So that's your answer to the fact that, as late as April 1964, even the three autopsy doctors insisted that Connally's wrist must have been struck by a separate bullet because they knew that the wrist bone is one of the hardest bones in the body and that CE 399 could not have shattered that bone without incurring significant damage?

Does the fact that the WC's own ballistics tests confirmed this mean anything to you?

 ???

The WC's own ballistics tests show that a full on strike of a full speed bullet absolutely devastates the nose of the bullet along with the wrist bone whereas a considerably slowed bullet like CE399 after penetrating the soft tissue of Kennedy's neck and Connally's torso, only created a minor fracture, also note that the tiny amount of recovered lead fragments and those seen in the wrist and thigh Xrays corresponds to the tiny amount of missing lead from CE399.



Btw how would a bullet going in nose first embed small lead particles in Connally's wrist, wouldn't a bullet need to be tumbling and hit rear end first? And wouldn't a tiny amount of lead need to be extruded first like what would happen after a tumbling bullet entered Connally's back which created the elongated entrance hole and then subsequently after striking bone side on, would leave a bullet viewed end on with 1 flat surface?



Within the first hour after the assassination and considering the damage to both Kennedy and Connally, who could possibly know to plant a whole bullet that Tomlinson later reinforced it's completeness by saying the "bullet rolled out", that only after an exhaustive medical investigation would be completely consistent with the amount of missing lead from CE399?

Mr. TOMLINSON. I bumped the wall and a spent cartridge or bullet rolled out that apparently had been lodged under the edge of the mat.
Mr. SPECTER. And that was from which stretcher?

Sigh. . . .  Once again, yet again, once more you are repeating arguments that have long since been refuted. Yes, the nurses used scalpels. Dr. Carrico stated that this was "the usual practice" in an emergency, and one of the nurses who helped cut JFK's clothing confirmed to Henry Hurt that the nurses made those slits and the nick in the tie knot.

I have no doubt that Kennedy's shirt and jacket were cut for easier removal but maybe you can explain how making a small half inch or so slit in the neck area helped with the removal of his shirt?

Thanks Bill, that's an interesting self explanatory GIF.

Nelly said she washed it. Dumb move.
Nelly washed Connally's suit?

The holes are not aligning perfectly because the animator didn't center vertically the button-hole with the button.

Like I say about the WC: Close enough!

No. I was talking about the shirt. From memory, I thought she had washed it. Freeman was, unsurprisingly & in true CTer fashion, playing it a little loose with what I had actually said.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATE: I just double checked my original post and found that I did say suit, not shirt. My bad.
And my apologies to Tonkovich & Freeman
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Turns out she had it cleaned before handing it over for an exhibition
