JFK Assassination Forum

The JFK Autopsy Back Photo speaks for itself.

Where does Michael Griffith work?

"Stupidity"? There was nothing along the lines of "stupidity" with the WR written description of the JFK "BACK" wound being changed to the "base of the neck".

That's exactly what I believe. I have no reason to believe otherwise.

Hanlon's Razor
Hanlon's Razor, also known as Occam's Razor, is a philosophical razor that suggests a way of eliminating unlikely explanations for human behavior. It is a heuristic tool that encourages people to consider alternative explanations for actions rather than to assume an intent to harm. The adage states: "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity."

This maxim is especially true when we are talking about government operations. I say this as a retired government employee.

The JFK assassination was naturally a very stressful event for all. It is hardly surprising that in such a circumstance, fallible human beings would be more prone to making errors. Errors in judgement, errors of omission, etc. Everyone involved would have better served had they followed the same established and proven procedures that would be used in any other murder investigation. Instead, some people chose to deviate from the norm with less than satisfactory results. The selection of the autopsy team is a glaring example of that.
