Do you by chance know if there was a lawsuit or attempt at one in
regards to Oswald being killed while under the protection of the DPD?
If there was, I would hope the jury would find Oswald's life was worth a
plug nickel. Trebled would make it 15 cents.
Such anger at a semi-innocent man! You should control those outbursts,
it's bad for your arteries.
Semi-innocent??? Is that like being a little bit pregnant. Too much.
Think it through. He had some knowledge of the shooters, but wasn't
one himself. He never had any intention of shooting anyone.

Although new to this forum I have been researching JFK for some time now.
After experience in similar/other forums I was hesitant to join because I
despise fallacy arguments, mostly gaslighting, but also any that steer
conversation away from polite debate toward trading insults. However I
enjoy it and look forward to it.
I'm not on the fence with my opinion and I don't think it matters much
what I think when I say that I'm disgusted with the WC's inquiry. Because
it wasn't a trial with a defense team and jury, they had a responsibility
to investigate different theories, examine any/all evidence, and consider
as much witness testimony as they could.
This is not to say that I don't think it's likely that Oswald in some way
(also irrelevant). By appearances it seems that Oswald was convicted,that
if the WC found him responsible, it must be true. However that's not due
process. Since he had no one to stand up for and defend him in an official
capacity, and that none was even allowed, makes me most suspicious. That
evidence evidence was held from public view for so long (and still is)
increases my suspicions (and anger). The possibility for a valid inquiry
has long since passed because most witnesses have died and evidence has
gotten lost, stolen, and destroyed.... Just sayin' :-)
Amy, there is still a lot of evidence in the ARRB files. The
testimonies of many there have answered many of the questions from the
case.
Here's some info on whether a lawyer was assigned to work on behalf of
“In fairness to the alleged assassin and his family, the
Commission on February 25, 1964, requested Walter E. Craig, president of
the American Bar Association, to participate in the investigation and to
advise the Commission whether in his opinion the proceedings conformed to
the basic principles of American justice. Mr. Craig accepted this
assignment and participated fully and without limitation. He attended
Commission hearings in person or through his appointed assistants. All
working papers, reports, and other data in Commission files were made
available, and Mr. Craig and his associates were given the opportunity to
cross-examine witnesses, to recall any witness heard prior to his
appointment, and to suggest witnesses whose testimony they would like to
have the Commission hear. This procedure was agreeable to counsel for
Oswald’s widow.”
"No one who has read the 888 pages of the Report can have any doubt about
the role played by Walter E. Craig: His name does not even appear in the
index, nor does it appear in the extended index contained in the 15th
volume of the 26 volumes of Hearings and Exhibits. One does find an
occasional reference to the presence of an “observer”
representing Craig, but none of these “observers” ever
poses a question which might illuminate a point in Oswald’s
favor."

Chris - thanks for responding and for posting the information.
I've been (slowly) reading the WC reports as well as any others, but not
in a particular order. Even if I was convinced that Oswald had murdered
JFK alone and with malice, I'd still feel the same way. Per the
paragraphs you quoted, the "request" for the president of the bar to
participate in the investigation on Oswald's behalf and seemingly as his
attorney - that he did nothing makes it worse. I'm flabbergasted!
Just what was he supposed to do. It's not as if there was a jury to be
hoodwinked the way the OJ jury was. Oswald was guilty as hell and the
evidence of that was overwhelming.

Bigdog, Seriously?

Why have a "defense" there if he wasn't going to doing anything but watch
(sometimes)? He should have done his job or something that resembled a
job. The world was Oswald's jury and it became deadlocked despite the WC
presenting a one sided show. Of course the evidence appears to point
overwhelmingly at guilt when only the "DA" presents its case.

Unless the WC was manipulating evidence against Oswald there wouldn't be
anything for him to object to. It's not like a criminal trial in which a
lawyer who is defending a guilty client will still try to cast doubt on
the evidence being presented by the prosecution. His goal is to create
reasonable doubt in the minds of the jurors. That's what criminal defense
lawyers do. The lawyer at the fact finding body would have a much
different role. His job would not be to get a guilty man acquitted. His
role was simply to guard against bogus evidence being presented against
Oswald. Apparently there was nothing being presented that he found
objectionable.

Due process is something that is given to a defendant in a criminal or
civil proceeding. The WC was not a trial, it was a fact finding body. Due
process is a requirement that must be given to the accused before the
government may deprive him/her of life, liberty, or property. Since the
government couldn't deprive Oswald of any of those things, they had no
obligation to afford him due process. Had they found evidence that someone
other than Oswald was involved that person or persons would be entitled to
due process, assuming they were still alive.

I think they should have questioned, listened to, and considered witnesses
that were close enough to see anything or had anything of relevance to
offer. For example: the Newman's, Officers Jackson and Chaney, Marie
Muchmore, the Railroad Employess etc. etc., -all. Seems that they only
RE-questioned people that had already given statements to the FBI or DPD,
because they knew they were going to give corroborating evidence to the
one theory they wanted to prove. That isn't an investigation, it's the
presentation of one side of facts - as they see it. That it may have
"conflicted with other evidence" is exactly why they should be questioned
and contemplated. It otherwise appears biased. Why question anyone again
if that's the case?

Although new to this forum I have been researching JFK for some time now.
After experience in similar/other forums I was hesitant to join because I
despise fallacy arguments, mostly gaslighting, but also any that steer
conversation away from polite debate toward trading insults. However I
enjoy it and look forward to it.
I'm not on the fence with my opinion and I don't think it matters much
what I think when I say that I'm disgusted with the WC's inquiry. Because
it wasn't a trial with a defense team and jury, they had a responsibility
to investigate different theories, examine any/all evidence, and consider
as much witness testimony as they could.
The WC did consider other theories and found them to be completely lacking
in evidence. All the available evidence pointed to Oswald and only Oswald.
Much of the investigation was done by the staff lawyers, not the seven
commissioners and to a man they all said they were eager to find evidence
of a conspiracy but there just wasn't any. They did consider the available
witness statements and found some to be not credible because it conflicted
with other known evidence. Do you think they should have accepted
eyewitness accounts that were erroneous?
I think they should have questioned, listened to, and considered witnesses
that were close enough to see anything or had anything of relevance to
offer. For example: the Newman's, Officers Jackson and Chaney, Marie
Muchmore, the Railroad Employess etc. etc., -all. Seems that they only
RE-questioned people that had already given statements to the FBI or DPD,
because they knew they were going to give corroborating evidence to the
one theory they wanted to prove. That isn't an investigation, it's the
presentation of one side of facts - as they see it. That it may have
"conflicted with other evidence" is exactly why they should be questioned
and contemplated. It otherwise appears biased. Why question anyone again
if that's the case?
The WC made judgement calls as to which witnesses they believed offered
enough information that it was worth calling them to testify under oath.
To do that they reviewed statements, affidavits, etc. of numerous
witnesses. Even those that didn't testify were included in the 26 volumes
of supporting data.

