On The Trail Of Delusion

[Jerry Organ]

I wonder who "blacked out" the back of JFK's head in the top left photo.

Probably because the flash bulb is on the top of the camera and that part of Kennedy's head you allege is "blacked out" is very oblique to the flash source and thus not lit up well.



In this picture, the head is re-positioned and that same "blacked out" (LOL) area now appears less oblique to the flash source and is therefore better lighted.

But nice try.

Nothing blacked out here.



X-rays of head. Nothing missing from the back. Skull fracture lines, according to forensic pathologist, indicate a shot from the rear with the lines radiating outward from there.

"JFK Revisited" Misleads on JFK's Throat Wound
Oliver Stone's so-called documentary, JFK Revisited: Through the Looking Glass, misleads on JFK's throat wound. The film alleges that it is an entrance wound. The preponderance of evidence indicates that it is a wound of exit.

The film doesn't allege anything. It just shows what witnesses said and notes how witnesses and documents contradict the Warren Report:


Dallas, Nov. 22 -

Later in the afternoon, Dr. Malcolm Perry, an attending surgeon, and Dr. Kemp Clark, chief of neurosurgery at
Parkland Hospital, gave more details.

Mr. Kennedy was hit by a bullet in the throat, just below the Adam's apple, they said. This wound had the appearance of a bullet's
entry.

Mr. Kennedy also had a massive, gaping wound in the back and on the right side of the head. However, the doctors said it was
impossible to determine immediately whether the wounds had been caused by one bullet or two.

11/23/63 Dallas - Dr. Malcolm Perry said "there was an entrance wound below his Adam's apple. There was another wound in the back of
his head."

Now why did you hijack your own thread about the backyard photos?
Now the discussion is the sniper shots?

[Andrew Mason]

Dale Myers says the angle is about 17.5 degrees (http://www.jfkfiles.com/jfk/html/concl2.htm ). He puts the SBT at Z224.

Yes, but Myers does not provide the data on which his numbers are based. 

[Gerry Down]

Yes, but Myers does not provide the data on which his numbers are based.

Well I don't know who's right. I'm just saying there is a discrepancy.

Where did Richard Smith go, after I destroyed his pet theory that Marina wrote the Russian text on the back of the DeMohrenschildt's BY photo?

from Marina's HSCA deposition on September 20, 1977

https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/jfkinfo4/jfk12/marinade.htm 

Q. Did you ever write anything on the back of either the original or a copy of one of these photographs?
A. No.
Q. Did you ever write a note or anything to George de Mohrenschildt on the back of the original or a copy?
A. No.
Q. Are you sure of that?
A. Yes.

It was nearly a week ago since he last posted in this thread. Could it be that Marina's HSCA testimony finally managed to shut him up to re-think the BS he has been writing?

Or did he simply do a "Bill Brown" and ran away after being confronted with evidence he can't deal with?

Is the Famous Photo of Lee Harvey Oswald Posing with the Gun Used to Kill JFK a Fake?: 3D Forensic Analysis Reveals the Answer

As long as the 20th century remains in living memory, the assassination of President John F. Kennedy will continue to draw public interest. A great many Americans feel they still haven’t heard the “whole story” behind what happened on November 22, 1963; a few have dedicated their lives to finding out, growing less inclined to accept the possibility of a lone gunman the deeper they get into the documents. But that gunman, Lee Harvey Oswald, does figure directly into some of the material held up as evidence of a conspiracy. Take the “backyard photos” that depict him posing with what was ultimately found to be the very gun used to kill JFK.

Such images would seem strongly to implicate Oswald in the assassination, and the Warren Commission seems to have regarded them in just that way. But for nearly six decades now, some theorists have argued that the backyard photos are fake — an idea that began with Oswald himself, who before his own assassination insisted that he’d never seen them in his life, and that someone had “superimposed” his face onto another body.

The Vox video above lays out the main elements of one particular picture that have been called repeatedly into question: the angles of the shadows, the shape of Oswald’s chin, the length of the gun, and Oswald’s unusual posture.

“In the 1960s and 1970s, forensic experts tried just about everything to test the authenticity of this photo,” says the video’s narrator. They couldn’t find any evidence of fakery, but they didn’t have the 21st-century technology at the command of the UC Berkeley School of Information’s Hany Farid, a well-known specialist in the analysis of digital images. Farid and a team of researchers reconstructed Oswald’s body and weaponry (though not the copies of The Militant and The Worker, two ideologically opposed newspapers, he brandished in his other hand) and found that everything added up, from the seemingly misaligned shadows cast by the sun to the stability of his odd stance. If there
was indeed a conspiracy to kill JFK, then, it wasn’t a conspiracy of proto-Photoshoppers.
