Tech puts JFK conspiracy theories to rest

A team of experts assembled by the Discovery Channel has recreated the assassination of John Fitzgerald Kennedy. Using modern blood spatter analysis, new artificial human body surrogates, and 3-D computer simulations, the team determined that the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository was the most likely origin of the shot that killed the 35th president of the United States.

Thought you guys would find this interesting.

Conspiracy theories never die.

[aWolverine]

Bush did it!

[Carl LaFong]

They’ve done this umpteen billion times. It never satisfies the conspiracy cultists . It’s a religion.

[EagleUSA]

Norma Jean did it !!!!! (so to speak)

[happinesswithoutpeace]

yep doesn’t matter with troofer types...they either deny facts or “evolve” their ct’s after they get disproven

[Radix]

The Discovery Channel can’t do the math that was available for solving back in the 1960s.

The lone gunman BS theory is exactly that....Bull$hit.

[nufsed]

ah! Which one?

[advance_copy]

A communist killled JFK. And now we’ve put one in the White House.

[aWolverine]

Gosh, and I thought Oliver Stone got it right. Who knew?

[Doug TX]

Good to hear the JFK assassination is now solved.

I thought the Warren commission solved it 40yrs ago or so?

My goodness, how much $$$ wasted trying to solve a murder that was already solved.

[org.whodat]

Actually it as been done over and over and over. The results always come back the same.

[Old Sarge]

Bread and circuses. That’s what the Sheep want most.

[nufsed]

There was some back-spatter — material that flew back in the opposite direction of the bullet's trajectory — but not much.

So most of the boood splatter went forward and Mrs. Kennedy was crawling on the back of the car to get to the "not much?"

I thought the car was scrubbed down quickly. How do we know the blood pattern inside the car?

[informavoracious]

The JFK conspiracy theories will go on as long as Elvis is alive.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

Didn’t the Discovery Channel do this several years ago? With exactly the same type limo, artificial cadavers and ammo from the same lot they managed to recreate the exact wounds of the Kennedy shooting proving that only ONE shooter did it from behind from the school book depository.

Many years ago I read a report by Gerald Ford (Later President Ford) that on the rifle was found a thread caught on the butplate. It matched the shirt worn by Lee Harvey Oswald at the time.

Good to know that the Warren Commission isn’t investigating the banking problems......

[informavoracious]

I never believed Jackie was crawling to get JFK’s dislodged brain tissue. She was crawling back to give the Secret Service agent a hand up into the car. That’s what I see going on.

[nufsed]

Did she ever make a statement about it?
