...KING: Was it a crack?
CONNALLY: Yes. And I wasn't sure that it was a gunshot because the motorcycles had been, you know, backfiring all around us. But I knew it was something and I turned and looked just in time to see his hands fly up to his face. And he just sunk down into the car. Said not a word. He just had a strange look in his eyes and said nothing.
KING: Did you know immediately?
CONNALLY: Well, I felt like then that it was -- John sitting right in front of him knew it was a shot.
KING: He did?
CONNALLY: Well, he's a hunter and a shooter, you know. So he turned quick...
KING: To his right?
CONNALLY: ... to his right and he couldn't see him because he was directly in front of him. And he said, "No, no, no" and turned to his left.
KING: He visibly said that?
CONNALLY: Yes. And turned to his left and he still couldn't see him. Now this is a second or two. Then, as he whirled back, the second shot hit John and...
KING: Where did it enter him?
CONNALLY: It went under his shoulder, out through -- under the nipple. It went through -- it took out five inches of his fifth rib and went through one of his lungs. He would -- which had all of that...
KING: I thought it hit his wrist.
CONNALLY: His -- he's turning back and his hand is on his thigh. It crushed this wrist and you know, shot the cufflink off.
KING: And you see him shot?
CONNALLY: Yes. And then it landed in his leg. Now, that bullet did all of that. John said, "My God, they're going to kill us all," and just fell over. Blood everywhere.
KING: Was there a third shot?
CONNALLY: There was a third shot.
KING: That's disputed, right?
CONNALLY: No. There's no dispute. You can't argue with me. You can argue with the Warren Commission. You can argue with anybody else, but they weren't in the car. And I was in that car. There were three shots. I have a recollection of all three. The third shot...
KING: What did the third one do?
CONNALLY: Well, I couldn't see it because I had the weight -- I had pulled John over in my lap to get him out of the line of fire. And I couldn't move. But I heard the third shot and then, bloody matter, like buck shot, little pieces were all over the interior of the car, all over our clothes.
KING: Was that Kennedy's brain?
CONNALLY: That was his head and I guess, his brain. And she said, "They've killed my husband. I have his brains in my hand."
KING: You heard her say that?
CONNALLY: I heard her say that.
KING: So you're hearing everything?
CONNALLY: Yes. But I -- but I was -- we were not saying anything. I was whispering to John, "Be still. It'll be all right."

The series that ran all day on the History channel(British?) was pretty interesting. Didn't watch all of it but the general conclusion was that it was a contract killing with 3 shooters, two behind, one high and one low and one in front.
There were 4? shots, two simultaneously at least. The one from the front(grassy knoll) was the head shot, exploding bullet.
He was named Lucien Satees(sp) and was dressed as a cop w/o a hat. He was a professional killer of long experience and later died in Mexico about 10 years later. They were purportedly paid in heroin.
The contact killers were from Marseille and were mafia related. They came into Mexico and crossed into Texas, were met by mob figures from Chicago and put up in a safe house.
After the shooting, the gun(on the grassy knoll) was passed to an accomplice dressed as a railroad worker who walked to the tracks nearby and dismanteled the weapon and put it into a tool box and walked off with it.
They stayed in Dallas for about 10 days and went back thru Montreal.
Oswald was the fall guy. The Warren report was a coverup for whatever reason and the autopsy photos were faked as the doctor at Parkland said, in the program, that the face was intact and the right rear of the head was exploded with a 3 inch exit wound in the back. This was not the picture presented on the official autopsy photo not would square with an entry from the rear.
