This image is wrong because it assumes the bullet moves in a straight line through Kennedy. The bullet is travelling through several different layers in Kennedys neck which could have caused the bullet to arc upwards as it passed through his neck. Just like bullets ark upwards when fired through water.

  I like the Image as it shows the bullet exiting the Upper Chest. Organ and others that consistently proffer this Visual Aid defeat their own argument.

   The interviews Thompson did are invaluable. They can Not be Changed. Seeing Thompson banging around like Columbo in a beat up car and sporting wrinkled clothing prior to achieving success/$$ with his "6 Seconds" makes me think his changing assassination philosophy was more in line with "follow the money". I'm Not a Groden guy, but he stuck to his guns and was rewarded with a card table inside Dealey Plaza on weekends.

   Perfect. EVERY time this is posted it displays the bullet Exiting the upper chest/Sternum. Not in the neck/Above the tie knot. This Exiting from the Upper Chest/Sternum was also on display when Specter took that photo with him holding the pointer. "Plain as day"!

There are none so blind. The bullet nicked the tie knot. The wound level in the neck was lower-front-neck at autopsy.



Thompson's explanation for the neck wound was a fragment from the head wound going through the bottom of the brain case and exiting at the throat. He may have backed off of that, too Along with his scoffing of the Umbrella Man "signalman" theory and Zapruder alterationism, I think Tink is almost in the LN camp.

  Yeah. Ditch that diagram YOU Posted due to it defeating your point, and instead proffer a suspect autopsy photo. Frying Pan Meet Fire!

Bugliosi picks only the evidence that backs his argument

"Even more egregious is his handling of the trajectory through JFK's back and neck. A face-sheet on which notes were taken during the autopsy shows the supposed exit wound in the throat to be higher than the entry wound in the back.

When the autopsy photos were finally produced in the 1970s, a medical panel concluded that the course of the bullet through Kennedy was at an upward angle (the accepted number is 11 degrees). So how does Kennedy get shot from the sixth floor of a building when the bullet takes an upward path through his body?

The Warren Commission took the simplest course. The staff let the autopsy doctor instruct a medical illustrator to raise the back wound from the back to the neck. Commission member U.S. Rep. Gerald Ford then corrected a final draft of the panel's report to read "neck wound" rather than "back wound." Voila, a "back wound" had become a "neck wound."

Faced with that 11 degree upward angle, the House Select Committee on Assassinations took a more inventive approach in its 1978-79 investigation. It just leaned Kennedy forward at the time he was shot.
And Connally, who took a shot at a 27-degree downward angle? His body position was leaned back a sufficient amount. Voila, an 11-degree upward angle through one body had become a 27-degree downward angle through a second body, thus a straight line had been maintained."

The bullet never arced upwards as it passed through his neck.

A suspect autopsy photo?
