Phantom Shot

[Bob Mady]

For a bullet travelling from a highly elevated shooting position, entering JFK's back below the shoulder line and exiting above the shoulder line, it would necessarily have to change course inside the body, implying that it hit something, or that a great deal of its rotational inertia had been converted from spin to yaw (which implies a rather larger loss of velocity than is allowed by the SBT). If you put the back shooter in a less elevated position the physics of the bullet's alleged flight path thru JFK's body is a lot less problematic.

How the bullet then resumes a downward course to strike Connally is another matter.

Given the back wound location and the front wound location, why does it make any difference if the bullet went in one side or the other, by necessity either way the path is the same.

Did the bullet strike the vertebrae or not?
Does it matter?

Was it really autopsied to know for sure?
