JFK Assassination Documents to be released this year

[FrankO]

Hi Frank,

I'm not referring to timings. You pointed out that the hat was held at shoulder level. How can a descending shot through the back and out the front at about 15cm below the nipple manage to then hit the back of the wrist at shoulder level?

Cheers, George

Hi George,

That's precisely my point - it can't. Therefore, if Connally's wounds were all caused by one bullet only, then that must have happened when he held his right hand lower than the exit wound on his upperbody.

The best,
Frank

Head Games --- The deliberate and fraudulent coverup of President Kennedy's head wound -- Conclusion

PROOF OF THE FAKE AUTOPY PHOTOS .



The wound test

"This particular skull blew out the right side in a manner very similar to the wounds of the President..." ( Testimony of Alfred Olivier, 5 H 89 )


More lies. The right side of the test skull referred to looked nothing like JFK's lateral xray.





It looked nothing like the right side of JFK's head in the autopsy photos.





https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/upl...comparison.png

Dr. Olivier blamed this difference on not having the "limiting scalp" holding the bone in place or the test. ( ibid. ) But if one or any of the controls in an experiment is faulty ( i.e. the gelatin/goat skin couldn't hold the bone in place ), the experiment itself becomes worthless and proves nothing.

Dr. Olivier replicated the scalp by an elaborate method of coating the skull with gelatin and trimming it down to the thickness of the tissues overlying the skull. He then covered it with a goat skin to replicate the scalp. ( 5 H 88 )

This was the way they tested damage on skulls.


Commission Exhibit 860 is the skull is the same skull shown in Exhibit CE 861, albeit with the goat skin attached. It appears that the whole side of the skull was blown out without any damage to the goat skin.




https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/upl...vs-no-skin.jpg


It also appears that the remaining cavity caused by the loss of skull bone is easily detected by the naked eye.




https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/upl..._Vol17_853.jpg


This shows that the gelatin/goat skin combination was "limiting" enough to keep the goat skin on the skull and without any visual damage to the skin. The test also indicates that there was less fragmentation of the skull than is shown in the xray. In the xray, there is massive fragmentation of the rear and the top of the skull.


If the test proved anything, it proved that a shot hitting the skull from behind inflicted a wound quite different from the wound showed in the xrays and photographs. There was no little flap of skull opened on the right side of the head as there was in the autopsy photo. Instead, the whole right side of the skull was blown off. And the fragmentation of the skull was different from that of the xray.


But the Commission's presentation of the xrays as evidence had its own problems.



The Xray problems


Among the problems critics had with the xrays was that missing skull fragments show up in the lateral xray even though they arrived at Bethesda after the skull xrays had been taken.

It's documented that the skull fragments arrived "late during the autopsy", yet the lateral xray, taken before the autopsy began, shows the missing bone intact.

Another problem was that the lateral xray showed a massive wound in the front of the skull above the right eye, not seen on any of the autopsy photos.




https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/upl...rayLateral.jpg




The Warren Commission never published the autopsy photographs and Xrays, so the task of authenticating them fell on the House Select Committee on Assassinations.

Normally, you would think, that the best person to authenticate the Xrays would have been the person responsible for taking them.

But we're talking about the United States Government here. So what they did was to go to an outside source who compared the autopsy Xrays to Xrays in Kennedy's medical history and determined that, yes, the Xrays were of the same person. And that person was John F. Kennedy.

The man who took them at the autopsy, Jerrol Custer, was never asked to authenticate the xrays in evidence as the ones he took. And there's a reason for that:




https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/upl.../11/custer.mp4




Another strange tactic used by the HSCA was to publish the skull xrays with the teeth cropped out.




https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/upl...2/11/xrays.jpg




The HSCA published Xrays of the teeth, but separately from the skull Xrays. The expert who identified the teeth was Dr. Lowell Levine a forensic odontologist experienced in the identification of victims of unnatural death. ( 7 HSCA 39 )

His method involved comparing dental and sinus Xrays of the President taken between 1960 and 1962 and obtained from the Kennedy Library to those taken at the autopsy.

