Inexplicable Wounds made by Special Bullets

[Bob Prudhomme]

First off, let's list the wounds. The way I describe them, and their causes, has no basis in fact or proven evidence, just like everything else in this case but, for the sake of this thread, I am assigning properties to them that I feel have the highest probability, and are supported by basic logic and the descriptions by witnesses.

1. The back wound on JFK. Popular consensus shows this wound to be 5.75" below JFK's collar line, and 1.5-2" to the right of the spinal midline. This would place the wound at about the level of thoracic vertebra T3. It also lined the bullet up to enter the top of JFK's right lung. Needless to say, I believe this to be an entrance wound.
2. The throat wound on JFK. As described by PH doctors, the wound was in the lower third of the anterior neck, just slightly to the right of midline. The wound involved the right side of JFK's trachea (windpipe). For the sake of argument, an entrance wound.
3. The first head wound on JFK. As described by Bethesda autopsists, this wound was just to the right of the external occipital protuberance, a small bony projection at the base of the rear of the skull. Entrance wound.

4. The second head wound on JFK. Various sources place this wound at the right temple, just inside the hairline. Entrance wound.
5. The third head wound on JFK. As described in early reports from PH doctors and other sources, this was a 3-5" diameter wound located at the right rear of JFK's head. As described by Bethesda autopsists, a skull fragment brought into the autopsy had half a bullet hole in it, with the fragment matching up to the large hole, and the half bullet hole matching a half bullet hole on bone adjacent to the large wound.
6. Back wound on John Connally. According to PH records, this bullet struck JBC's back just to the right of the lower end of JBC's right shoulder blade. It did not enter the chest cavity but, rather, followed the outside of a rib around the chest, shattering the rib in the process. Entrance wound.
7. Chest wound on JBC. This was made by the bullet that struck JBC in the back, and it exited soft tissue just below JBC's right nipple. Exit wound.
8. Wrist wound on JBC. Medical records from PH show a bullet struck the dorsal aspect (back) of the lower third of JBC's right forearm. It struck on the radial side of the dorsal aspect, shattering the radius bone in the process. Entrance wound.
9. Second wrist wound on JBC. This wound was on the volar (palm) side of the lower third of JBC's right forearm, and was supposedly made by the same bullet (or fragment of) that made wound #8. This was a through and through wound through the soft tissue between the radius and ulna bones of the lower third of JBC's right forearm. Exit wound.
10. Thigh wound on JBC, This was a shallow wound on the inside of JBC's left thigh, with no exit. Entrance wound.
11. Cheek wound on James Tague. Tague was standing under the Triple Overpass. This wound was minor and was likely caused by a chip of flying concrete,
dislodged from the curb ahead of Tague by a bullet or fragment of a bullet. Entrance wound, barely.

More tomorrow. G'night.
