Quote:I think David Lifton should weigh in on this. Another key piece of the puzzle: no photograph clearly shows the brain inside the head. If the brain were there and if the wounds at Bethesda were no different from Parkland, why would Stringer et al. have photographed it? I would surmise the first thing the plotters did was to remove the brain from the head and search for bullets. Later it was reintroduced, because Metzler tells Lifton that at the 8:00 opening of the casket at least part of the brain was evident in the cranial vault. So at what time did O'Connor witness the opening of the shipping casket, the body bag, and the empty cranial vault? Before Kellerman's arrival at 7:30? If you say an hour later, that would be hard to figure because an hour after the body arrived in the shipping casket is about the time it had to be reinserted into the Dallas casket to be brought in by the honor guard. Trying to make sense of this is difficult. Could the shipping casket have come in early, the body brutally altered, the brain removed, and then reinserted into the body bag for O'Connor , Humes, Boswell and others to see. O'Connor(p. 603)in Best Evidence indicates that Humes and Boswell were surprised by the extent of the wounding. O'Connor: "everybody was really aghast." Perhaps a third unknown party did the mutilation before the O'Connor opening. That would accord with the account of an unknown doctor firing into the skull.As I understand it...
O'Connor does not see the unwrapped head at 6:40 when the shipping casket is opened and JFK is placed on the table...
He and the other three are asked to leave and are not reintroduced into the pciture until after 8pm.
O'Connor sees the PRE AUTOPSY SURGERY on the Skull RESULTS as does everyone else who is amazed by the desctruction seen.
Kellerman leaves the navy ambulance and Greer out front when they arrive at 6:55-7pm...
When Sibert and O'Neill and Greer get to the morgue at 7:15 they are met by Kellerman at the morgue entrance - he has been in the morgue, knows JFK is in there and the casket is empty.
When these four men (and possibly a corpsman named Annan) brought the casket into the anteroom... the FBI was dismissed.
Humes, Kenney, Boswell and Ebersole are involved in the alteration from 6:45 until about 7:45 when Robinson is moved to a different location to "wait for the body" but the "body never came"
We theorize that this is when the body is reintroduced into the large casket and put back into "A" Navy ambulance... whether this is the one Galloway gets into and drives off to begin the keystone cops chase is unknown.
Now, when the MDW brings in the LARGE casket JFK is wtapped in sheets... (the testimony of Lipsey and the Admiral who sees a bullet fall out of his clothes creates yet another scenario that, IMO, was created and described as a genuine decoy operation... whether Wehle or Lipsey was aware of what was happening is also unknown... yet)
"Lipsey mentioned that he and Wehle then flew by helicopter to Bethesda and took JFK into the back of Bethesda."
I suggest reading MD180 to get a better picture of what occurs in the morgue from 6:45 until Robinson leaves....
and I will dig up the references to his being told that autopsy was being moved...
