Who is Sitting in the Back Seat beside Jackie?

[Bob Prudhomme]

This has been brought up before but never satisfactorily dealt with. Below are four stills from the Zapruder film, z453, z456, z461 and z462, from the tail end of the Zapruder film, showing the limo about to pass under the Triple Underpass.









At this point in time, Nellie and John Connally are lying on the floor of the limo together, and Clint Hill can be seen, in z461 and z456, still clinging precariously to the back of the limo.

Who is the person sitting upright to the right of Jackie's pink clad figure and what is keeping him upright? Better yet, what is keeping his head from flopping over?

You don't suppose Jackie might have pushed JFK upright a bit so that she could sit back down? She was completely out of her seat for a bit there.

Hi Drew

That's about the only explanation that makes any sense. When she climbed out the back, I think he must have fallen down and was lying across the seat, explaining the great amount of blood seen on the seat on her side in the photographs. When she got back in, I can only assume she lifted him up and pushed him back to his side. Are we witnessing her in the very act of doing this?

As I said, I can understand her doing this, as creepy as it seems. I just can't see how his head is remaining erect. It should be flopping over.
