What is James Chaney Looking Back at?

[Bob Prudhomme]

Hi James

I agree with you, the matter of Chaney passing the limo, in order to alert Curry in the lead car, is an important puzzle that simply will not go away.

However, I have found that merely mentioning this matter on JFK forums is enough to draw instant ridicule, despite the indisputable fact that so many high ranking officials testified to the fact that Chaney arrived with the news at the lead car well before the limo arrived there. I believe the reason for this is that the possibilities this raises simply stagger the imagination of the average man. If Chaney actually did pass the limo, there are a great number of films and photos that had to be altered to conceal this fact.

That being said, there remains people, like you and I, who simply cannot dismiss a possibility because of its outrageousness. This means we also accept the limo stop and the large back of head wound despite evidence to the contrary, simply because too many witnesses reported these same things and were virtually unanimous in their descriptions.

As Sir Arthur Conan Doyle so aptly said, "When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth".

Hey, I don't necessarily disagree with this. Chaney could be shooting forward because Greer is applying the brakes. Chaney could have kept his gaze on JFK after Altgens 6 and still have caught the head (face) shot.

According to the Nix film, this is the position of the motorcycles just after the head shot:
