They wind up facing each other. If that bullet hit JFK (he, Connally, and Jackie has already started reacting), and passed between the cop and the SS, then the bullet would track back a particular direction...
It does not appear to me that the Dal-tex Building or the intersection of Elm and Houston would be in line with a bullet that passed between the SS guys on the starboard side, and the motorcycle cop on the same side, and went on to strike JFK.
I wonder if the cop on the motorcycle on the right hand side of the limo is looking back in response to the sound of a bullet, or if he is looking back at JFK?
Mr. HILL. The right rear portion of his head was missing. It was lying in the rear seat of the car. His brain was exposed. There was blood and bits of brain all over the entire rear portion of the car. Mrs. Kennedy was completely covered with blood. There was so much blood you could not tell if there had been any other wound or not, except for the one large gaping wound in the right rear portion of the head.
