Oh, so then you're saying that Sturdivan is wrong; that the NAA is NOT
the "Rosetta Stone" proof that Oswald did it, to use Sturdivan's own
description. In that case you're saying that Guinn's stoutest
defenders are wrong. [Say, who's side are you on, anyway?!]

You really hate Lawrence Livermore Lab Ph.D.s who actually know

But of course! And the same people who believed that Johah was in the
belly of a whale for three days will believe that Oswald did it, too.

It's quite amusing to me that you've not touched on any of the
examples I cited of VB's omissions and distortions of evidence. I'm
sure you were just too busy with more important things.

The NAA as Prof. Rahn said was a 'Rosetta Stone' in the case .

a 'Rosetta Stone' does not equate into the 'Rosetta Stone' .

There are upwards of 12 individual 'Rosetta Stone' s , from front to
back , from JFK's back to JBC's thigh , each can and are individually
'Rosetta Stone' s , that in their summation all indicate that the
same
bullet struck both men and as it traversed their body's , while
slowing ,
went fast enough to cause breakage of bone , but not fast enough to
deform the bullet substantially . AAMOF CE-399 is the 'Rosetta Stone'
that proves SBT rocks and rocks the CT boat so violently , CTer's
spend a inordinant amount of time trying to object but , it's so
sweat ,
futility is all they've come up with so far !

>>> "David, there is NO evidence the bullet was found on Connally's stretcher..." <<<


Sure there is. Connally's stretcher just BEING in that hallway is
circumstantial evidence that CE399 was found on CONNALLY'S stretcher.
When coupled with the fact that the occupant (Ronnie Fuller) of the
ONLY OTHER stretcher that is a candidate of producing Bullet CE399 was
most certainly NOT shot with a Mannlicher-Carcano bullet from Oswald's
rifle on 11/22/63 (was he?)....well, the stretcher choices get
narrowed down to a pretty small number -- to one -- Connally's.

Plus: There's Darrell Tomlinson himself, who certainly seemed a tad
bit confused regarding the stretcher issue when he said this to the
Warren Commission:

ARLEN SPECTER -- "Now, Mr. Tomlinson, are you sure that it was
stretcher "A" that you took out of the elevator and not stretcher
"B"?"

DARRELL TOMLINSON -- "Well, really, I can't be positive, just to be
perfectly honest about it, I can't be positive, because I really
didn't pay that much attention to it. The stretcher was on the
elevator and I pushed it off of there and I believe we made one or two
calls up before I straightened out the stretcher up against the wall."

http://mcadams.posc.mu.edu/russ/testimony/tomlinso.htm

>>> "As a result it's difficult to figure out where the bullet came from and what wounds it created." <<<


It's not difficult at all....unless you want to believe in something
quite EXTRAordinary in nature, i.e., either a "planted" bullet or a
"switched" bullet.

And the latter option requires most/many CTers to abandon the notion
that ANY bullet could emerge in very good shape after breaking those
bones in JBC. Because isn't it the conventional theory among many
CTers that WHATEVER bullet was found on WHATEVER stretcher it was
found on, it was an INTACT, UNFRAGMENTED bullet that certainly wasn't
mangled beyond recognition?

And don't extraordinary accusations and theories require some degree
of associated extraordinary PROOF to back them up and make them take
flight?

Or, as Vince B. is wont to say, is the mere accusation and rumor
enough to substitute for proof of bullet-handling
underhandedness? .....

"The conspiracy community regularly seizes on one slip of the
tongue, misunderstanding, or slight discrepancy to defeat twenty
pieces of solid evidence; ...treats rumors, even questions, as the
equivalent of proof; leaps from the most minuscule of discoveries to
the grandest of conclusions; and insists that the failure to explain
everything perfectly negates all that is explained." -- Vincent
Bugliosi; Page xliii of "Reclaiming History" (c.2007)

========

"It is...remarkable that these conspiracy theorists aren't
troubled in the least by their inability to present any evidence that
Oswald was set up and framed. For them, the mere belief or speculation
that he was is a more-than-adequate substitute for evidence." --
Vincent Bugliosi; Page 952 of "Reclaiming History" (c.2007)

========


>>> "Dr. Aguilar has successfully demonstrated that Bugliosi's book fails to answer some of the questions surrounding this bullet {CE399}." <<<


Bugliosi has answered them just fine. And that's because Vince relies
not only on the other "LHO bullet" evidence to prop up the obviousness
regarding CE399 (and all of the other many things that spell out "LHO
Shot JFK With Rifle C2766"), but Vincent also uses ample amounts of
common sense to beat the CTers into the backwoods (where they belong)
with respect to the assassination of John F. Kennedy, too.

