“At a minimum, it shows the two people on the back seat are not standing nor holding the sizable AR-15. Certainly no one has their butt above the fold-down top.”
Looks to me like they are not sitting in seats, but sitting on the backrests of the seats. And I can’t see if Hickey is holding anything or not.
“They heard the gunshot reports. Just before or after the head shot, a siren came on so they would have been less likely to hear the sound of the acceleration of the two heavy stretch-limos. How much gunpowder smell does one little AR-15 round produce to fill up Elm Street?”
I am not sure if one shot would fill up Elm Street or not, I don’t know how it disperses. So it’s likely it mixed with exhaust fumes. But I can’t ever remember car exhaust smelling like gunpowder.
“Depends on whether one trusts Donahue's placement of Kennedy's head.”
I haven’t seen anyone shoot it down and he was an expert witness so I am sure he would know what he it talking about. I think it was Donahue that said the holes in the skull are always larger than the bullet.
Another thought I had is an M16 would not be a snipers choice. They are bush guns, with short barrels and not likely in wide distribution back in those days. First time I saw an M16 was in the Army in the spring of 66 and at that time the Army was using the M14 in Viet Nam. So I can’t imagine a civilian would have one in 63.
