JFK Assassination Discussion & Debate / Exhume the remains of John Connolly, considering overriding priority of Justice?
« Last post by Tom Scully on Today at 04:16:23 AM »If not now, when?
Considering historical precedent for exhuming the remains of a former US President,
and the examination of those remains comprising this precedent being much more
vague and broader in scope than the long standing, specific public interest in just
two small areas of a wrist and a thigh of the late John Connolly, how is this inquiry unreasonable
compared to precedent?
....along with strong evidence the target of the present inquiry, former Texas Governor John Connolly later behaved remarkably similarly to a traitor,

...is it now long past time that his remains be exhumed and then scanned for metal fragments for the purpose of weighing them and adding the
resulting total weight to the weight of CE399.

On this day in 1991, researchers exhumed the body of Zachary Taylor to deal with persistent speculation that Southern politicians had arranged to have the nation’s 12th president poisoned because he opposed extending slavery to the Western territories....

CONNALLY TAKES BULLET PIECES TO GRAVE
June 18, 1993
....FBI officials in Dallas had recommended that an attempt be made to recover the evidence and settle a long-standing controversy about whether Connally was hit by the same bullet that wounded President John F. Kennedy on Nov. 22, 1963, just before Kennedy was killed by another bullet that tore into his skull.
Dallas FBI agent Oliver B. Revell said he feared that a barrage of lawsuits would be discomfiting to the Connally family in the years ahead unless the fragments were recovered. "We hate to intrude into the family's grief," Revell said a few hours before the final graveside ceremonies, "but it's going to happen sooner or later. I'm afraid the family is going to be harassed on this until it's resolved."
The "single bullet" or "magic bullet" theory was crucial to the Warren Commission's findings that Lee Harvey Oswald, acting alone, killed the president and wounded Connally as the two men rode together in a motorcade through downtown Dallas.