The problem I have with it is that the Committee only published photos of the dental and sinus Xrays received from the Kennedy Library.




https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/upl...CA_Vol7_62.jpg




It did not publish photos of the autopsy Xrays nor did it show any side-by-side comparisons of the two.

As you can imagine, this lack of transparency creates more questions then it answers.

If this was an act of deception by the HSCA, it didn't end there.





The HSCA lies

Among the lies that the House Select Committee withheld from the public was that the autopsy doctors agreed with the Dallas doctors that there was a massive wound at the rear of the President's head. Not only did the Committee not publish the autopsy doctors' location of the head wound, they did not allow the Parkland doctors to view the autopsy photographs and x-rays.




https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/upl...lar_groden.mp4


This suppression and omission of evidence is at the least troubling, at the most conspiratorial proof of a coverup.

The Committee also offered several drawings from professional medical artist Ida Dox, including one that depicted the President's head being shot from behind with the top of his head blowing off and an exit in the front of his skull.




https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/upl...22/10/dox2.jpg



No witness who saw the President's head wound ever described the head wound as depicted in this drawing.

The autopsy photographs and xrays do not support any bone loss at the top of the head.

The Committee never went after descrepancies in the official record, like Dr. Humes' description of an entry wound in the back of the neck and the same wound being described in the Sibert/O'Neill report as being located "below the top of the shoulders". ( ARRB, MD 44, pg. 5 ) It heard from Navy photographer Robert Knudsen, ( ARRB MD 135 ) but never asked him if there had been different versions of autopsy photographs.


It also heard from autopsy witnesses Boyers, Riebe and Custer. It interviewed Paul O'Connor, James Curtis Jenkins and mortician Tom Robinson. In spite of the accounts of all these witnesses, the Committee concluded that there was no evidence that President Kennedy had been shot from the front.


In short, the HSCA avoided investigating the crime properly. Whether or not this was by design is not clear, but for all its work and time spent, it was an effort in futility.



Conclusion

These many years later, the Crime of the 20th Century has still not been satisfactorily closed. The Warren Commission's investigation of the crime began with a forgone conclusion and as such, was actually not an investigation at all but a gathering of evidence to prove one individual was guilty.


In order to achieve that narrative, it had to ignore witnesses who had evidence to the contrary. It had to falsely report what witnesses said and physical evidence that proved the suspect was innocent simply vanished into thin air.


The House Select Committee's investigation was no more a success in finding the truth. Like the Warren Commission, it too started with a forgone conclusion that organized crime was behind the assassination. Sadly, it was less an investigation than it was a stage show.


In the end, it concluded that the President was probably killed as a result of a conspiracy that involved Oswald. But it failed to name his co-conspirators and to bring indictments against them.


The release of records by the Assassination Records Review Board in the 1990s revealed that, like the Warren Commission, the HSCA suppressed testimony and failed to pursue evidence that was presented to it.


Evidence from witnesses like James Chaney, one of the Dallas motorcycle officers who flanked the right rear of the Presidential limousine. In an interview right after the assassination, he said that he saw the President struck "in the face".




https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/upl...mes-chaney.mp4


Neither the Warren Commission nor the House Select Committee ever called James Chaney.


Perhaps the most damaging testimony to the authenticity of the autopsy photos was that of Saundra Kay Spencer, the Naval Photographic Center technician who developed the autopsy photos.


She told the ARRB that the autopsy photos in the National Archives were not the autopsy photos she processed. She testified that the images in the photos were not the same, the backgrounds were different, there were no photos of the autopsists taking measurements and the paper used for the Archives' photos is not the same paper she used at NPC in 1963. ( ARRB testimony of Saundra Kay Spencer, 6-5-97 )


Equally interesting was the revelation by Xray tech Jerrol Custer that his superior, Dr. John Ebersol told him that a "bust" was being prepared of JFK. ( ARRB testimony of Jerrol Custer, 10.28.97, pg. 144 )

Was this "bust" superimposed on the real autopsy photo to create the "Superior" photos ?




https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/upl.../11/suprof.jpg



There's an old saying that, "the government cannot investigate itself". Two Federal "investigations" into the assassination of President Kennedy have produced no level of satisfactory closure.


