Fingers of Fury has been all over the release of the new JFK video. He and everyone else have said it’s kinda boring–just shows the president passing by in his motorcade about 90 seconds before the shooting. But turns out, at least for this JFK author, the video proves the single bullet theory.
[T]o assassination researchers, the footage definitively resolves one of the case’s enduring controversies: that the bullet wound on Kennedy’s back, as documented and photographed during the autopsy, did not match up with the location of the bullet hole on the back of his suit jacket and shirt. The discrepancy has given conspiracy theorists fodder to argue that the autopsy photos had been retouched and the report fabricated.
Kennedy’s suit is clearly bunched in the video. This means, ballistically speaking (and how often do we get to speak ballistically?), that the wound in Kennedy’s back aligned with the bullet’s entry point in Kennedy’s suit. Hence, single bullet.
Then again, the guy writing the Op-Ed is the author of Case Closed: Lee Harvey Oswald and the Assassination of J.F.K.
