JFK Assassination Forum

Earlene Roberts account is probably one of the least important pieces of evidence we have. She said Oswald came and went ABOUT 1:00. I have no reason to doubt that. She said he had his jacket on. While I have no reason to doubt that either, I wouldn't take it to the bank solely her word. The fact Oswald was seen throwing the jacket under a car and a jacket was retrieved from there that was identified belonging to him is enough for me. It witl never be enough for the dedicated CTs. They aren't in search of answers. Their game is to come up with excuses to reject evidence. Like Oswald's jacket that was found under the car.

The fact Oswald was seen throwing the jacket under a car....

They ignored completely my list of questions mainly : WHO found the jacket  under the car and WHO found the blue gray jacket in the Domino room and WHY was it found in the Domino room?

It’s like arguing with Copernicus, who would say well , yes, those anomalous  planetary motions  exist , however they are only a minor discrepancy. . Trust the other Mountain of evidence that the Earth is at the Center of the Universe and that the Pope ( WC ) has concluded the theory is proved beyond reasonable doubt.

This BS again?

We've just discussed most of it in the "Podcast on Tippit" thread, where you ran away because you didn't want to answer my question about Earlene Roberts and now you want to do it all over again.

Oh well, have fun, but dealing with your propaganda once in a month is more than enough for me.

I suggest you are seeing what you want to see. JBC's shoulder rotation in your photo looks about 30 degrees to me. Your drawing shows a turn that is well past 45 degrees. If the shoulders in the forward facing position are at the 9:00 position and the perpendicular position to that is 12:00, I would put JBC's rotation in the photo at 10:00 and 11:00 in your drawing. That's a 30 degree difference

I appreciate the fair critique of my Sketchup 3D skills.  Jerry Organ does a much better job. 

But the position of the shoulder is really not that important.  It is the position of the lower and middle back that matters because the bullet is travelling on a downward slope of 18 degrees relative to the car at that point and just passes over the back of the jump seat:

So it would have to pass by the middle/lower back, not the shoulder or upper back, in order to strike the thigh directly.  But I do appreciate that you think the trajectory intersecting with the left side of JBC is possible.

 

It all depends on how much JBC is turned in z193.  I suggest he is turned to past the sightline to Zapruder which is 30 degrees or a 1 o'clock position but it is difficult to be exact because of the poor resolution.  It is at least a 1:30/45 degree turn.