There were many tragedies that came from this assassination. The President was dead and his family destroyed. His wife was a widow and his kids fatherless. His brother never recovered from his loss.

There was the similar tragedy of the Oswald family, leaving Marina Oswald a widow and her kids growing up in someone else's house. And the stigma of being related to a man who history says killed the President of the United States.

Then there are the tragedies of the 58,000 American families who lost a loved one in Vietnam, a war Kennedy was preparing to pull out of.

Perhaps the greatest tragedy of all is that something else died that Friday afternoon in November : the truth.


Over the years, many Americans have lost trust in what their govenment says. And the government has earned that distrust. It all began here, with the lie that one man, firing from behind, killed a President he admired for no apparent reason.

We may never know for sure WHO was behind the assassination. People have their theories, of course.

But what we CAN do is to expose the original "investigation" for what it was--- a fraud.

An attempt to satisfy the public that "Oswald was the sole assassin, that he had no confederates who are still at large, and the evidence was such that he would have been convicted at trial."


To this end, the government institutions which we trust failed us. The FBI never conducted a normal homicide investigation but rather collected evidence against one man.

The Secret Service, who was responsible for the President's life, played a major role in the coverup of his assassination. It removed the President's body from Texas illegally. It harassed the Parkland witnesses and controlled evidence like the President's limo, the President's corpse and the autopsy photos and Xrays.

The US Military played a role in the coverup as well, choosing inexperienced administrators to perform the most important autopsy of the 20th century, administrators they could control and keep silent.



https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/upl...autopsists.mp4


Only when we have the courage to look into the darkness and expose its evil can we be sure that this will never ever happen again. And while there are some who are afraid to look into that darkness for fear of what they may see, there are still those of us brave enough to to bring to light how the hate of the security apparatus for President Kennedy allowed the assassination and the lies they perpetrated in order to cover up their complicity.


DONT BE AFRAID OF THE TRUTH , IT WONT HURT A BIT.

MORE COVERUPS FROM THE WARREN COMMISSION CONSPIRACY GROUP




Evidence of Deception Regarding President Kennedy's Back Wound

https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/rydberg2.jpg

"During the autopsy at Bethesda Naval Hospital another bullet hole was observed at the base of the back of President Kennedy's neck slightly to the right of his spine which provides further enlightenment as to the source of the shots. The hole was located approximately 5 1/2 inches ( 14 centimeters ) from the tip of the right shoulder joint and approximately the same distance below the tip of the right mastoid process, the bony point immediately behind the right ear." ( Report pgs. 88-89 )



No piece of evidence in this case screams "deception" louder than the President's non-fatal back wound. That deception mainly concerned the destruction of Dr. Humes' original autopsy notes and then re-writing of his autopsy report which misrepresented of the location of the wound. But the autopsy photographs indicate that the prosectors were quite clever in the manner of how they handled the body when taking measurements.


Deceptive measurements

Using the mastoid process and the acromion as measuring points was brilliant from a deception standpoint. The mastoid process is the bony structure behind the ear and by being part of the head, is easily moved as the head moves.

The Acromion is top outer edge of the shoulder blade and is also easily moved by moving the shoulder up and down.

https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/mastoid-acromion.jpg

Dr. Cyril Wecht, Director of the Institute of Forensic Sciences at Duquesne University School of Law and Chief Forensic Pathologist of Allegheny County ( PA ) wrote in a letter dated February 10, 1967 :

"the acromion and/or the mastoid process are not customarily or routinely used by forensic pathologists as landmarks in pinpointing the location of bullet wounds on the body. Therefore, on must ask why these points were used by the pathologists who performed the autopsy on President Kennedy." ( Accessories After the Fact, Sylvia Meagher, 1967, pg. 141 )

Dr. Wecht's point is not only well taken, it's a proven fact.