This is not to say that I don't think it's likely that Oswald in some way
(also irrelevant). By appearances it seems that Oswald was convicted,that
if the WC found him responsible, it must be true. However that's not due
process.
Due process is something that is given to a defendant in a criminal or
civil proceeding. The WC was not a trial, it was a fact finding body. Due
process is a requirement that must be given to the accused before the
government may deprive him/her of life, liberty, or property. Since the
government couldn't deprive Oswald of any of those things, they had no
obligation to afford him due process. Had they found evidence that someone
other than Oswald was involved that person or persons would be entitled to
due process, assuming they were still alive.

bullets, but many wounds, so they devised the 'single bullet' theory

Although new to this forum I have been researching JFK for some time now.
After experience in similar/other forums I was hesitant to join because I
despise fallacy arguments, mostly gaslighting, but also any that steer
conversation away from polite debate toward trading insults. However I
enjoy it and look forward to it.
I'm not on the fence with my opinion and I don't think it matters much
what I think when I say that I'm disgusted with the WC's inquiry. Because
it wasn't a trial with a defense team and jury, they had a responsibility
to investigate different theories, examine any/all evidence, and consider
as much witness testimony as they could.
The WC did consider other theories and found them to be completely lacking
in evidence. All the available evidence pointed to Oswald and only Oswald.
Much of the investigation was done by the staff lawyers, not the seven
commissioners and to a man they all said they were eager to find evidence
of a conspiracy but there just wasn't any. They did consider the available
witness statements and found some to be not credible because it conflicted
with other known evidence. Do you think they should have accepted
eyewitness accounts that were erroneous?
I think they should have questioned, listened to, and considered witnesses
that were close enough to see anything or had anything of relevance to
offer. For example: the Newman's, Officers Jackson and Chaney, Marie
Muchmore, the Railroad Employess etc. etc., -all. Seems that they only
RE-questioned people that had already given statements to the FBI or DPD,
because they knew they were going to give corroborating evidence to the
one theory they wanted to prove. That isn't an investigation, it's the
presentation of one side of facts - as they see it. That it may have
"conflicted with other evidence" is exactly why they should be questioned
and contemplated. It otherwise appears biased. Why question anyone again
if that's the case?
The WC made judgement calls as to which witnesses they believed offered
enough information that it was worth calling them to testify under oath.
To do that they reviewed statements, affidavits, etc. of numerous
witnesses. Even those that didn't testify were included in the 26 volumes
of supporting data.
WRONG! Now we have your opinion, but the fact is that the FBI didn't
present witnesses to the WC if they showed info that suggested conspiracy.
Nonsense. The people who were called to testify before the Commision were
the ones it was believed could offer useful information. Those judgements
were based on preliminary statements those people had already made.
Records of all those statements are included in the 26 volumes of
exhibits. It would have made no sense whatsoever to call every person who
had been in Dealey Plaza to testify.

And the lawyers for the WC also did all that they could to make it a crime
possible to be executed by a single 'lone nut' killer.
It was a crime that could be executed by a single 'lone nut' killer.
Nothing complicated about it. Stick a rifle out a window and shoot the
POTUS. Why would that require more than one man?
Post by mainframetech
They had 3
bullets, but many wounds, so they devised the 'single bullet' theory
(SBT), that allowed one bullet to hit 2 men 7 times including 2 bone
strikes and it came away looking almost like new. Fortunately, that
theory has been disproved, though you won't admit it.
The bullet was powerful enough to easily penetrated through two men. You
continue to repeat the myth that the bullet emerged looking almost new.
That is pure nonsense. You have disproven nothing regarding the SBT. All
you have done is continue to repeat your own bullshit.

This is not to say that I don't think it's likely that Oswald in some way
(also irrelevant). By appearances it seems that Oswald was convicted,that
if the WC found him responsible, it must be true. However that's not due
process.
Due process is something that is given to a defendant in a criminal or
civil proceeding. The WC was not a trial, it was a fact finding body. Due
process is a requirement that must be given to the accused before the
government may deprive him/her of life, liberty, or property. Since the
government couldn't deprive Oswald of any of those things, they had no
obligation to afford him due process. Had they found evidence that someone
other than Oswald was involved that person or persons would be entitled to
due process, assuming they were still alive.
Post by Amy Joyce
Since he had no one to stand up for and defend him in an official
capacity, and that none was even allowed, makes me most suspicious. That
evidence evidence was held from public view for so long (and still is)
increases my suspicions (and anger). The possibility for a valid inquiry
has long since passed because most witnesses have died and evidence has
gotten lost, stolen, and destroyed.... Just sayin' :-)
The case has been investigated an reinvestigated to the point the
assassination is the most investigated crime in human history. For over 50
years conspiracy hobbyists have been trying to find credible evidence that
someone other than Oswald took part in the crime. They have found nothing
yet they continue on their never ending snipe hunt.
Much changed after the WC. If there ever was a real trial, it's
questionable that illegally obtained evidence (such as the autopsy),
There was nothing illegal about the autopsy.
While true, there was nothing right about the final Autopsy Report
(AR).
Because you say so.
Post by mainframetech
The conclusions reached DURING the autopsy were not what Humes put
into his AR.
No conclusions were reached during the autopsy. It would be pretty silly
to reach conclusions before all the facts were known. That is something
conspiracy hobbyists do.

have been allowed. Testimony from Parkland doctors, which was inconsistent
with WC conclusions, would have had to suffice.
Can you cite an attorney who shares that view?
Post by Amy Joyce
Speaking of the autopsy,
the preliminary autopsy report indicated that the first bullet striking
JFK had struck his back and lodged in his shoulder;
Simply not true. You seem to have gotten a lot of bad information from
kook websites.
Post by Amy Joyce
that the throat injury
was caused by the head shot bullet deflecting,
More crap.
Post by Amy Joyce
eventually traveling
throughout and exiting the throat (apparently to answer questions of a
bullet coming from the front). How could it be so wrong twice? Obviously
this didn't coincide with the film that doctors didn't yet know about.
Autopsy findings appeared easier to change up to 3 times rather than
admitting that there wasn't conclusive evidence to find that all shots
came from one location.
The autopsy team produced ONE report at the conclusion of the autopsy
which all three pathologists signed. During the autopsy a number of ideas
were explored and some were rejected as more information was gathered.
Their conclusions were written in their report which was written after
they obtained all the pertinent data including information obtained from
the staff at Parkland.
WRONG! The prosectors came to conclusions early in the autopsy that
"There's NO EXIT" from the body for the back wound bullet.
Thank you for demonstrating what I just said about conspiracy hobbyists
being silly enough to reach conclusions before they had all the facts.
Post by mainframetech
As the autopsy
progressed, they saw the PROOF of that conclusion when the organs were
removed and they could see the PROOF where the bullet had stopped at the
pleura and left bruising there, but NO path through ANY tissue. The back
wound was only about an inch deep before the pleura. As one autopsy team
member put it, it was a 'short shot', which sometimes happens with a
bullet when the powder is bad, or some other reason causes it to lose the
energy it originally should have had.
It's real simple. We have two technicians who claimed years later that
that the bullet stopped at the pleura and we have the pathologists who all
signed a report that said the bullet exited and the opinions of teams of
the most highly respected medical examiners in the country who reviewed
the photos and x-rays who concurred that the bullet had exited. So which
of those conclusions do you think should carry the more weight.
Post by mainframetech
Post by bigdog
The original autopsy was reviewed by a number of panels consisting of some
of the most respected medical examiners in the country and while they
found fault with some of the methodology, they all concurred with the
fundamental conclusion that JFK had been shot twice from behind. You won't
find a single qualified medical examiner who has reviewed the evidence who
disputes that finding. Only kooks think they can look at a few photos and
come to better conclusions than the professionals who saw far more photos
and x-rays than were ever leaked to the public.
Many of the photos and X-rays were missing and that is the statements
of the X-ray Technician that tool ALL X-rays, and photographers that were
forced to sign off that all photos were present, when they knew that many
were missing.
The review panels saw photos and x-rays which established that the bullet
had exited. That opinion is unanimous. You have never been able to cite a
single qualified medical examiner who has disputed that finding. All you
have are the opinions of people who are completely unqualified to make
such judgements. The technicians. Doug Horne. Yourself.
Post by mainframetech
The medical panels that were asked to examine the evidence came out
with the same conclusions that you can read in the AR. Ondce thety read
the false AR, there were no photos or X-rays left that could show them the
truth.
They based their conclusions on what they did see and what they saw was
more than enough to convince them that the bullet had exited. They saw the
trail of tissue damage from the back wound to exit in the throat. They saw
that the trachea had been struck by a bullet. All they had to do was
connect the dots. Simple stuff for medical examiners. They do that sort of
thing all the time.
Post by mainframetech
Except the 'stare-of-death' photo that was missed by the panels.
What is your evidence that they missed it? Oh yeah. They didn't see what
you saw even though they had a much higher quality version of that photo
than you did. But you think your judgement should supercede theirs. That's
laughable.
Post by mainframetech
That photo shows the forehead bullet hole that came in from the front.
It was hard to se though, and they missed it.
It shows no such thing. You have imagined that because you desperately
want to believe that.
Post by mainframetech
If the panels had seen the internal organs as the autopsy team members
had seen, and if they had the ability to hear the statements and sworn
testimony of the men of Bethesda, they would have ruled differently.
The prosectors saw all that and concluded that the bullet exited. The review
panels saw the photos and x-rays of the same and concurred.
Post by mainframetech
They were misled and chose the easy path to agree with the AR. All the
above can be shown with cites and links on request.
We are supposed to believe they were misled because their conclusions
didn't agree with yours. You never fail to amuse us.
Don't be stupid again. You know very well that a list of evidence has
been shown to prove that the conclusions of the prosectors were used, and
those of the autopsy team, ALL who saw the PROOF that the bullet never
left the body of JFK. you just hate to se your beloved WCR get smeared in
the dirt.

