The official explanation was that Oswald acted alone - he fired three bullets from behind the motorcade, the first was the “magic bullet” which entered the back of JFKs neck and went down to Connally’s arm and leg; the second missed; the third was the head shot. The “magic bullet” theory requires that the second bullet have entered the back of the President’s neck - could someone explain why Gerry Ford, a Warren Commission member, in 1997 publicly admitted that he had moved the bullet hole on the official autopsy drawing of the Warren Commission from JFK’s mid-back to the back of the neck?? (this is from an online article from the NY Times in 1997). Second, why was there an incoming bullet in the front windshield and why was that windshield immediately replaced by Ford/Lincoln when the limo was taken to Dearborn the following Monday for a fix over? Third, why did the emergency room personnel state on the day of the murder that the bullet in JFK’s neck came from the front, only to recant after visits from the FBI, those remaining alive a few years ago reaffirmed in a video only released last year?
Those are all good reasons not to believe anything the government tells us.
Not enough truthful ones, anyway.
Dr. James “Red” Duke (RIP) was in the Trauma residency program at Parkland Hospital that day and was in the ER when they brought Mr. Kennedy in. His Chief Resident pulled rank and moved Dr. Duke out of the theater.
He told me that it was obvious the President was all but dead, so he went over to Governor Connelly to work on him. He said that he and the Governor were great friends from that day on. He always figured that he had drawn the better assignment.
