Pittsburgh Forensic Pathologist Says JFK Assassination Investigation Is Far From Over

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) — A Pittsburgh forensic pathologist says the investigation into the JFK assassination is far from over.

On Nov. 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy was murdered in broad daylight in Dallas, Texas. The Warren Commission concluded Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone when he shot the president from the 6th floor of the Texas Book Depository. For years, many have doubted those conclusions and believed it was a greater conspiracy.

One of the most outspoken critics of the Warren Report is nationally-acclaimed forensic pathologist Dr. Cyril Wecht.

Time for all data and paperwork to be released and new eyes to look at the evidence. This should not be a mystery.

If you actually look into the facts, and not conspiracy baloney, you’ll find the bullet was neither pristime nor magic, and Oswald was the perp.

Agreed, although he's 86 years old.

I've watched pretty much everything I can find on YT about the JFK assassination, and it's pretty hard not to agree with the Dr. Wecht. In fact, the problem is that there are so many alternative conspiracy theories, all of which are supported by pretty substantial positive evidence, as well as very curious negative evidence (X-rays and pathological samples lost, pictures doctored, dead witnesses including the accused shooter, etc.).

Some of the evidence was sealed for 75 years on orders from the Warren Commission or as directed by federal judges.

The Warren Commission was dirty. It was controlled by LBJ and J. Edger Hoover, both of whom were corrupt. LBJ had gotten one of his henchmen off after he committed first-degree murder in broad daylight, with witnesses, in a public place, and was involved with other murders of people who inconvenienced him. Hoover was hip deep in Mafia money, and protected the Mafia from federal scrutiny for decades.

There's a lot there, and I wonder if it will ever come out. I imagine it will.

Bystanders and cops rushed up the grassy knoll, thinking that’s where the kill shot came from. but they were conspiracy theorists I guess

This guy says it was a conspiracy to overthrow the government. Really. LBJ was sworn in within hours. The government continued. Hyperbole.

I predict when this new data is released... Nothing changes.

From the Wall Street Journal
NOVEMBER 24, 2007

Oswald was a dedicated communist who had defected to the Soviet Union in 1959 out of disgust with American capitalism. After becoming disillusioned with Soviet life, he returned to the U.S. in 1962. In early 1963, he bought a scoped rifle through the mail and soon used it to fire a shot (which missed) at retired general Edwin Walker, the head of the John Birch Society in Dallas. In the summer of 1963, Oswald was active in street demonstrations in support of Castro. In September 1963, he visited the Soviet and Cuban embassies in Mexico City seeking a travel visa that would allow him to travel to Cuba.

Oswald was among the radicals of the time who saw Third World revolutionaries like Castro as the wave of the communist future. He was well aware of Kennedy's efforts to overthrow Castro's regime. As a Senate investigative committee suggested in 1975, Oswald shot Kennedy to interrupt his administration's plans to assassinate Castro or to overthrow his regime in Cuba.

Ignoring Oswald's communist links, journalists and political leaders quickly claimed the president was a martyr to civil rights. Earl Warren said that Kennedy had "suffered martyrdom as a result of the hatred and bitterness that has been injected into the life of our nation by bigots." Martin Luther King said the assassination had to be viewed against the backdrop of violence against civil rights marchers in the South. James Reston wrote in the New York Times that "something in the nation itself, some strain of madness and violence, had destroyed the highest symbol of law and order."

The consensus opinion was that Kennedy was a victim of hate and bigotry, a casualty of his support for civil rights. The Cold War and Kennedy's ongoing feud with Castro were rarely mentioned as factors behind the assassination. The reasons? Mrs. Kennedy wanted her husband remembered as a modern-day Abraham Lincoln. Lyndon Johnson feared complicating relations with the Soviet Union. Liberals feared a replay of the McCarthy period, when the Wisconsin senator inflamed public opinion about fears of domestic communism.
