The JFK History Page

One of the greatest sources of controversy in the JFK case is the question of where the fatal headshot at Zapruder frame 312-313 came from. For decades, conspiracy buffs have argued that the President’s “back and to the left” motion suggested that he was hit then, from the front. But a closer look at the film tells us that before he went backward, he was driven forward by a shot that must have come from behind him. That apparent fact is further corroborated by damage to the interior side of the windshield and bullet fragments that landed in the front of the limousine.

Meanwhile, as the battle raged on between conspiracy believers and deniers, the three top nongovernment experts to examine the autopsy Xrays made discoveries that contradicted both sides of the controversy. Drs. Riley, Mantik and Robertson each independently concluded that there was clear evidence in the Xrays that the President had been hit by two shots - one from the rear and one from the right-front.

Recently, I completed a video which discusses this issue in detail, and includes statements from Dr. Thornton Boswell’s testimony before the ARRB, which corroborate the fact that a massively damaged area in the upper-rear of the President’s head was covered over in the photos, by placing scalp and bone pieces which had been previously blown out, back in place. Boswell even admitted that he was the one who can be seen in some of the photos, pulling the scalp forward. You can read his entire testimony at this link.

The video is entitled, the final shots - addendum and I have positioned it as a followup to my other video on this subject entitled, The JFK Assassination - the Last Shot.

MY VIDEOS

The shot at frame 285. This gunshot, which was first discovered as a loud noise, by Dr. Luis Alvarez, is the simplest and easiest way to prove that multiple snipers were involved in the attack.

The final shots This video is about the final shot that day, which struck the President a fraction of a second after the terrible explosion at frame 313. CAUTION - this video contains extremely graphic images!

The final shots - addendum contains important additional information including statements that Dr. Thornton Boswell made to the ARRB which confirm the presence of massive damage to the back of the President’s head.

The single bullet theory For decades, we have debated whether one shot really passed through both the President and Governor Connally. But we ignored the questions of where it came from and who fired it.

Addendum to the SBT A short video that clarifies a few issues (at least the music is nice and you don’t have to listen to me!)

Lee Harvey Oswald - part 1 These are the facts about Oswald that connected his motives and his actions to the CIA, the FBI and the most radical of the anti-communists.

Lee Harvey Oswald - part 2 More evidence, confirming the fact that Oswald had worked for both the CIA and the FBI.

Did the driver do it? Sadly, there are numerous crackpots on Youtube promoting “theories” like this. And some people, particularly the younger ones actually believe it.

Dale Myers (or Voodoo Geometry 101) This video examines the tactics of animator Myers, whose nationally televised presentation on the “single bullet theory”, deliberately misrepresented the positions of President Kennedy and Governor Connally, in order to create the appearance that the shot came from the location of Lee Harvey Oswald.

This followup to the first Myers video goes into more detail about how he manipulated the images and why it is important that we understand the correct trajectory of that shot.