leading from the back wound to the incision in the throat. The review

bullet coming from the front). How could it be so wrong twice? Obviously
this didn't coincide with the film that doctors didn't yet know about.
Autopsy findings appeared easier to change up to 3 times rather than
admitting that there wasn't conclusive evidence to find that all shots
came from one location.
The autopsy team produced ONE report at the conclusion of the autopsy
which all three pathologists signed. During the autopsy a number of ideas
were explored and some were rejected as more information was gathered.
Their conclusions were written in their report which was written after
they obtained all the pertinent data including information obtained from
the staff at Parkland.
WRONG! The prosectors came to conclusions early in the autopsy that
"There's NO EXIT" from the body for the back wound bullet. As the autopsy
progressed, they saw the PROOF of that conclusion when the organs were
removed and they could see the PROOF where the bullet had stopped at the
pleura and left bruising there, but NO path through ANY tissue. The back
wound was only about an inch deep before the pleura. As one autopsy team
member put it, it was a 'short shot', which sometimes happens with a
bullet when the powder is bad, or some other reason causes it to lose the
energy it originally should have had.

The original autopsy was reviewed by a number of panels consisting of some
of the most respected medical examiners in the country and while they
found fault with some of the methodology, they all concurred with the
fundamental conclusion that JFK had been shot twice from behind. You won't
find a single qualified medical examiner who has reviewed the evidence who
disputes that finding. Only kooks think they can look at a few photos and
come to better conclusions than the professionals who saw far more photos
and x-rays than were ever leaked to the public.
Many of the photos and X-rays were missing and that is the statements
of the X-ray Technician that tool ALL X-rays, and photographers that were
forced to sign off that all photos were present, when they knew that many
were missing.
The medical panels that were asked to examine the evidence came out
with the same conclusions that you can read in the AR. Ondce thety read
the false AR, there were no photos or X-rays left that could show them the
truth. Except the 'stare-of-death' photo that was missed by the panels.
That photo shows the forehead bullet hole that came in from the front.
It was hard to se though, and they missed it.
If the panels had seen the internal organs as the autopsy team members
had seen, and if they had the ability to hear the statements and sworn
testimony of the men of Bethesda, they would have ruled differently.
Whom do you mean? The HSCA's FPP interviewed Humes and Boswell.

Although new to this forum I have been researching JFK for some time now.
After experience in similar/other forums I was hesitant to join because I
despise fallacy arguments, mostly gaslighting, but also any that steer
conversation away from polite debate toward trading insults. However I
enjoy it and look forward to it.
I'm not on the fence with my opinion and I don't think it matters much
what I think when I say that I'm disgusted with the WC's inquiry. Because
it wasn't a trial with a defense team and jury, they had a responsibility
to investigate different theories, examine any/all evidence, and consider
as much witness testimony as they could.
The WC did consider other theories and found them to be completely lacking
in evidence. All the available evidence pointed to Oswald and only Oswald.
Much of the investigation was done by the staff lawyers, not the seven
commissioners and to a man they all said they were eager to find evidence
of a conspiracy but there just wasn't any. They did consider the available
witness statements and found some to be not credible because it conflicted
with other known evidence. Do you think they should have accepted
eyewitness accounts that were erroneous?
I think they should have questioned, listened to, and considered witnesses
that were close enough to see anything or had anything of relevance to
offer. For example: the Newman's, Officers Jackson and Chaney, Marie
Muchmore, the Railroad Employess etc. etc., -all. Seems that they only
RE-questioned people that had already given statements to the FBI or DPD,
because they knew they were going to give corroborating evidence to the
one theory they wanted to prove. That isn't an investigation, it's the
presentation of one side of facts - as they see it. That it may have
"conflicted with other evidence" is exactly why they should be questioned
and contemplated. It otherwise appears biased. Why question anyone again
if that's the case?
You're right of course. And fitting in with that, the FBI also would
change witness statements to fit the 'lone nut' theory when the witness
had said something that showed conspiracy. The following video is of 3
witnesses that had the FBI turn their words into something other than what
they said:



If you look up the FBI reports on those 3, you'll see how they changed
their statements. As well, they rewrote the statement of a woman named
Carolyn Arnold, who saw Oswald in the TSBD 2nd floor lunchroom at about
12:15pm. They actually rewrote it twice. And although they said one of
the version was signed by ?Arnold, I doubt it. No one is shown those FBI
reports, they go in to FBI headquarters and are filed there. Carolyn
Arnold would never have known they misquoted her except that a reporter
had looked up the info and asked her a question about her statement, and
she found out in 1978. At that time she gave her correct statement to the
paper through the reporter, and later the same to another reporter.

This is not to say that I don't think it's likely that Oswald in some way
(also irrelevant). By appearances it seems that Oswald was convicted,that
if the WC found him responsible, it must be true. However that's not due
process.
Due process is something that is given to a defendant in a criminal or
civil proceeding. The WC was not a trial, it was a fact finding body. Due
process is a requirement that must be given to the accused before the
government may deprive him/her of life, liberty, or property. Since the
government couldn't deprive Oswald of any of those things, they had no
obligation to afford him due process. Had they found evidence that someone
other than Oswald was involved that person or persons would be entitled to
due process, assuming they were still alive.

Since he had no one to stand up for and defend him in an official
capacity, and that none was even allowed, makes me most suspicious. That
evidence evidence was held from public view for so long (and still is)
increases my suspicions (and anger). The possibility for a valid inquiry
has long since passed because most witnesses have died and evidence has
gotten lost, stolen, and destroyed.... Just sayin' :-)
The case has been investigated an reinvestigated to the point the
assassination is the most investigated crime in human history. For over 50
years conspiracy hobbyists have been trying to find credible evidence that
someone other than Oswald took part in the crime. They have found nothing
yet they continue on their never ending snipe hunt.
Much changed after the WC. If there ever was a real trial, it's
questionable that illegally obtained evidence (such as the autopsy), would
have been allowed. Testimony from Parkland doctors, which was inconsistent
with WC conclusions, would have had to suffice. Speaking of the autopsy,
the preliminary autopsy report indicated that the first bullet striking
JFK had struck his back and lodged in his shoulder; that the throat injury
was caused by the head shot bullet deflecting, eventually traveling

Amy, the ARRB files contain the sworn testimony of many of the
Bethesda Navy men that were present at the autopsy. The findings they
concluded DURING the autopsy were very different from the findings that
Dr. Humes wrote up at home in his Autopsy Report (AR). It was stated by
another member of the autopsy team what had really happened with the back
wound bullet, and also that ALL 3 prosectors saw the proof of it, yet
Humes wrote it up after the autopsy completely differently than what he

taken the initiative himself to lie in the AR.

It was the most important case they eve had to work on, and Hoover was

Yes, and Hoover was adamant about 3 shots 3 hits and thought Specter was
a moron. He was also sure that Castro had hired Oswald to kill the
President.

Yes, it would seem so, but those times were odd when you consider that
when Hoover came out with the scenario of the 'lone nut' his word was
listened to and followed religiously or heads would roll. The FBI did all
kinds of things that supported the 'lone nut' scenario, and avoided any
talk or evidence of conspiracy. The evidence I showed in the video of 3
people was just one of many instances of the FBI doing all kinds of
illegal things. Another example is that of the statement of Acquilla
Clemons, who witnesses part of the Tippit shooting. At the end of her
statement she noted that she was intimidated to shut up or she would get
hurt and it was the police that did it to her. She wasn't sure which
police, but the only ones that were following up later on witnesses was
the FBI. Here's the video:



While I agree with you as to the scruples of Mark Lane, I believe when
listening and watching the witnesses he presented that they were being
honest to the best of their ability. What most of them said fit with many
other items of evidence in the case.

