Help Needed

[Bob Prudhomme]

Thanks, Dave. As usual, you have gone above and beyond the call of duty.

Here is the pertinent paragraph from Page 2 of the report:

"Dr. Perry noted the massive wound of the head and a second much
smaller wound of the low anterior neck in approximately the midline.
A tracheostomy was performed by extending the latter wound. At this
point bloody air was noted bubbling from the wound and an injury to
the right lateral wall of the trachea was observed. Incisions were made
in the upper anterior chest wall bilaterally to combat possible
subcutaneous emphysema. Intravenous infusions of blood and saline
were begun and oxygen was administered. Despite these measures
cardiac arrest occurred and closed chest cardiac massage failed to
re-establish cardiac action. The President was pronounced dead
approximately thirty to forty minutes after receiving his wounds.
The remains were transported via the Presidential plane to
Washington, D.C.and subsequently to the Naval Medical School,
National NavalMedical Center,Bethesda, Marylandfor postmortem
examination."

And here is the pertinent sentence from that paragraph that blows away any credibility Humes had as a physician, and puts the lie to the entire autopsy, as well as the Single Bullet Theory.

Incisions were made
in the upper anterior chest wall bilaterally to combat possible
subcutaneous emphysema.

Up next: "Is subcutaneous emphysema a life threatening condition?" or "Would an ER doctor take the time to relieve subcutaneous emphysema on a non-breathing pulseless patient?"
