A 2003 episode of Court TV’s “Forensic Files” explains how the so called “Magic Bullet” actually did cause the first wound to Pres. Kennedy and to Gov. Connally. First, a company digitally mapped all of Dealy Plaza, a technique that was not available at the time of the initial investigation. Then, they created a replica of the limo and placed 2 men, roughly the same size and weight of the Pres. and Gov. and used the Zapruder film to position them correctly.

One of the interesting points made was that Gov. Connally was sitting lower than the Pres. as he was in a smaller jump seat. This finding points out that the bullet did NOT have to turn in midair to strike both men.

The next point was that after the first shot missed, Gov Connally began to turn around. The second shot struck the Pres. in the back and exited through his throat. It then tumbled, (a common occurrence in the shooting of long rounds) and struck the Gov. in the back, creating an oblong wound. The bullet slowed a bit, changing trajectory, traveled through the GOV’s arm, broke a bone in his wrist, traveled through his thigh, exited and was recovered

In addition, fragments recovered from the Gov. and the round itself were tested in a nuclear reactor and there was a match.

I was extremely skeptical of the “Magic Bullet” until I saw this documentary. I’m still skeptical of whether or not Oswald acted alone, but the “ Magic Bullet” theory was proven to be factual.

Yep. I have no problem with the magic bullet. I can accept that one. But the film clearly depicts the fatal headshot coming from the front. You can see his head moving back from the force of it. So it appears to be Oswald plus someone else on the grassy knoll based on the film.

Amazing, but the truth is, digital reproduction can be used to make the impossible seem very credible.
