The Head Wounds Revisited

[David Josephs]

Daniel...

Enjoy reading your posts... and I am proposing in a reply that both Horne and Lifton might be correct.... but first a question..

Rereading Custer/Reed's description of xrays I seem to remember them saying the angle of the head in the "lateral" xray was not horizontal..

Since we do not see a jaw or any frontal bones (nose, cheeks, etc) or the fact that not a single doctor uses the term "FRONTAL BONE"... they say the Temporal, Parietal & Occipital are smashed/gone... but in reality it's the frontal bone that is gone in the xray.

Can you help us orient the xray to the skull to provide the image we see? Is there any chance we are looking at the BACK of the head, straight on as I illustrate below?

Autopsy report
1. There is a large irregular defect of the
scalp and skull on the right involving chiefly the parietal bone but extending somewhat into the
temporal and occipital regions.

And I'd like to ask one more question - the orientation of this xray SAYS "Right side down Head Xray"
Now obviously whatever is resting on that plate/table/whatever is NOT the right side of his head... agree?

Is there any possibility we are looking at a posterior view of JFK here? (This was done quickly for orientation purpose not for exact fit.... but you get my point... with the entrire right side of his head gone and not a soul using the term FRONTAL BONE when it is obvious from the xray if oriented above, that it's the FRONTAL BONE that is missing.. not the parietal.

So this is just a shot in the dark... at this orientation the fragments still run from the right temple to the right rear and some of these fragments might be stuck in the scalp... could Mantik and others be fooled by the orientation?

Thanks
DJ
