ditto!
Posner says Oswald did it, and backs it up.
Well, at least that "fact" is wrong. Connally was next to his wife in the middle of the car, not in the front seat. Sloppy work.
Hello?
A rehash of the Dictabelt recording of the motorcycle cop's open microphone that supposedly recorded all of the shots fired at Dealy Plaza that day.
Some engineers have developed a fascinating method for creating a digital copy of the recording so that it can be analyzed digitally. It will likely reveal...nothing.
That would be a feat. For the real shooter, imagine the pressure, the potential for a fight or capture and the fact that he had never worked on that range before. To recreate something, IMO, is far easier than to pull it off under the gun (so to speak).
There's a new one. Someone "enhanced" the Z film back in '64?
Well, the Warren Commision said the same thing. They all might be right and I might be wrong, but whoever did it, if they did it as claimed, was a true wizard.
As far as the Warren Commission, it was not a homicide investigation..therefore it is unlikely that the case will ever be solved.
Sadly, JFK being shot was the turning point in the MSM. So many up and coming "stars" lost their virginity due to that event. They had their heads in the clouds of Camelot, and this brought them crashing down, turning them cynical.
Jim Marrs' Book was the one used for the basis of JFK.
Interesting that Kennedys' brain has been misplaced. Is that not convienient?
Teddy's is preserved in alcohol.
Figure 2 is of course correct. And the so-called "magic" bullet was anything but pristine; not fragmented, but bent out of shape.
When the first shot was fired, JFK yelled, "I'm hit!" because Oswald's first round splattered on the sidewalk and some fragments apparently hit JFK on the back of his head. Yet most people think it was the round that went through his throat, then on through Connally, that was first. He could not have yelled anything if that had been the case. This could also account for many on the overpass who insisted that a round had ricocheted near them. It was Oswald's second round that went through the two men.
But the second round (that went through both JFK and John Connally without fragmenting) and the round that fragmented and blew apart JFK's skull were two different types of rounds. Had his skull been hit with the same thick FMJ, it wouldn't have had the disastrous effect as seen on the Zapruder film. The only two likely scenarios for this was (1) for Oswald to have had different types of rounds in his magazine, or (2) for there to have been another shooter somewhere.
Just my opinion, of course; like many others, I could be wrong.
Reader's Digest has something about Kennedy this month.

The article was kind of off target.
The dictabelt didn't record any shots, the mic wasn't in the motorcade. Those things they called shot impulses happen a minute after the real shooting.
We have digital copies of the dictabelt now. The Archives is trying to find a way to reproduce the original in its possession but copies were made in previous decades before the original deteriorated.
Bump
A missing, shattered brain preserved in alcohol would explain a lot about Teddy's behavior, wouldn't it?
Different ammo would sure bugger things up for the shooter, too.
How about interrogating a "cop killer" and the suspected assassin of the President of the United States without any recording device of any kind ... even a stenographer and yes they did have tape recorders in 1963.