I'm interested, and also curious about what you said to me in another
topic (can't find it easily). You said that as a CT you think that you
determined how some of it went down. It's cool if you don't want to tell
more, or if you feel more comfortable messaging me, that's fine with

I can point to many statements and sworn testimony backing that up if
you're interested.

I'm interested, and also curious about what you said to me in another
topic (can't find it easily). You said that as a CT you think that you
determined how some of it went down. It's cool if you don't want to tell
more, or if you feel more comfortable messaging me, that's fine with
me.
~Amy
I'll be happy to show you all that I've dug up so far. But I'm not
sure now which point I was making. You deleted the previous conversation
and I've lost my thread of thought. Better to let the previous discussion
stay in the post, s that we can look back at what has been said.

I'll start with one of the areas of question. The 'single bullet'
theory in the WCR. I'll do it here, and you can then see the opposing
views that almost certainly will be posted after.

As noted previously, when the autopsy got going, 2 FBI agents were
there in attendance as observers. They recorded what they saw and heard
in their reports, which are online as the 'Sibert and O'Neill report'.
At one point they rolled the body over and found a bullet wound in the
upper back. Many people have been told and still believe that it wasn't
the 'upper back' but the lower neck. They found that there were too many
wounds on people and elsewhere to be caused by the 3 shells in the TSBD
6th floor 'nest'. So the WC lawyers devised a theory that would allow one
bullet to do more damage and so cover the problem that way. That became
the single bullet' theory, and consisted of the bullet that hit the upper
back of JFK was to be sent out of his body through the throat wound and
then hit Connally and injure him. That is 7 strikes on 2 men including 2
bone strikes. The bullet they picked to have done all that damage was the
so-called 'pristine' or 'magic' bullet, which was seemingly hardly
damaged.

During the autopsy, Sibert was one of the FBI observers, and had given
sworn testimony to the ARRB of what he saw and heard:

"But when they raised him up, then they
found this back wound. And that’s when they
started probing with the rubber glove and the
finger, and - and also with the chrome probe.
And that’s just before, of course, I made
this call, because they were at a loss to explain
what had happened to this bullet. They couldn’t
find any bullet.
And they said, ‘There's no exit.” Finck,
in particular, said, "There’s no exit.” And they
said that you could feel it with the end of the
finger - I mean, the depth of this wound."

From: http://aarclibrary.org/publib/jfk/arrb/medical_testimony/pdf/Sibert_9-11-97.pdf
Page 111

I'll always end a quote with a link to where the info came from, so you
can check context.

The 'prosectors' (pathologists) were Drs. Humes (in charge supposedly),
Boswell and Finck who was called in by Humes who knew that he and Boswell
didn't have the experience for this kind of autopsy with bullet wounds,
and very little experience altogether. Finck had a good reputation and
had done all sorts of autopsies on bullet deaths.

As the autopsy got further along, they reached a point where the organs
were to be removed. At this point, we go to statement made by Paul
O'Connor, Technologist, who assisted at the autopsy. He had stated that
he had assisted at 50-60 autopsies before this one. Here he is speaking:

"We started out with a rigid probe and found that it only went in so far.
I'd say maybe an inch and a quarter. It didn't go any further than that.
So we used a malleable probe and bent it a little bit and found out that
the bullet entered the body, went through the intercostal
muscles—the muscles in between the ribs. The bullet went in
through the muscles, didn't touch any of the ribs, arched downwards, hit
the back of the pleural cavity, which encases the lungs, both front and
back. It bounced off that cavity and stopped. It actually went down and
stopped. Went through the ribs and stopped (photo 10). So we didn't know
the track of the bullet until we eviscerated the body later. That's what
happened at that time. We traced the bullet path down and found out it
didn't traverse the body. It did not go in one side and come out the other
side of the body.
Law: You can be reasonably sure of that?
O'Connor: Absolutely.
Law: It was just from the probe then?
O'Connor: Oh yes.
Law: And these doctors knew that?
O'Connor: Absolutely.
Law: While it happened?
O'Connor: Absolutely."

From: "In the Eyes of History" by William Matson Law, pages 40-41
https://www.krusch.com/books/kennedy/In_The_Eye_Of_History.pdf

That book is online and can be searched. The author used an
interviewer style that just asked questions, without a lot of his own
thoughts included.

So the autopsy ends, with no further discussion or conclusions made,
and Humes goes home ands writes up an Autopsy Report (AR) that is
completely opposite to what he has just seen. Though he knows the bullet
never left the body of JFK, he writes that it did, and that it came out of
the throat wound! But he doesn't say in the AR that they dissected the
path of the bullet, because there WAS no path after the pleura!

To write such a completely false AR, Humes had to have been given
orders by a higher up, and probably an excuse as to why he had to do it
that way. The report is then signed off by the other 2 prosectors, who
also had to have been given orders. They would never have taken the
initiative to fake the AR on their own on such an important document.


Now, since the back wound bullet never left the body of JFK and came
out the throat wound, the 'single bullet' theory is dead. And if the SBT
is dead, then there are too many shots for the 3 shells in the TSBD, and
there had to be another weapon and another shooter, and therefore a
conspiracy.

But that leaves you with a question of where did the bullet go if it
didn't leave the body of JFK. That's for the next installment. For now,
if any questions on this part of the case, let me know. Then we can move
on.

You really need to drop this nonsense.

The fact that a wound cannot be probed does *not* suggest the bullet
did not transit.

From Volume Seven of the HSCA:

(430) The panel believes that the difficulty which Drs. Humes, Finck,
and Boswell experienced in trying to place a soft probe through the
bullet pathway in President Kennedy’s neck probably resulted from
their failure or inability to manipulate this portion of the body into
the same position it was in when the missile penetrated. Rigor mortis
may have hindered this manipulation. Such placement would have enabled
reconstruction of the relationships of the neck and shoulder when the
missile struck. It is customary, however, to dissect missile tracks to
determine damage and pathway. Probing a track blindly may produce
false tracks and misinformation.

There was a path, with the bullet abrading the tip of the right lung,
and the strap muscles.

And the bullet exited the throat.

John, you need to not call all information from official files or from
witness statements 'nonsense'. I appreciate your opinions, but you're
wrong on this one. The quotes from the technologist at the autopsy were
made by William Matson Law, who got the quotes by asking questions and
recording the answers. The data you see above are the words right from
the autopsy team member's mouth without change or spin by the author.
Primary source as you would have it. The same for the statements of
Sibert, who was sworn in and recorded by the ARRB, an official body.

And your statement about the probe is correct. A probe stopping in a
wound does NOT prove the wound is shallow. That's why I presented the
other information of what they saw when they removed the organs. There
was NO path to be seen except for the inch or so of the back wound to the
pleura. Read the Autopsy Report (AR) and you will see that they had no
dissection of any path from the back wound, since there wasn't any, as per
the technologists report.

determine damage and pathway. Probing a track blindly may produce
false tracks and misinformation.
Notice that although the HSCA is no good for this particular case,
they say that "It is customary, however, to dissect missile tracks", and
yet the track for this particular wound was not done. See the AR for
proof of that. At the time of the HSCA, and the many medical panels that
were given the opportunity to look over the limited data of photos and
X-rays, No one was given the opportunity to look inside the body except
the autopsy team, and no one was able to see the sworn testimony of the
Bethesda enlisted Navy men, or ask them anything, which the ARRB was able
to do.

Further, which I didn't think was necessary to show before, but now
feel it is indeed important in light of your comments, is the statement
from an interview of James Jenkins describing his experience of looking
into the body cavity from the front after organs were removed just as they
were probing the back wound. The probe was striking the pleura tissue and
there was NO path through it as Jenkins looked on:

"Jim Jenkins recalled a very shallow back wound in JFK's upper posterior
thorax, that did not transit the body. He recalled Dr. Humes sticking his
finger in the wound, and seeing Dr. Humes' finger making an indentation in
the intact pleura as he viewed Humes' probing from the other side, where
the right lung would have been before its removal. The pleura was intact.
Jenkins also recalled seeing a bruise at the top of the middle lobe of the
right lung (but not at the top, or apex of the right lung)."

