JFK Case NOT Closed Chapter Previews
Chapter 16
How Advancement in Imaging Proves JFK Autopsy Photos and X-Rays Were Altered to Frame Oswald as a ‘Lone’ Assassin!
As the discovery of DeoxyriboNucleic acid processing (DNA) establishes, cold case crimes are not as cold and unsolvable as they used to be – not even the assassination of President John F. Kennedy nearly 60 years ago.
As of the start of 2022, nearly 190 U.S. prisoners awaiting their death sentences to be carried out have been exonerated of the crimes in large part due to the exact science of DNA matching.
As discussed in JFK Case ‘NOT’ Closed, some crime experts believe that DNA could play a role in a new investigation of the events of 11/22/63, but until then, other modern technologies have emerged that are shedding new light on old evidence in the controversial case.
While chapter 17 details three modern technologies not available in 1963 that are presently being applied to existing evidence in this case with shocking results, it is chapter 16 that highlights what can happen when experts apply a new technique to evidence tucked away in the National Archives.
Dr. David Mantik, a radiation oncologist from California, was the first expert to apply Optical Densitometry (OD) to the JFK autopsy x-rays in the Archives. OD measures light penetration in an x-ray film that more clearly distinguishes lighter substances (bone as an example) from darker substances (air as an example).
By applying OD on hundreds of points on a lateral x-ray film of Kennedy’s skull over nine different visits to the Archives, Dr. Mantik discovered clear alteration of the x-ray “that incriminates Oswald” as a lone assassin.
Dr. Mantik’s stunning discovery is seconded in chapter 13 by Dr. Michael Chesser, an adult neurologist, as well as a study of how medical panels since the Warren Report have mishandled the autopsy x-rays and photographs, done by Dr. Gary Aguilar.
The collective work of the three medical experts, as well as earlier alarm bells raised by forensic pathologist Dr. Cyril Wecht (chapter 2), demonstrate more than blatant incompetence by the surgeons who performed the post mortem on President Kennedy.
Their findings point to x-ray and photo alterations to remove evidence of a second gunman as well as a sinister ongoing cover-up by the U.S. government in support of its own official report that Oswald acted alone.
