A former Secret Service agent who was present at President John F. Kennedy's assassination has come forward with a new claim that would debunk the 'magic bullet' theory and raises questions about whether there was a second shooter.
Paul Landis, 88, broke his silence on Saturday, nearly 60 years after Kennedy was shot dead in a motorcade passing through Dallas, to share his bombshell recollection with the New York Times.
Landis, who in 1963 was a young Secret Service agent assigned to protect First Lady Jaqueline Kennedy, said that in the chaos following the shooting, he picked up a nearly pristine bullet sitting on the top of the back seat of the open limousine.
It was just behind where Kennedy was sitting when he was killed, he says. Landis says he took the projectile and placed it on the president's hospital stretcher to preserve it for the autopsy investigators.
That bullet, the first piece of evidence logged in the murder investigation, has for six decades been said to have been found on the stretcher of Texas Governor John Connally, and was hypothesized to have fallen free from a wound to his thigh.
Landis thinks the bullet may have rolled onto Connally's stretcher from Kennedy's while they were next to each other.
It has long been known as the 'magic bullet' -- the bullet that supposedly passed through Kennedy's neck from the rear, then entered Connally's right shoulder, struck his rib, exited under his right nipple, passed through his right wrist and hit his left thigh.
But Landis' assertion that it had actually exited Kennedy in his Cadillac could lay waste to the magic bullet theory - and bolster the claim that Lee Harvey Oswald did not operate alone on the day of the murder.

Too soon!
“alone”
Yup .... alone .... right ...
Gettin’ harder for the Deep State to hide that they wanted LJB elevated ONLY to “keep the n***ers voting for us forever” “thanks” to the not-so-”Great Society Act”

Yes, since maybe he is no longer worried about being Epsteined. I wonder if the deep state did Kennedy in? I heard a rumor that someone asked Nixon if he wanted to be president, to which he said, yes, but he wasn’t going to kill anyone, to get it. Another rumor I heard, was that Nixon told Ford, if Ford didn’t pardon him, he would blow the lid on the Warren commission. I don’t know if these rumors are true, but they have been going around.
and that fast ....?... that episode was one of my favorites
After decades of reading on the subject and viewing various documentaries, it seems pretty obvious to me that LHO was a shooter among two or more shooters. The bullet that entered JFK’s throat was not fired by Oswald. LHO was likely the designated “patsy” (to use his term) with the entire operation attributed to him.
Good catch.
When arriving at the theater...Oswald was a suspect ONLY with the Officer Tippit shooting (remember, there were two significant shootings that day). He was taken downtown and booked, then gun-powder tested. No gun-powder on his cheeks...gun-powder found on his hands.
More than likely, Oswald shot Tippit (no reason ever devised to make sense). On firing the rifle multiple times? Probably never happened. He was not the first shooter or the second. But he in all likelihood...probably had a Tippit ‘problem’.
Also, this ‘landlady’ who rented him the room. She’d never done this before, and never again after Oswald departed this Earth. Oddly, her family and husband....had CIA connections.
He must have something terminal, something other than old age.
I just do an image search....in this case “Seinfeld, magic loogie” and plug it into the html....you get fast with dfwgator, Larry Lucido, SaveFerris, and others out there.
Given what we know about the CIA and the death of JFK—even for the good guys in the CIA—it must feel shameful to have worked for that agency.
I thought GHWB died years ago.
Here are the 8 shooters:
There is a lot of ‘may have’ and ‘it suggests’ and ‘possibly’s’ in this thing. Sorry, I don’t buy it.
Cadillac? I thought it was a Lincoln.
This is all very interesting, though. Stay tuned, I guess.
