Another disappearing bullet

[Martin Weidmann]

Matt, let's look at what's contained in them verbatum.

From 6/20/64 Airtel to Director, FBI from SAC, Dallas:
https://www.maryferrell.org/showDoc.html?docId=59607#relPageId=29&tab=page

"For information WFO, neither DARRELL C. TOMLINSON, who found bullet at Parkland Hospital, nor O.P.WRIGHT, Personnel officer, Parkland Hospital, who obtained bullet from TOMLINSON and gave to Special Agent RICHARD E. JOHNSON, Secret Service, at Dallas 11/22/63, can identify bullet."

From CE-2011:
https://www.maryferrell.org/showDoc.html?docId=11653#relPageId=3&tab=page

"Tomlinson stated it appears to be the same one he found on a hospital carriage at Parkland Hospital on November 22, 1963, but he cannot positively identify the bullet as the one he found and showed to O.P. Wright."
..............
"He(O.P. Wright) advised he could not positively identify C1 as being the same bullet which was found on November 22, 1963."


As you can see, they say essentially the same thing. That being that neither Tomlinson nor Wright could positively identify the bullet in question.

Yes, essentially the same thing... except for Tomlinson saying "it appears to be the same one he found on a hospital carriage at Parkland Hospital" which is what the WC needed and which I don't believe Tomlinson ever said to anyone. The airtel from SAC Dallas is pretty clear on the subject. Whoever wrote CE 2011 (any idea who wrote it?) didn't get the information about "appears to be the same one" from the airtel, so where did it come from?

Odum denied ever showing the bullet to Tomlinson (like CE 2011 claims) and the latter is on record twice saying that he was only shown a bullet once, by SAC Shanklin about a week after the murder.

One missed completely and hit the pavement behind the car, possibly due to accidentally hitting a traffic signal first

Let me get this straight.  You think this shot hit the pavement behind the car, and also hit the curb that resulted in Tague's injury?

[Matt Grantham]

 That is Ken Rahn's story I believe

These two things aren't contradictory, the curb is made of pavement and is behind the car?

No, James, the curb is not part of the pavement. that's why it's called the curb.

[James Dahl]

No, James, the curb is not part of the pavement. that's why it's called the curb.

Pavement is a material, the sidewalk is also made of pavement

[Ray Mitcham]

Pavement is a material, the sidewalk is also made of pavement

Therefore, the pavement is made of material. Thank you. What intellect.

[John Iacoletti]

But Tague's curb strike was not behind the car at the time of the alleged first shot.