From: http://insidethearrb.livejournal.com/10811.html


Now I know that last is not from a primary source, but it is from the
other Technologist present at the autopsy and agrees with the previous
information.

Because it was proved that the back wound bullet did NOT exit from the
body of JFK, the 'single bullet' theory is dead. Therefore the throat
wound was from the front as a few of the Parkland doctors had stated. It
will make a hole in the collar just as well.
Post by John McAdams
But you think the autopsists were lying about that, right?
And you think the autopsy x-rays were faked, right?
The conclusions of the prosectors DURING the autopsy were that the back
wound bullet did NOT exit the body of JFK (why is another discussion with
proof). They ALL saw the proof when the organs were removed, yet though
he saw the proof, Humes went home with no further discussion and wrote up
an AR that was completely different than what he had seen. He could never
have taken that initiative on his own, so that he had to have been given
orders to write it the way he did. It was critical to protect the 'lone
nut' theory for protection of the plotters, which is my belief.


I personally can't speak to the X-rays myself, but Jerrol Custer
(X-ray Technician) had said when they were described to him, that many of
the X-rays he took (and he took ALL of them that night) were missing and
some were not what he took. As well, there were a couple of photographers
that stated that they were made to sign off on sets of photos when there
were many missing from them that they knew they took.

The question of where did the back wound bullet go can be answered in a
separate discussion, as can the bullet from the frontal throat wound. I
wouldn't want to hang you up on the whole conspiracy.

I'm interested, and also curious about what you said to me in another
topic (can't find it easily). You said that as a CT you think that you
determined how some of it went down. It's cool if you don't want to tell
more, or if you feel more comfortable messaging me, that's fine with
me.

I'll be happy to show you all that I've dug up so far. But I'm not
sure now which point I was making. You deleted the previous conversation
and I've lost my thread of thought. Better to let the previous discussion
stay in the post, s that we can look back at what has been said.
I'll start with one of the areas of question. The 'single bullet'
theory in the WCR. I'll do it here, and you can then see the opposing
views that almost certainly will be posted after.
As noted previously, when the autopsy got going, 2 FBI agents were
there in attendance as observers. They recorded what they saw and heard
in their reports, which are online as the 'Sibert and O'Neill report'.
At one point they rolled the body over and found a bullet wound in the
upper back. Many people have been told and still believe that it wasn't
the 'upper back' but the lower neck. They found that there were too many
wounds on people and elsewhere to be caused by the 3 shells in the TSBD
6th floor 'nest'. So the WC lawyers devised a theory that would allow one
bullet to do more damage and so cover the problem that way. That became
the single bullet' theory, and consisted of the bullet that hit the upper
back of JFK was to be sent out of his body through the throat wound and
then hit Connally and injure him. That is 7 strikes on 2 men including 2
bone strikes. The bullet they picked to have done all that damage was the
so-called 'pristine' or 'magic' bullet, which was seemingly hardly
damaged.

Strange that the photo you show is different than the one that I showed.
Do you suppose one of them is incorrectly identified as CE399? Here's the
That was CE 399 years later, after they had dug lead out of the base.

During the autopsy, Sibert was one of the FBI observers, and had given
"But when they raised him up, then they
found this back wound. And that’s when they
started probing with the rubber glove and the
finger, and - and also with the chrome probe.
And that’s just before, of course, I made
this call, because they were at a loss to explain
what had happened to this bullet. They couldn’t
find any bullet.
And they said, ‘There's no exit.” Finck,
in particular, said, "There’s no exit.” And they
said that you could feel it with the end of the
finger - I mean, the depth of this wound."
From: http://aarclibrary.org/publib/jfk/arrb/medical_testimony/pdf/Sibert_9-11-97.pdf
Page 111
I'll always end a quote with a link to where the info came from, so you
can check context.
The 'prosectors' (pathologists) were Drs. Humes (in charge supposedly),
Boswell and Finck who was called in by Humes who knew that he and Boswell
didn't have the experience for this kind of autopsy with bullet wounds,
and very little experience altogether. Finck had a good reputation and
had done all sorts of autopsies on bullet deaths.
As the autopsy got further along, they reached a point where the organs
were to be removed. At this point, we go to statement made by Paul
O'Connor, Technologist, who assisted at the autopsy. He had stated that
"We started out with a rigid probe and found that it only went in so far.
I'd say maybe an inch and a quarter. It didn't go any further than that.
So we used a malleable probe and bent it a little bit and found out that
the bullet entered the body, went through the intercostal
muscles—the muscles in between the ribs. The bullet went in
through the muscles, didn't touch any of the ribs, arched downwards, hit
the back of the pleural cavity, which encases the lungs, both front and
back. It bounced off that cavity and stopped. It actually went down and
stopped. Went through the ribs and stopped (photo 10). So we didn't know
the track of the bullet until we eviscerated the body later. That's what
happened at that time. We traced the bullet path down and found out it
didn't traverse the body. It did not go in one side and come out the other
side of the body.
Law: You can be reasonably sure of that?
O'Connor: Absolutely.
Law: It was just from the probe then?
O'Connor: Oh yes.
Law: And these doctors knew that?
O'Connor: Absolutely.
Law: While it happened?
O'Connor: Absolutely."

You really need to drop this nonsense.
The fact that a wound cannot be probed does *not* suggest the bullet
did not transit.
John, you need to not call all information from official files or from
witness statements 'nonsense'. I appreciate your opinions, but you're
wrong on this one. The quotes from the technologist at the autopsy were
made by William Matson Law, who got the quotes by asking questions and
recording the answers. The data you see above are the words right from
the autopsy team member's mouth without change or spin by the author.
Primary source as you would have it. The same for the statements of
Sibert, who was sworn in and recorded by the ARRB, an official body.
And your statement about the probe is correct. A probe stopping in a
wound does NOT prove the wound is shallow. That's why I presented the
other information of what they saw when they removed the organs. There
was NO path to be seen except for the inch or so of the back wound to the
pleura. Read the Autopsy Report (AR) and you will see that they had no
dissection of any path from the back wound, since there wasn't any, as per
the technologists report.
Post by John McAdams
(430) The panel believes that the difficulty which Drs. Humes, Finck,
and Boswell experienced in trying to place a soft probe through the
bullet pathway in President Kennedy’s neck probably resulted from
their failure or inability to manipulate this portion of the body into
the same position it was in when the missile penetrated. Rigor mortis
may have hindered this manipulation. Such placement would have enabled
reconstruction of the relationships of the neck and shoulder when the
missile struck. It is customary, however, to dissect missile tracks to
determine damage and pathway. Probing a track blindly may produce
false tracks and misinformation.
Notice that although the HSCA is no good for this particular case,
they say that "It is customary, however, to dissect missile tracks", and
yet the track for this particular wound was not done. See the AR for
proof of that. At the time of the HSCA, and the many medical panels that
were given the opportunity to look over the limited data of photos and
X-rays, No one was given the opportunity to look inside the body except
the autopsy team, and no one was able to see the sworn testimony of the
Bethesda enlisted Navy men, or ask them anything, which the ARRB was able
to do.
Further, which I didn't think was necessary to show before, but now
feel it is indeed important in light of your comments, is the statement
from an interview of James Jenkins describing his experience of looking
into the body cavity from the front after organs were removed just as they
were probing the back wound. The probe was striking the pleura tissue and
"Jim Jenkins recalled a very shallow back wound in JFK's upper posterior
thorax, that did not transit the body. He recalled Dr. Humes sticking his
finger in the wound, and seeing Dr. Humes' finger making an indentation in
the intact pleura as he viewed Humes' probing from the other side, where
the right lung would have been before its removal. The pleura was intact.
Jenkins also recalled seeing a bruise at the top of the middle lobe of the
right lung (but not at the top, or apex of the right lung)."
From: http://insidethearrb.livejournal.com/10811.html
Now I know that last is not from a primary source, but it is from the
other Technologist present at the autopsy and agrees with the previous
information.

