JFK Assassination Plus General Discussion And Debate / Re: Summary of Some of the Major Problems with the JFK Medical Evidence
« Last post by John Corbett on Yesterday at 07:30:09 PM »You look for any excuse to avoid dealing with evidence you can't explain.
I keep telling you this but it's like talking to a wall. I don't need to explain the medical evidence. I leave that to people who are qualified to do that. That doesn't include you, but that doesn't stop you from throwing your amateurish two cents into the conversation.

Obviously, Hay was summarizing the findings of Dr. Joseph N. Riley, a neuroscientist who specialized in neuroanatomy and neuropathology and who determined from the autopsy materials that two bullets hit JFK's head. Dr. Riley had several papers published in peer-reviewed scientific journals dealing with neuroscience. He was a professor of neuroscience at the University of Florida. He wrote two articles that presented evidence that two bullets struck Kennedy's head.
You love to cite people who offer opinions outside their area of expertise. None of the people you cite are forensic medical examiners which is a specific branch of medicine which requires skill sets outside of the area of radiation oncology or neuroanatomy. Neither of these fields involve the examination of gunshot wounds or more specifically, gunshot wounds to the head. How many medico-legal autopsies has Dr. Mantik performed. How many has Dr. Riley performed. Without even looking it up I'm going to take a flyer and say combined, the total number is less than one.

Your side has never had anybody with Dr. Riley's qualification in neuroscience,
Why would my "side" need or want such a person?

just like your side has nobody with Dr. Mantik's qualifications in the science of optical-density analysis of skull x-rays,
Dr. Mantik is a radiation oncologist. That is quite different from a radiologist who is an expert in reading x-rays. In fact, a radiation oncologist will often consult with a radiologist in determining the best treatment for a cancer patient under their care. Cancer care is Mantik's area of expertise. The field of medicine has many different specialties and being an expert in one does not make one an expert ina another. You are always citing people offering opinions outside their area of expertise. When your toilet gets clogged, do you call in an electrician?

nor anybody with the qualifications of the HSCA's seven acoustical experts in acoustical science (an additional BBN acoustical scientist wrote one of the appendices for Dr. Josiah Thompson's 2021 book Last Second in Dallas).
It never surprises me when a CT clings to the discredited acoustical analysis since they have no real evidence on their side.

Speaking of the NAS/NRC panel, are you aware that Dr. Thompson reveals in his book that when the NRC/NAS panel sent BBN acoustical scientist Dr. James Barger a draft of their report, Dr. Barger replied with an 8-page critique, but the panel declined to publish his critique and did not address, or even mention, his objections in their report? Humm. . . .
Barger's team only concluded there was a 50% probability that the recording showed a shot from the GK and that the impulses on the tape could not be proven to be gunshots. That's based solely on the acoustics and doesn't take into account the cross talk from channel 2 which indicated the shots were not made during the recording or the photo evidence that there was no motorcycle at the spot on Houston St. that Weiss and Aschkenasy presumed the motorcycle had to be.
