JFK Case NOT Closed Chapter Previews
Chapter 2:
The Ignored Warren Commission Ballistic Tests that Disprove its Own ‘Single Bullet’ and ‘Lone Gunman’ Theories!
Pioneer researcher and author Mark Lane was fond of saying:
“The best way to disbelieve the Warren Report is to read it!”
Throughout the entire Warren Report, it is astounding to discover how much exculpatory evidence was dismissed, ignored, altered or suppressed in order to name Lee Oswald as the ‘lone’ assassin of President Kennedy.
Perhaps Lane was perturbed at what he was reading in the 888-page report because as Oswald’s posthumous legal representative hired by Oswald’s mother, he was not allowed to defend the accused ‘lone’ assassin’s interests during the Warren Commission hearings.
Consequently, witnesses could not be cross examined. Rebuttal experts could not be called to testify. Physical evidence was not subject to discovery. Unlike a public trial, the Commission could and did what it pleased with the evidence in this case.
Lawyer and famed forensic pathologist, Dr. Cyril Wecht, likes to refer to ballistic tests the Warren Commission and House Select Committee on Assassinations (HSCA) both attempted to do to prove the validity of the controversial ‘Single Bullet Theory.’ The result?
The ballistic tests went terribly wrong and were thus ignored by both panels in concluding that, despite the failed tests, a single bullet (CE 399) did cause seven non-fatal wounds on Kennedy and Connally, including two major broken bones in the Governor.
So, what’s the problem?
CE 399, causing all this damage, emerged in near pristine condition with only 2.4 grains of metal missing at the nose. Using Oswald’s rifle and same ammunition, bullets fired into the wrist of a cadaver or the chest of a goat to simulate only the rib fracture produced eerily similar results but both bullets emerged way more damaged than CE 399 which allegedly broke both bones and caused five other wounds on the two men.
Had Oswald lived to stand public trial, test results that potentially establish reasonable doubt could not have been ignored or suppressed.
Chapter 2 documents these failed tests and other unfavorable test results, including medical and ballistic tests that could have been done but were remarkably of no interest to the Warren Commission or the HSCA 15 years later.
Since much of this physical evidence is still available, the JFK Case ‘NOT’ Closed book calls for modern advancements in medicine and ballistics be used to conduct tests that the government panels ignored or failed to apply.