When we look at Oswald's autopsy ( CE 1981 ), also a murder that involved a gunshot wound to the torso, we see that the measurements were taken from the top of the head and the midline of the body.

https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/WH_Vol24_7-8-osw-autopsy.jpg

Using the mastoid process and the Acromion as landmarks is ridiculous because neither one is stationary and both can be moved easily to produce whatever measurement is required.

And the evidence indicates that that's exactly what they did.


Forcing the head backward

The below graphic shows how the distance between a fixed location ( bullet hole B ) and the mastoid process ( A ) is shortened when the head is tilted backward.

https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/neck-back.jpg

If measurements are taken while the head is tilted backwards, not only is the distance going to be shorter than it really is, when the head is returned to its normal position, the "B" position will move up closer to the reference point "A".

This is what they did to President Kennedy. They jerked his head all the way back to take measurements and one of the autopsy photos shows the creases in his neck as a result of the head's forced position.

https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/neck-forced-back.jpg

By using these false measurements in the 1964 drawings done by Harold Rydberg, it created the fallacy that the wound was in the base of the President's neck rather than below the top of his shoulders, as seen in the autopsy photo.

https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/BE5_HI2.jpg

It also substantiated Humes' re-written autopsy report that located the wound was in the "base of the right side of the neck". ( 16 H 983 )

This was not supported by the autopsy photos, the autopsy face sheet, the death certificate, the clothes of the President or the testimony of witnesses.


Exposing the Deception

Any deception regarding the location of the President's back wound begins and ends with Commander Humes.

Dr. J. Thornton Boswell assisted Humes in the autopsy and on his face sheet is the correct location of the back wound.

https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/boswell-original.png

I say correct because the prosectors did not find out about a bullet wound in the throat until Saturday morning, long after the body had left the morgue.


In his testimony, Dr. Humes admitted that he had not spoken with Dr. Perry about the tracheotomy until Saturday morning and that's when he found out about the wound in the throat.

Humes testified that, "he had done a tracheotomy and as a point to perform his tracheotomy he used a wound which he interpreted as a missile wound in the low neck, as the point through which ot make his tracheotomy incision."

Mr. SPECTER. When did you have that conversation with him, Dr. Humes ?
Commander HUMES. I had that conversation with him early on Saturday morning, sir.
Mr. SPECTER. On Saturday morning November 23d ?
Commander HUMES. That is correct, sir. ( 2 H 362 )

Humes never saw the wound in the front of the throat. He assumed it was a tracheotomy and never examined it. By the time he found out it was a tracheotomy made through a bullet wound, the body was gone and there was no chance of examining it.


The document problem

The location of the back wound on Dr. Boswell's original face sheet, showing the back wound to be below the top of the shoulders, is corroborated by other evidence.

President Kennedy's personal physician, Dr. George Burkley's death certificate describes the location of the wound at "about the level of the third thoracic vertebra". ( red dot )

https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/third-throacic.jpg

The report of the two FBI agents present during the autopsy, James Sibert and Frank O'Neill, reported that "Dr. Humes located an opening which appeared to be a bullet hole which was below the shoulders and two inches to the right of the midline of the spinal column." ( ARRB MD 44, pg. 5 )


The clothing problem
More corroboration of a bullet hole below the top of the shoulders comes from the physical evidence provided by Kennedy's shirt and jacket. Both show bullet holes well below the top of the shoulders.

https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/shirt-and-coat.png

It becomes more apparent when you look at the President's shirt from the front. It becomes obvious that the bullet hole is well below the top of the shoulders and well below the knot of the tie.

https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/williamson1-1993.jpg

In his own testimony to the Warren Commission, Dr. Humes testified that the holes in the President's coat and shirt were 6 inches below the top of the collar. ( 2 H 365 )

The FBI also measured the holes in the back of the President's shirt and coat and found that the hole in the coat was 5 3/8" below the collar and the hole in the shirt was 5 3/4" below the top of the collar. It reasoned that the 3/8" difference was due to the shirt collar "sticking up above the coat about a half an inch." ( 5 H 60 )

This was in conflict with Humes' autopsy report that located the "neck" wound only 5 1/2 inches ( 14 cm ) below the tip of the right mastoid process. ( 16 H 980 )

https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/mastoid-process-collar.jpg

As anyone can see, the mastoid process is well ABOVE the top of the collar, meaning that any measurement below the top of the collar using the mastoid as a reference point should be greater than the measurement to the top of the collar.

