The President's personal physician, Dr. George Burkley, drafted the death certificate on November 23, 1963.

It stated the back wound was "at about the level of the third thoracic vertebra."

One of the autopsists, Pierre A. Finck, was questioned under oath February 24, 1969, in State of Louisiana v Clay L. Shaw:

Q Can you give me approximately how far this probe went?

A The first fraction of an inch.

The FBI autopsy report²³ stated the back wound entered ". . .a short distance. . .the end of the opening could be felt with the finger."

²³[Warren Commission Documents, 1964; Record Group 272, CD-7, pp. 280-285]

Hence, no transiting on to six more wounds, no Magic Bullet, no Single Bullet Theory, no Lone Gunman.

Holy cow, if it entered three vertabrae down, in order to go out at the throat, it would've had to been going up at 50 degreees from the horizontal, not including the fact that Kennedy was sitting in a seat where he was probably leaning back a little. Spector's SBT is just out there.

Posting a link which I just saw over on the google alt.kennedy site.

Someone there spotted this on ebay, purportedly a photo taken just seconds before JFK was shot, and was wondering if it was the real deal and whether it tells anything new about the shooting.

Selling for a hefty sum too, actually I see the auction's over and it didn't sell, but photo is still there to view.
