The Limo Bullet Fragments....

--- Quote from: Joe Elliott on May 21, 2018, 01:42:17 AM ---False. Ballistic experts Robert Frazier and Joseph Nicol both studied the two fragments recovered from the limousine, CE-567 and CE-569, and concluded that based on the marks on them, both were fired from the rifle found on the sixth floor. Both fragments had enough marks on them to link them to this rifle to the exclusion of all other rifles in the world.

BS
--- Quote ---Question:
What ballistic expert has stated that fragments can never be linked to a particular rifle based on the marks on them.
--- End quote ---
None, because it's BS.
--- Quote ---Couldn?t any rifle of the proper type fire a bullet with a certain exotic metal composition? I assume you mean a mostly intact bullet was recovered, and a fragment was also recovered and the question came up ?Did the fragment come from that bullet?. I doubt any ballistic expert would say it did, to the exclusion of all other bullets in the world.

Correct, no ballistic expert would/could.

Some fragments are indeed to small to match to a rifle. But that is not true of all fragments.

This is utter nonsense!!.....and only a gullible, ignoramus would believe it.
In a telephone conversation with LBJ on 11/23/63 J.Edgar Hoover told LBJ..."We have what we call slivers, which are not very valuable in the identification."

In the book, Mr. Sturdivan explains that the effect of the material that is struck by a bullet on that bullet (does it deform, does it fragment) mostly depends on the density of the material.

This cannot be right. Mass per unit area, maybe. But not mass per unit volume (density). A 4 inch thick gold brick may deform a bullet but a thin gold foil certainly won't. Both have the same density.

Could you bring a 4 inch thick gold brick to my house so we can perform the experiment?

What do you mean, "false"? How in the world does that tell you who fired it?