Unless, of course, you jerk the head backwards to take your measurements. Which is what they did.

Humes tried to explain the discrepancy by saying the Kennedy was waving to the crowd and this waving process caused the coat and shirt to rise up. ( 2 H 366 )

He used Commission Exhibit 396 to prove his point. But CE 396 shows the President with his elbow resting on the body of the car and his hand raised.

https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/WH_Vol17_28-CE396.jpg

Here's JFK with his arm up on the car. As you can see, his shirt and coat are certainly not "bunched up" enough to align the holes in the shirt and coat with the hole in the back.

https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/clothing.png

Not only was the hole in the President's back too low to have exited just below his Adam's apple, the path of the bullet that caused it was estimated at 45-60 degrees DOWNWARD. ( ARRB MD 44, pg. 5 )

Researcher Paul Lee shows exactly how ridiculous the amount of "bunching up" the jacket and shirt had to do in order for the bullet holes to line up.

https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/jacket-hole.jpg

In addition, the FBI's photos of the front of the President's shirt deliberately hid the fact that the bullet hole was too low to make the throat wound by making sure the shirt was closed enough so the hole wouldn't show from the front.

https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/front-of-shirt-comparison.jpg

The FBI's photographs of the shirt and coat were omitted from the Warren Commission exhibits.

And there was another problem for the Commission : the bullet that made the holes in that clothing never transited the body.


Lack of a track
It is a complete and utter impossibility for a bullet to travel through a human body and not leave a bullet track in its wake.

In this case, the prosectors tried to probe the back wound and could not.

Dr. Humes testified to the Commission that, "attempts to probe in the vicinity of this wound were unsuccessful without fear of making a false passage." ( 2 H 361 )

He further testified that, "we were unable, however, to take probes and have them satisfactorily fall through any definite path at this point." ( ibid. )

In his deposition to the ARRB, Col. Pierre Finck was asked about probing the back wound:

Q: Did you insert a probe into the wound in the back ?

A: From what I remember, we tried at the time. It was unsuccessful. ( ARRB deposition of Pierre A. Finck, MD, 5.24.96, pg. 92 )

When questioned about the probing, Dr. J. Thornton Boswell told the ARRB that it went in a "very short distance. Three inches about." ( ARRB depsoition of Dr. J. Thornton Boswell, 2.26.96, pg. 119 )

In their 11/26/63 report on the autopsy, FBI agents Sibert and O'Neill said that the back wound was "probed by Dr. Humes with the finger" and that "further probing determined that the distance travelled by this missile was a short distance inasmuch as the end of the opening could be felt with the finger." ( ARRB MD 44, pg. 5 )

Their report went on to say that, "no bullet could be found in the back" and that inspection revealed there was "no point of exit". ( ibid. )

This evidence indicates that an attempt was made to probe the back wound that and attempt revealed that the bullet that caused it penetrated only a short distance, so short that its end could be felt with the fingertip.

This unsuccessful probing proves that the bullet did not transit the body and that there was no connection between the back wound and the wound in the President's throat.

Conclusion
On page 2 of the FBI's Supplemental Report dated January 13, 1964, the report reads, "there was a small hole in the back of his shirt and coat approximately six inches below the collar."

The Report goes on, "the bullet that entered his back had penetrated to a distance of less than a finger length."

Secret Service Agent Clint Hill testified that he saw the back wound at Bethesda after the autopsy was completed, as the morticians were preparing it to be placed in the casket. He described its location as, "about 6 inches below the neckline to the right hand side of the spinal column." ( 2 H 143 )

Secret Service Agent Glen Bennett was on the running board of the followup car and reported that he saw a "shot hit the President about 4 inches down from the right shoulder". ( 18 H 760 )

None of the physical evidence and none of the witnesses' descriptions corroborate a wound at the base of the neck.

