A Forensic Analysis Of The X-Rays of JFK’s Skull Yields Surprising Results
American Thinker ^ | May 22, 2024 | Jerome R. Corsi

Posted on 05/22/2024 4:19:02 PM PDT by grundle

We now know with forensic certainty that two frontal headshots and one shot from the rear at a low angle (not from the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository) killed JFK. The evidence for these conclusions comes from a new book, The Assassination of President John F. Kennedy: The Final Analysis, that I have recently published with Dr. David W. Mantik, who has a Ph.D. in physics and a medical practice extending over five decades as a radiation oncologist and who has seen the JFK autopsy skull X-rays more than anyone else.

Using a densitometer, Dr. Mantik measured the light coming through the X-rays millimeter-by-millimeter (with some measurements at a tenth-of-a-millimeter calibration). After analyzing the JFK right lateral autopsy, Dr. Mantik provided forensic proof that the third and final shot hit JFK in the right temple by the ear. The bullet furrowed a trail to the back of JFK’s head and blew out a gaping, avulsive wound in the right occipital region of JFK’s skull.

Dr. Michael Chesser, M.D., made optical density measurements of the three extant JFK autopsy skull X-rays in the National Archives, confirming Dr. Mantik’s findings. In JFK’s lateral X-ray film, Dr. Michael Chesser spotted a keyhole fracture in the temporal bone near JFK’s right ear. Such a fracture was described in “Keyhole Fracture of the Skull,” published in the December 2008 issue of the Military Medicine Radiology Corner

Forensic and visual evidence of a second head shot, especially one from the right front, is sufficient evidence to dismiss the Warren Commission’s findings as a proven coverup.

“Assassins also have to think about the getaway.”

Oswald’s big plan? Slip out of the book depository, walk several blocks, take a city bus, and then hail a taxi to his boarding house. There he picked up his 38 and a coat and began to walk aimlessly?

Yes, I agree with you.
Also he was trained marine sharpshooter, so he could do things most ordinary people could not do.

The CIA would have never done it unless they were dead sure that the Veep wouldn’t unleash hell on them, especially with JFKs brother being the Attorney General.

LBJ cheated his way into office, was an exceptionally crude and vulgar man, and is reputed to have murdered in Texas before. He also suspected he might get dropped from the ticket.

The grassy knoll is all of 30 yards away. Super easy shot.

The kill shot was from the front.

The window is about 18m up. The distance to the x is approximately 60m. This is a 16 degree declination on a moving target. The target is moving left to right at approximately 30 degrees away from the depository at 25mph. That is not an easy shot. The grassy knoll is approximately 40m from the pint of impact with the target at the same elevation and coming almost straight in.

Think also about who Ruby was (something I should have mentioned in my last post).

It would be one thing if Ruby was a dedicated JFK campaign worker who was enraged at the assassination. But he wasn’t. Ruby was a small-time pimp with ties to organized crime. Not the type of guy who would care one way or the other about any president.

My guess is that Ruby was told to take the shot if the opportunity presented itself. And perhaps that change of clothing thing did the trick.

Yeah, that’s just a guess. We’ll never know for sure.

No, Zapruder had his back to the grassy knoll. A motorcycle cop rushed up the hill and was turned back by fake secret service agents. There is no film behind that wall.

I was channel surfing and saw the documentary. I thought they made good points about the coloration and the crowd density.

Switching the bodies and having Jackie go along with it was a bit more of a stretch. The phone call they played between her and LBJ — if it was real then yes she didn’t sound like she had just lost her husband.

People that believe the Warren Report probably also believe Biden got 81,000,000 votes. This Republic is doomed if Freepers accept it as truth.

The Warren Commission had only one job to do. And it wasn’t to find the truth. It was to calm the American public. That’s not to say that they were wrong.

It is to say that regardless of the evidence, the Warren Commission had to report that Lee Harvey Oswald was a troubled lone wolf. And Jack Ruby was a troubled lone wolf. So let’s all move on now.

Anyway, lotsa lone wolves there, eh?

Well first off, this guy was not chief at the time of the landings. Second, please point me to the claim that they fretted losing US funding. I don’t see that claim in the article.

Can you point me to reports, news articles or videos that state we were funding the Russian space program?
