How Mrs. Connally Described Her Husband Being Shot-HSCA

Mrs. Connally had the best seat in the house (pardon the flip expression) when it came to injuries sustained by her husband, Gov. JBC on 11.22.

Mrs. Connally's testimony flatly contradicts, and really obviates, the SBT-LNT theorizing.

After being shot, JBC was incapacitated, and she thought him "dead." 

I rather suspect a man shot through the chest with a large high-powered slug would in fact be incapacitated. That is a  reasonable assumption.

The SBT-LNT hypothesis is that after being shot through the chest, JBC makes a 180-degree turn in his seat to check on JFK. That is, the SBT-LNT theory posits, despite contradictory evidence, that JBC was shot ~Z-221.

The SBT-LNT hypothesis does not check out with the Z-film, or the testimony of both Connallys.

Connally: I was knocked over, just doubled over by the force of the bullet. It went in my back and came out my chest about 2 inches below and the left of my right nipple. The force of the bullet drove my body over almost double and when I looked, immediately I could see I was just drenched with blood. (1 HSCA 42)

My best guess is JBC is shot ~Z-295. After Z-221, JBC is bolt upright. Not doubled over.

Caveat emptor, and draw your own conclusions.

In the Zapruder film, Mrs. Connally can clearly be seen looking straight ahead, and not at all at her husband as he's hit, like she said she did.  It's easy to distinguish her forehead and hairline, as well as upper facial features, i.e. eyes and nose in frames 225 and 226.  She doesn't turn her head to her right until after her husband is struck.  She didn't see him when he was struck.  She saw the aftermath of when he was struck.

My view:

Well, sure Mrs JBC did not see Gov. JBC being shot at ~Z-221, as he was not shot then.

JBC was shot ~Z-295, maybe even a few frames later.

Just IMHO.

This is just silly. Of course she wasn't looking at him in Z225-226, because he wasn't hit yet. Sheesh, how long are you guys going to bury your heads in the sand and ignore the fact that Connally himself, the guy who actually experienced the wounding, identified Z234 as the moment of impact, after carefully studying high-quality color prints of the relevant frames under high magnification? His identification of Z234 as the moment of impact dovetails perfectly with what forensic science tells us about how long it would have taken for his shoulder to be driven downward, for the air forced from his lungs to cause his cheeks to puff, and for a pained expression to appear on his face.

But you guys have to ignore this plain, obvious evidence because it destroys your SBT fantasy.

She had the worst seat for determining what was going on. She was too close to what was happening to take it all in. She couldn't see both JFK and JBC in the same field of vision. That is why nothing she says invalidates the SBT.

By an unreasonable man.

The SBT-LNT hypothesis is that after being shot through the chest, JBC makes a 180-degree turn in his seat to check on JFK. That is, the SBT-LNT theory posits, despite contradictory evidence, that JBC was shot ~Z-221.

That's asinine. JBC turned 180 degrees in reaction to being shot through the chest.

The SBT-LNT hypothesis does not check out with the Z-film, or the testimony of both Connallys.

Connally: I was knocked over, just doubled over by the force of the bullet. It went in my back and came out my chest about 2 inches below and the left of my right nipple.

My best guess is JBC is shot ~Z-295. After Z-221, JBC is bolt upright. Not doubled over.

Your best guess is FUBAR. The only thing you got right is that it was a guess, and very bad one. It's even worse than Andrew Mason's. I doubt either of you could spell "cat" if we spotted you the "C" and the "A"

Caveat emptor, and draw your own conclusions.

We have and most of us think you and Andrew Mason haven't got a clue what happened.

You should find a new hobby. This one doesn't seem to suit your. It requires analytical skills. You don't seem to have any.