None.

But that didn't stop the House Select Committee on Assassinations from publishing a drawing of JFK depicting his position as the bullet transited his body. It was a most ridiculous rendering, showing Kennedy leaning forward and the bullet entering his back above the shoulder at the level of the 7th cervical vertebra.

https://gil-jesus.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/HSCA-JFK-neck2-6-43.jpg

The truth is that the witnesses were correct that the wound was below the top of the shoulders. The autopsy photo shows the wound below the top of the shoulder. The death certificate indicates the wound was below the top of the shoulder. The autopsy face sheet shows that the wound was below the top of the shoulder.

All of this evidence is correct. The wound was below the top of the shoulder.

Humes had been confused because there were no bullets in the body and the back wound had not penetrated very far. The FBI called their office and found out a bullet had been found on a stretcher in Parkland Hospital. Humes assumed that that was the bullet that had made the wound in the back and had fallen out during cardiac massage.

I suggest that this is what was in his original autopsy notes, which he destroyed.

The deception began on Saturday morning, when Dr. Humes spoke to Dr. Perry on the phone and found out that there had been a bullet wound in the throat, a wound that he missed.

Dr. Humes gleaned from Dr. Perry any and all information regarding Dr. Perry's observations of the throat wound and the damage to the surrounding area, including the trachea.

"Dr. Humes concluded that the missile that entered the upper back had traversed the body and exited in the anterior portion of the neck although he had not observed...any such hole during the examination of the body." ( 7 HSCA 16 )

How is that even possible ? How on earth can anyone conclude that a wound is a wound of exit if they've never even seen it ? How can you tell the direction of the bullet if you never saw the exit wound ?

You can't. It's all an assumption.

And it was an assumption that was not supported by the President's clothing, the witness observations and the documentation presented prior to Dr. Perry telling him of a bullet wound in the throat.

All of the evidence prior to that Saturday morning phone call to Dr. Perry is correct.

All of the evidence obtained after that is false.

[FISHY1118]

Tomlinson's WC testimony starts on page 128 of Volume 6. He's asked about the elevators, the stretchers and even of the construction of the stretchers. But he's never shown CE 399 and asked to identify it as the bullet he found. Why not ?

https://www.history-matters.com/archive/jfk/wc/wcvols/wh6/html/WC_Vol6_0069b.htm

And what of the others who handled the stretcher bullet ?

Why wasn't O.P. Wright ever called to give testimony ?

Why wasn't SS agent Richard Johnson ever called to give testimony ?

SS Chief James Rowley gave almost 40 pages of testimony.

Why wasn't he shown CE 399 and asked to identify it as the bullet he handled ?


More lies and coverups from the phoney Warren Commision Conspiracy group



These people were lawyers and prosecutors. In addition, they pre-interviewed witnesses and knew exactly what the witnesses were going to say in advance of their testimony. They knew EXACTLY what they were doing. They avoided asking them to identify the bullet because they knew they wouldn't. Same goes for not calling Wright and Johnsen. If it was an innocent mistake, they would have called them back to get their sworn testimony on the record. Several witnesses made more than one appearance. I believe that it's much more likely that they tried to pull a fast one, but some junior staffer realized they hadn't established a chain-of-possession and made it known.

It was declared to be the "stretcher bullet" by Melvin Eisenberg, during his questioning of Robert Frazier on page 428 of Volume III :

"Mr. Frazier, I now hand you Commission Exhibit 399, which, for the record, is a bullet, and also for the record, it is a bullet that was found in the Parkland Hospital following the assassination."

Since when does legal counsel get to determine what is evidence by proclamation ?

Who testified that this bullet was found at Parkland Hospital ? Who identified it ?

No one. Eisenberg's proclamation that this was the bullet found in Parkland Hospital was not based on any document or testimony.

This bullet has no certifiable chain-of-possession prior to its being in the possession of FBI agent Elmer Todd.

And for that reason, if I were Oswald's lawyer, I would have gotten this "evidence" thrown out at trial.
