Hey Patrick, more questions if you don't mind.
Why would JFK want to fake a throat wound before faking his own death?
If there was a device to cause the sound of a shot in the roses given to Jackie at Love Field how would she not notice that something is wrong here? Was it metal? Was there a timer?
You also stated that one of the devices placed in the car caused a the hole in the windshield. Would the trajectory of that
shrapnel from inside the limo fit ... to cause Tague's minor wound down the street?
I do not have answers for all the questions for sure.
I think that original plan was not to fake throat wound but chest wound. After the first device was activated, JFK acted like hit, like he wanted to rip his tie and shirt out of pain. When they were planing everything, they most probably decided to have at least two "shots" to be more realistic.
Jackie knew what was going on but she was not aware the devices were too powerful. I believe they tried everything before Dallas. The devices were activated remotely, I believe by Dark-Complected Man who was never identified.
I did not stated that parts of the device caused hole in the windshield but on the inner windshield frame. That is the famous damage near the right sun visor.
