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.

That photo was taken right before, or shortly after, LBJ was sworn in. There’s another photo in the same scene where he’s raising his right hand.

I know...
Oswald was The Patsy and knew nothing of the 2 or 3 shooters awaiting the target to enter the kill zone. All were ready and timed to the first gunshot.

Yes. It’s been so long but some things are not forgotten.

As are the lunar orbiter photos.

Correct. We can actually see the footprints the astronauts left in the lunar surface.

That would be on AF2. Where something odd happened - wish I could remember what.

To tell the truth, at that time I was more worried about avoiding the Draft than JFK. Then a bit later, there were several demanding girlfriends and a lot, a lot of alcohol - so some details escaped into neuron nirvana.

Here’s a question for you!

With all the great data and lessons learned from those “moon missions” 238,000 miles away, why do we still have Trouble even getting a shuttle into orbit and back 200 miles up without blowing up on launch or re-entry? Why not go 1000 miles up and measure radiation levels in the Van Allen belts? Or 30,000 miles to measure cosmic radiation levels outside the belts?

I can relate to a certain extent. 8 years after JFK was killed, I was a grunt in Nam. If he’d lived, maybe me and my buddies wouldn’t have been there.

Hate to burst your bubble but...

I had a professor at Florida Atlantic University, Dr. Pat Marino, 5hat was on the grassy knoll that day, no gun men.

Dr

That may be true. I dunno. I don’t guess we’ll ever find out

Why do you capitalize “Trouble”. That’s weird.

You won’t bait me into defending the design of the STS/Space Shuttle. It was a horrible kludge, designed in a way that defied lessons learned from previous work, and STILL only crashed twice out of more than 100 flights. Meanwhile, Falcon9/Dragon works just fine, and even Soyuz is very reliable. Simply put, we DON’T have “Trouble (sic)” getting men into orbit.

Spacecraft from LEO to MEO to GEO to interplanetary space measure their radiation environment. It’s routine.

But you already know all this.

Less than 100 yards? Try less than 30 yards. I’ve stood there multiple times and am a retired LEO, so I have a high degree of confidence in my statement.

Thanks, you dive deeper than I do. I surmised that, the big clue was the path of brain matter, then the stupid watermelon test. Any guy from 12 to 120 has thought of using TV’s, beer cans, road signs, and watermelons for targets. First shot was highly likely to have been from the front, through the throat, kill shot also, only into the skull.

5 years after JFK was killed, 1968, I was enjoying the view across the Black Sea to Crimea; one year later I was facing 4 Soviet Armies 4 km away ...

Favorite song from that time: “Odessa” by the Bee Gees.

I remember the weekend after the assassination, less than 36 hours after it happened, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch had an entire separate multipage section on Lee Oswald.

The only way they could have done that is if they already had it fabricated and ready to roll and they sent it to the local newspapers.

I wouldn’t doubt it one bit. He was threatening the Federal Reserve and the MIC. He had to go...

Well, at least there was some privacy in a bulding, as opposed to outdoors amongst a massive crowd for the dastardly deed.