That book is online and can be searched. The author used an
interviewer style that just asked questions, without a lot of his own
thoughts included.
So the autopsy ends, with no further discussion or conclusions made,
and Humes goes home ands writes up an Autopsy Report (AR) that is
completely opposite to what he has just seen. Though he knows the bullet
never left the body of JFK, he writes that it did, and that it came out of
the throat wound! But he doesn't say in the AR that they dissected the
path of the bullet, because there WAS no path after the pleura!
There was a path, with the bullet abrading the tip of the right lung,
and the strap muscles.
And the bullet exited the throat.
http://mcadams.posc.mu.edu/collar.jpg
Because it was proved that the back wound bullet did NOT exit from the
body of JFK, the 'single bullet' theory is dead. Therefore the throat
wound was from the front as a few of the Parkland doctors had stated. It
will make a hole in the collar just as well.
Post by John McAdams
But you think the autopsists were lying about that, right?
And you think the autopsy x-rays were faked, right?
The conclusions of the prosectors DURING the autopsy were that the back
wound bullet did NOT exit the body of JFK (why is another discussion with
proof). They ALL saw the proof when the organs were removed, yet though
he saw the proof, Humes went home with no further discussion and wrote up
an AR that was completely different than what he had seen. He could never
have taken that initiative on his own, so that he had to have been given
orders to write it the way he did. It was critical to protect the 'lone
nut' theory for protection of the plotters, which is my belief.
I personally can't speak to the X-rays myself, but Jerrol Custer
(X-ray Technician) had said when they were described to him, that many of
the X-rays he took (and he took ALL of them that night) were missing and
some were not what he took. As well, there were a couple of photographers
that stated that they were made to sign off on sets of photos when there
were many missing from them that they knew they took.
The question of where did the back wound bullet go can be answered in a
separate discussion, as can the bullet from the frontal throat wound. I
wouldn't want to hang you up on the whole conspiracy.

happened at that time. We traced the bullet path down and found out it
didn't traverse the body. It did not go in one side and come out the other
side of the body.
Law: You can be reasonably sure of that?
O'Connor: Absolutely.
Law: It was just from the probe then?
O'Connor: Oh yes.
Law: And these doctors knew that?
O'Connor: Absolutely.
Law: While it happened?
O'Connor: Absolutely."
From: "In the Eyes of History" by William Matson Law, pages 40-41
https://www.krusch.com/books/kennedy/In_The_Eye_Of_History.pdf
That book is online and can be searched. The author used an
interviewer style that just asked questions, without a lot of his own
thoughts included.
So the autopsy ends, with no further discussion or conclusions made,
and Humes goes home ands writes up an Autopsy Report (AR) that is
completely opposite to what he has just seen. Though he knows the bullet
never left the body of JFK, he writes that it did, and that it came out of
the throat wound! But he doesn't say in the AR that they dissected the
path of the bullet, because there WAS no path after the pleura!
To write such a completely false AR, Humes had to have been given
orders by a higher up, and probably an excuse as to why he had to do it
that way. The report is then signed off by the other 2 prosectors, who
also had to have been given orders. They would never have taken the
initiative to fake the AR on their own on such an important document.
Now, since the back wound bullet never left the body of JFK and came
out the throat wound, the 'single bullet' theory is dead. And if the SBT
is dead, then there are too many shots for the 3 shells in the TSBD, and
there had to be another weapon and another shooter, and therefore a
conspiracy.
But that leaves you with a question of where did the bullet go if it
didn't leave the body of JFK. That's for the next installment. For now,
if any questions on this part of the case, let me know. Then we can move
on.

Then HUmes said ICE BULLET and you have to believe that because you
believe everyhthing that Humes said. You rely on witnesses and liars.
You rely on junk. The comment that started the 'ice bullet' idea came
from James Sibert, FBI agent, who had heard the prosectors say that
"there's NO EXIT" from the body of JFK for the back wound bullet.
Do you *ever* pay attention to counter-arguments?

The autopsists were not aware that the tracheotomy in the throat
obliterated another wound. When Humes found it out, he put two and
two together and inferred that was the exit from the bullet that
entered the back.

You quote all these witnesses saying, in effect, that the wound could
not be probed. That proves nothing. I posted the HSCA on that.

You have *no* witnesses who say a bullet was found in the body.

And you disregard the x-rays, that showed there was no bullet in the
body.

From Chris,

Hard to tell if you're talking to me or Marsh. If it was me, that's
no problem, since I can back up my comments as to the probing, and have
already done so. As to bullets in the body, I clearly agree that no
bullets were left in the body, especially after the clandestine work done
by Humes and Boswell, who were seen at their work by a few people. I also
agree that any legitimate X-rays do not show any bullets.

As to the probing, I've put out clear statements from witnesses to the
internal proof that the bullet from the upper back wound never left the
body of JFK through the throat wound. There are 2 possible ways for that
bullet to be removed from the body, first, the clandestine work seen by
witnesses that Humes and Boswell did, to find bullets in the body, and
second, the possibility that Jerrol Custer SAW the bullet fall from the
body. Here's the relevant sworn testimony from the ARRB files for Jerrol
Custer:

"When I lifted the body up to take films of
the torso, and the lumbar spine, and the pelvis,
this is when a king-size fragment - I’d say -
estimate around three, four sonometers - fell from
the back. And this is when Dr. Finck come over
with a pair of forceps, picked it up, and took -
That’s the last time I ever saw it.
Now, it was big enough -That’s about,
I’d say, an inch and a half. My finger-my small
finger. First joints."

From: http://aarclibrary.org/publib/jfk/arrb/medical_testimony/pdf/Custer_10-28-97.pdf

Page 53

Sonometer = centimeter, and 3-4 centimeters is long enough to be many
types of bullet.


Custer later decided that he wanted to write a book, which puts his
statement in a bit of doubt, but there it is. We know from the internal
proof that the back wound never penetrated more than an inch or so into
the body, because of the removal of the organs showing the resultant
bruise on the pleura and right lung, but NO PATH further beyond that.
The Autopsy Report (AR) even states they didn't dissect any path for that
bullet, and the reason is that there was no path. There is a statement in
the AR that the bullet went out the throat wound and it has NO support
whatsoever. Normally they would dissect the path to be sure of it.

This further information from the statements previously put out by me,
should answer any concerns about probing. One needs only to read them.

A final comment on the HSCA info. They did not see into the body as
the autopsy team did, and they had NO opportunity to review the many
statements of the enlisted men of Bethesda, who were competent for their
specialties. The truth lies there.

