Additionally, the theorists misplace Connally in the car--they assume that he was sitting at the same level and directly in front of Kennedy. Actually, he was slightly lower and a bit to the left. When put Connally in his true position, the bullet path through both bodies lines up much better.

Excellent post. Connally was in the jump seat in front of JFK and was probably 6 or 8 inches lower. Also, the entrance wound scar on Connally's back was oblong and about one inch long, which could have only happened if the bullet was tumbling. Reason for the tumbling? It passed through the tissue of JFK's neck first, without striking any bone.

Autopsy reports show the back would on Kennedy had a 45 degree downward angle. The wound on Connally had a 39 degree downward angle. How in the world did a bullet enter the back going downward at 45 degrees and exit higher up on Kennedy's body (the neck), and then go into Johnson at 39 degrees downward? The magic bullet theory is ridiculous. Even Spector (it's author) has admitted it's wrong.
