You said three witnesses said they saw a bullet. One the second page of this thread you posted this:

Richard Dudman | The Republic 12/21/63
"A group of police officers were examining the area at the side of the street where the President was hit,
and a police inspector told me they had just found another bullet in the grass.“

Dallas Times Herald 11/23/63
"Dallas Police Lt. J. C. Day of the crime lab estimated the distance from the sixth-floor window...
to the spot where one of the bullets was recovered at 100 yards.”

You cited Dudman saying somebody told him he saw a bullet. That's hearsay. Dudman did not say he saw a bullet.

There is no record of Day saying he saw a bullet. There is no record of anyone saying he saw a bullet. All of this nonsense comes from embellishments of things people said they heard, not something they actually saw.

We can safely label claims that somebody saw a bullet in the grass or saw a bullet taken from the grass as total  BS:

A cop told him directly - how is that hearsay?

He said it directly to the Dallas Times Herald - in fact, he gave an estimation of yardage - Record of it was printed in the paper on 11/23
 :D Your faulted opinion of what is or isn't hear-say are just lame excuses that don't mean very much

hear·say
[ˈhɪəseɪ]

noun
hearsay (noun)
information received from other people which cannot be substantiated; rumour:

Did Dudman substantiate that a bullet was taken from the grass? No, he only told us what he heard, or more to the point, what he thinks he was told. Often people misinterpret what they are told. Either way, Dudman's account is hearsay.

I have yet to see you, MTG, or anybody else provide a direct quote from Day saying he saw a bullet in the grass. I can believe after being told there was a bullet hole that he might have estimated the distance. That doesn't mean Day confirmed there had been a bullet in the grass.

 BS: lame
Dudman was told directly and is substantiated by the other witnesses.
The Day quote is a first hand statement to the newspaper.

hearsay/ˈhirˌsā/
"Hearsay is information or a statement you heard from someone else rather than something you saw or experienced yourself."

There is nothing hear-say about either one.
 :D You just made that up.

Still waiting for you to name just one person who is on record as saying they saw a bullet taken from the grass. In lieu of that, it is nothing more than a rumor.
