There is a tremendous amount of conflicting evidence in regards to the headwound/s -- there is tremendous consistency in regard to the back and throat wounds as long as one understands that properly prepared evidence trumps improperly prepared evidence.
Serves the cover-up to direct attention to the most complex data sets.
I think Lifton and Horne have made a good enough case that something needed to be covered-up during the pre-autopsy. At that point a five year old would realize you don't need any precise explanations of the exact wounds. I don't think there's any disagreement here.
My argument is that the headwound/s study, within the JFK Critical Community, has become mono-manical at the expense of the study of the more revealing back/throat wounds.
I think it is and I also think the input you offer here doesn't live up to it or respectfully reflect what it has shown. You've diverted to Wecht but what I was talking about was Horne's collective evidence that showed there was a pre-autopsy designed to hide head wounds. There's no false equivalence involved here because such a drastic manipulation of evidence, as a covert pre-autopsy, is strong evidence in itself that is usually enough to prove guilt. Complexity is no sin as long as the offerer is capable of that complexity, and I think Horne is. But the evidence for the pre-autopsy isn't really that complex anyway. I feel all the evidence in its totality is stronger than just the shirt damage evidence. But if we were to ask what we personally prefered as the single-most example of evidence I would say the brain evidence myself. I think it is much more damning than the shirt evidence personally. It's pure evidence of evidence-tampering and conspiracy. And it's in Horne. Most people are smart enough to dismiss the mastermind stuff while still seeing how Nelson's evidence of Johnson's corruption adds to the real case. The Mafia did it stuff is also uncredible, but they were not uninvolved. It all adds up.