I can point to many statements and sworn testimony backing that up if
you're interested.
Chris
I'm interested, and also curious about what you said to me in another
topic (can't find it easily). You said that as a CT you think that you
determined how some of it went down. It's cool if you don't want to tell
more, or if you feel more comfortable messaging me, that's fine with
me.
~Amy
I'll be happy to show you all that I've dug up so far. But I'm not
sure now which point I was making. You deleted the previous conversation
and I've lost my thread of thought. Better to let the previous discussion
stay in the post, s that we can look back at what has been said.
I'll start with one of the areas of question. The 'single bullet'
theory in the WCR. I'll do it here, and you can then see the opposing
views that almost certainly will be posted after.
As noted previously, when the autopsy got going, 2 FBI agents were
there in attendance as observers. They recorded what they saw and heard
in their reports, which are online as the 'Sibert and O'Neill report'.
At one point they rolled the body over and found a bullet wound in the
upper back. Many people have been told and still believe that it wasn't
the 'upper back' but the lower neck. They found that there were too many
wounds on people and elsewhere to be caused by the 3 shells in the TSBD
6th floor 'nest'. So the WC lawyers devised a theory that would allow one
bullet to do more damage and so cover the problem that way. That became
the single bullet' theory, and consisted of the bullet that hit the upper
back of JFK was to be sent out of his body through the throat wound and
then hit Connally and injure him. That is 7 strikes on 2 men including 2
bone strikes. The bullet they picked to have done all that damage was the
so-called 'pristine' or 'magic' bullet, which was seemingly hardly
damaged.
During the autopsy, Sibert was one of the FBI observers, and had given
"But when they raised him up, then they
found this back wound. And that’s when they
started probing with the rubber glove and the
finger, and - and also with the chrome probe.
And that’s just before, of course, I made
this call, because they were at a loss to explain
what had happened to this bullet. They couldn’t
find any bullet.
And they said, ‘There's no exit.” Finck,
in particular, said, "There’s no exit.” And they
said that you could feel it with the end of the
finger - I mean, the depth of this wound."
From: http://aarclibrary.org/publib/jfk/arrb/medical_testimony/pdf/Sibert_9-11-97.pdf
Page 111
I'll always end a quote with a link to where the info came from, so you
can check context.
The 'prosectors' (pathologists) were Drs. Humes (in charge supposedly),
Boswell and Finck who was called in by Humes who knew that he and Boswell
didn't have the experience for this kind of autopsy with bullet wounds,
and very little experience altogether. Finck had a good reputation and
had done all sorts of autopsies on bullet deaths.
As the autopsy got further along, they reached a point where the organs
were to be removed. At this point, we go to statement made by Paul
O'Connor, Technologist, who assisted at the autopsy. He had stated that
"We started out with a rigid probe and found that it only went in so far.
I'd say maybe an inch and a quarter. It didn't go any further than that.
So we used a malleable probe and bent it a little bit and found out that
the bullet entered the body, went through the intercostal
muscles—the muscles in between the ribs. The bullet went in
through the muscles, didn't touch any of the ribs, arched downwards, hit
the back of the pleural cavity, which encases the lungs, both front and
back. It bounced off that cavity and stopped. It actually went down and
stopped. Went through the ribs and stopped (photo 10). So we didn't know
the track of the bullet until we eviscerated the body later. That's what
happened at that time. We traced the bullet path down and found out it
didn't traverse the body. It did not go in one side and come out the other
side of the body.

Chris, this is fascinating and believable (fyi I haven't read any
arguments against it in this forum, yet). It's actually startling for a
few reasons: 1) The gunshot through the back and not exiting is what the
newspapers revealed before the official AR was released. 2) In the same
newspaper was an article that was seemingly written to explain away
"rumors" that there wasn't a shooter from the front. It stated that the
throat wound was an exit wound "deflection" of the shot to the head.
Initial reports seemed to already be getting changed to deter suspicions
and evidence away from a conspiracy (more than 3 shots). That tells me to
be caution if/when more changes occur, as it did. 3) Yes, mistakes can
occur and initial findings corrected as more evidence arises. I can buy
that, but not in a situation like this when the "evidence" comes from
places other than the body. It appears that the final AR was written more
to reflect evidence found at the "scene" of the crime (sniper's nest). An
error, like mistaking that there wasn't an exit wound to a shot in the
back, seems less unlikely to happen by a ME - especially when considering
the multiple explanation(s) offered as to how they came to that
conclusion.

Yep, shes a conspiracy theorist all right. Focusing on all the wrong

It has always been my opinion that the head-shot came from the front. As
for changing my opinion on that - perhaps I could if the AR wasn't
completely different from what witnesses at Parkland hospital saw (and
people closest to JFK at the scene). I'm faced with the choice of
believing the official AR or the latter, which is also what I saw (back
and to the left). Normally I'd have much more faith in the AR, but the
body was taken from the hospital (the lame excuse about why it was moved
doesn't impress me for many reasons, including that they also took other
evidence, like the car, from investigators - and cleaned it. There is
motive and opportunity for the body and/or the AR to be manipulated and
changed.

If that's what you meant by saying that I am "focusing on all the wrong
things", then there is darn good reason too. I'm surprised that others
would put so much stake in the report, considering everything. Again: it's
different from what I saw in the film (back and to the left), different
what witnesses from the scene saw (back, left portion of his head blown
out), and it's different from what Parkland Hospital staff saw (back, left
portion of his head blown out).

I'm interested, and also curious about what you said to me in another
topic (can't find it easily). You said that as a CT you think that you
determined how some of it went down. It's cool if you don't want to tell
more, or if you feel more comfortable messaging me, that's fine with
me.
~Amy
I'll be happy to show you all that I've dug up so far. But I'm not
sure now which point I was making. You deleted the previous conversation
and I've lost my thread of thought. Better to let the previous discussion
stay in the post, s that we can look back at what has been said.
I'll start with one of the areas of question. The 'single bullet'
theory in the WCR. I'll do it here, and you can then see the opposing
views that almost certainly will be posted after.
As noted previously, when the autopsy got going, 2 FBI agents were
there in attendance as observers. They recorded what they saw and heard
in their reports, which are online as the 'Sibert and O'Neill report'.
At one point they rolled the body over and found a bullet wound in the
upper back. Many people have been told and still believe that it wasn't
the 'upper back' but the lower neck. They found that there were too many
wounds on people and elsewhere to be caused by the 3 shells in the TSBD
6th floor 'nest'. So the WC lawyers devised a theory that would allow one
bullet to do more damage and so cover the problem that way. That became
the single bullet' theory, and consisted of the bullet that hit the upper
back of JFK was to be sent out of his body through the throat wound and
then hit Connally and injure him. That is 7 strikes on 2 men including 2
bone strikes. The bullet they picked to have done all that damage was the
so-called 'pristine' or 'magic' bullet, which was seemingly hardly
damaged.
During the autopsy, Sibert was one of the FBI observers, and had given
"But when they raised him up, then they
found this back wound. And that’s when they
started probing with the rubber glove and the
finger, and - and also with the chrome probe.
And that’s just before, of course, I made
this call, because they were at a loss to explain
what had happened to this bullet. They couldn’t
find any bullet.
And they said, ‘There's no exit.” Finck,
in particular, said, "There’s no exit.” And they
said that you could feel it with the end of the
finger - I mean, the depth of this wound."

Page 111
I'll always end a quote with a link to where the info came from, so you
can check context.
The 'prosectors' (pathologists) were Drs. Humes (in charge supposedly),
Boswell and Finck who was called in by Humes who knew that he and Boswell
didn't have the experience for this kind of autopsy with bullet wounds,
and very little experience altogether. Finck had a good reputation and
had done all sorts of autopsies on bullet deaths.
As the autopsy got further along, they reached a point where the organs
were to be removed. At this point, we go to statement made by Paul
O'Connor, Technologist, who assisted at the autopsy. He had stated that
"We started out with a rigid probe and found that it only went in so far.
I'd say maybe an inch and a quarter. It didn't go any further than that.
So we used a malleable probe and bent it a little bit and found out that
the bullet entered the body, went through the intercostal
muscles—the muscles in between the ribs. The bullet went in
through the muscles, didn't touch any of the ribs, arched downwards, hit
the back of the pleural cavity, which encases the lungs, both front and
back. It bounced off that cavity and stopped. It actually went down and
stopped. Went through the ribs and stopped (photo 10). So we didn't know
the track of the bullet until we eviscerated the body later. That's what
happened at that time. We traced the bullet path down and found out it
didn't traverse the body. It did not go in one side and come out the other
side of the body.
Law: You can be reasonably sure of that?
O'Connor: Absolutely.
Law: It was just from the probe then?
O'Connor: Oh yes.
Law: And these doctors knew that?

https://www.krusch.com/books/kennedy/In_The_Eye_Of_History.pdf
That book is online and can be searched. The author used an
interviewer style that just asked questions, without a lot of his own
thoughts included.
So the autopsy ends, with no further discussion or conclusions made,
and Humes goes home ands writes up an Autopsy Report (AR) that is
completely opposite to what he has just seen. Though he knows the bullet
never left the body of JFK, he writes that it did, and that it came out of
the throat wound! But he doesn't say in the AR that they dissected the
path of the bullet, because there WAS no path after the pleura!
To write such a completely false AR, Humes had to have been given
orders by a higher up, and probably an excuse as to why he had to do it
that way. The report is then signed off by the other 2 prosectors, who
also had to have been given orders. They would never have taken the
initiative to fake the AR on their own on such an important document.
Now, since the back wound bullet never left the body of JFK and came
out the throat wound, the 'single bullet' theory is dead. And if the SBT
is dead, then there are too many shots for the 3 shells in the TSBD, and
there had to be another weapon and another shooter, and therefore a
conspiracy.
But that leaves you with a question of where did the bullet go if it
didn't leave the body of JFK. That's for the next installment. For now,
if any questions on this part of the case, let me know. Then we can move
on.

Nonsense. The AR was based on ALL the information that was gathered at the
autopsy including conversations with personnel at Parkland which confirmed
what they already suspected, that there had been an exit wound in the
throat which was obliterated by the tracheostomy incision.

Which shows the flaw and why it was not a complete autopsy report.
It should also contain information from the place where the body was

That book is online and can be searched. The author used an
interviewer style that just asked questions, without a lot of his own
thoughts included.
So the autopsy ends, with no further discussion or conclusions made,
and Humes goes home ands writes up an Autopsy Report (AR) that is
completely opposite to what he has just seen. Though he knows the bullet
never left the body of JFK, he writes that it did, and that it came out of
the throat wound! But he doesn't say in the AR that they dissected the
path of the bullet, because there WAS no path after the pleura!
To write such a completely false AR, Humes had to have been given
orders by a higher up, and probably an excuse as to why he had to do it
that way. The report is then signed off by the other 2 prosectors, who
also had to have been given orders. They would never have taken the
initiative to fake the AR on their own on such an important document.
Now, since the back wound bullet never left the body of JFK and came
out the throat wound, the 'single bullet' theory is dead. And if the SBT
is dead, then there are too many shots for the 3 shells in the TSBD, and
there had to be another weapon and another shooter, and therefore a
conspiracy.
But that leaves you with a question of where did the bullet go if it
didn't leave the body of JFK. That's for the next installment. For now,
if any questions on this part of the case, let me know. Then we can move
on.

Chris, this is fascinating and believable
See, Amy. The thing is that most of us don't respond to obvious bullshit.
So believe all you want. No matter how laughably far it is from reality
and the truth.

(fyi I haven't read any
arguments against it in this forum, yet). It's actually startling for a
few reasons: 1) The gunshot through the back and not exiting is what the
newspapers revealed before the official AR was released. 2) In the same
newspaper was an article that was seemingly written to explain away
"rumors" that there wasn't a shooter from the front. It stated that the
throat wound was an exit wound "deflection" of the shot to the head.
Initial reports seemed to already be getting changed to deter suspicions
and evidence away from a conspiracy (more than 3 shots). That tells me to
be caution if/when more changes occur, as it did. 3) Yes, mistakes can
occur and initial findings corrected as more evidence arises. I can buy
that, but not in a situation like this when the "evidence" comes from
places other than the body. It appears that the final AR was written more
to reflect evidence found at the "scene" of the crime (sniper's nest). An
error, like mistaking that there wasn't an exit wound to a shot in the
back, seems less unlikely to happen by a ME - especially when considering
the multiple explanation(s) offered as to how they came to that
conclusion.

I'm interested, and also curious about what you said to me in another
topic (can't find it easily). You said that as a CT you think that you
determined how some of it went down. It's cool if you don't want to tell
more, or if you feel more comfortable messaging me, that's fine with
me.
~Amy
I'll be happy to show you all that I've dug up so far. But I'm not
sure now which point I was making. You deleted the previous conversation
and I've lost my thread of thought. Better to let the previous discussion
stay in the post, s that we can look back at what has been said.
I'll start with one of the areas of question. The 'single bullet'
theory in the WCR. I'll do it here, and you can then see the opposing
views that almost certainly will be posted after.
As noted previously, when the autopsy got going, 2 FBI agents were
there in attendance as observers. They recorded what they saw and heard
in their reports, which are online as the 'Sibert and O'Neill report'.
At one point they rolled the body over and found a bullet wound in the
upper back. Many people have been told and still believe that it wasn't
the 'upper back' but the lower neck. They found that there were too many
wounds on people and elsewhere to be caused by the 3 shells in the TSBD
6th floor 'nest'. So the WC lawyers devised a theory that would allow one
bullet to do more damage and so cover the problem that way. That became
the single bullet' theory, and consisted of the bullet that hit the upper
back of JFK was to be sent out of his body through the throat wound and
then hit Connally and injure him. That is 7 strikes on 2 men including 2
bone strikes. The bullet they picked to have done all that damage was the
so-called 'pristine' or 'magic' bullet, which was seemingly hardly
damaged.
During the autopsy, Sibert was one of the FBI observers, and had given
"But when they raised him up, then they
found this back wound. And that’s when they
started probing with the rubber glove and the
finger, and - and also with the chrome probe.
And that’s just before, of course, I made
this call, because they were at a loss to explain
what had happened to this bullet. They couldn’t
find any bullet.
And they said, ‘There's no exit.” Finck,
in particular, said, "There’s no exit.” And they
said that you could feel it with the end of the
finger - I mean, the depth of this wound."
From: http://aarclibrary.org/publib/jfk/arrb/medical_testimony/pdf/Sibert_9-11-97.pdf
Page 111
I'll always end a quote with a link to where the info came from, so you
can check context.
The 'prosectors' (pathologists) were Drs. Humes (in charge supposedly),
Boswell and Finck who was called in by Humes who knew that he and Boswell
didn't have the experience for this kind of autopsy with bullet wounds,
and very little experience altogether. Finck had a good reputation and
had done all sorts of autopsies on bullet deaths.
As the autopsy got further along, they reached a point where the organs
were to be removed. At this point, we go to statement made by Paul
O'Connor, Technologist, who assisted at the autopsy. He had stated that
"We started out with a rigid probe and found that it only went in so far.
I'd say maybe an inch and a quarter. It didn't go any further than that.
So we used a malleable probe and bent it a little bit and found out that
the bullet entered the body, went through the intercostal
muscles—the muscles in between the ribs. The bullet went in
through the muscles, didn't touch any of the ribs, arched downwards, hit
the back of the pleural cavity, which encases the lungs, both front and
back. It bounced off that cavity and stopped. It actually went down and
stopped. Went through the ribs and stopped (photo 10). So we didn't know
the track of the bullet until we eviscerated the body later. That's what
happened at that time. We traced the bullet path down and found out it
didn't traverse the body. It did not go in one side and come out the other
side of the body.
Law: You can be reasonably sure of that?
O'Connor: Absolutely.
Law: It was just from the probe then?
O'Connor: Oh yes.
Law: And these doctors knew that?
O'Connor: Absolutely.
Law: While it happened?
O'Connor: Absolutely."

Excellent point.

I don't think that I have discussed this here since you logged on, but I
suspect that the grassy knoll shooter was only there for the insurance
shot. Just as in th assassination of Archduke Ferdinand, where all the
shots from behind missed and the mastermind had to take the shot from the
front.

I think Oswald's rifle jammed and there was a pause of about 5 seconds, so
the grassy knoll shooter thought he had to take the insurance shot.

Although new to this forum I have been researching JFK for some time now.
After experience in similar/other forums I was hesitant to join because I
despise fallacy arguments, mostly gaslighting, but also any that steer
conversation away from polite debate toward trading insults. However I
enjoy it and look forward to it.
I'm not on the fence with my opinion and I don't think it matters much
what I think when I say that I'm disgusted with the WC's inquiry. Because
it wasn't a trial with a defense team and jury, they had a responsibility
to investigate different theories, examine any/all evidence, and consider
as much witness testimony as they could.
This is not to say that I don't think it's likely that Oswald in some way
(also irrelevant). By appearances it seems that Oswald was convicted,that
if the WC found him responsible, it must be true. However that's not due
process. Since he had no one to stand up for and defend him in an official
capacity, and that none was even allowed, makes me most suspicious. That
evidence evidence was held from public view for so long (and still is)
increases my suspicions (and anger). The possibility for a valid inquiry
has long since passed because most witnesses have died and evidence has
gotten lost, stolen, and destroyed.... Just sayin' :-)

military, Lee Harvey Oswald is at the center of a huge number of
conspiracy theories concerning the Kennedy assassination. There are those
who maintain that Oswald was a “fall guy,” meant to
disguise the fact that a powerful organization—maybe the CIA,
maybe the Freemasons, maybe the Teamsters—killed Kennedy. The
narrator is interested in Oswald because of what he reveals about the