Like this short (but sweet) example:

"The whole issue of what stretcher the bullet was found on,
Connally's or some unknown person's, is a giant nonissue. Since we
know that the bullet was fired from Oswald's Carcano rifle, and we
know it wasn't found on Kennedy's stretcher, it had to have been found
on Connally's stretcher." -- Vincent Bugliosi; Page 431 of "Reclaiming
History" (Endnotes CD)(c.2007)


========

By the way, regarding the "admissibility" of certain JFK assassination
evidence, Bugliosi has this to say (although, granted, VB doesn't
mention "CE399" in this passage specifically, but it's worth a look
anyway, coming as it does from a seasoned ex-prosecutor who certainly
knows his "Rules of Law"):

"An argument frequently heard in the conspiracy community is
that Oswald could not have been convicted in a court of law because
the "chain of custody [or possession]" of the evidence against him was
not strong enough to make the evidence admissible in a court of
law. ....

"The first observation I have to make is that I would think
conspiracists...would primarily want to know if Oswald killed Kennedy,
not whether he could get off on a legal technicality.

"Second, there is no problem with the chain of custody of much
of the physical evidence against Oswald, such as the rifle and the two
large bullet fragments found in the presidential limousine.

"Third, and most important on this issue, courts do not have a
practice of allowing into evidence only that for which there is an
ironclad and 100 percent clear chain of custody, and this is why I
believe that 95 percent of the physical evidence in this case would be
admissible.

"I can tell you from personal experience that excluding evidence
at a trial because the chain of custody is weak is rare, certainly the
exception rather than the rule. The typical situation where the chain
is not particularly strong is for the trial judge to nevertheless
admit the evidence, ruling that the weakness of the chain goes only to
"the weight of the evidence [i.e., how much weight or credence the
jury will give it], not its admissibility"." -- Vincent Bugliosi; Page
442 of "Reclaiming History" (Endnotes CD)(c.2007)


========

>>> "This is the kind of essay {the one written by Dr. Gary Aguilar} Bugliosi would have welcomed, prior to publication, should he have been sincerely interested in writing a great book. Instead he hid out and wrote up a prosecutor's brief. Horribly disappointing." <<<


"Reclaiming History" is not disappointing to a reasonable person who
is tired of wading through the incessant, unsupportable theories being
spouted by CTers (and an endless stream of associated CT books).


But, one's man "reasonable" is another man's "horribly
disappointing".

>>> "Oh, so then you're saying that Sturdivan is wrong; that the NAA is NOT the "Rosetta Stone" proof that Oswald did it, to use Sturdivan's own description." <<<


Oh, I definitely disagree (strongly) with that type of "Rosetta Stone"
assessment, to be sure!

If Mr. Sturdivan said that very thing you attribute him as having said
about NAA (I'm not 100% sure, but I'll take your word for it, Gary),
then, yes, I positively think Larry is wrong regarding such a strong
statement.

NAA isn't the "Rosetta Stone", in my opinion. Far from it. Because
common sense ALONE comes very, very close to verifying (for reasonable
people looking at the sum total of the bullet evidence) that no other
bullets struck the two limo victims on Elm Street on November 22. NAA
is merely the icing on an already adequately-iced "All Oswald's
Bullets" cake.

IMO, the "Rosetta Stones" (if I'm allowed to have more than just one
single "Stone") that prove Oswald's guilt (and his almost certain lone
guilt) are the following things:

1.) Rifle C2766 being found on the 6th Floor.

2.) The paper bag (with LHO's prints on it).


More.....


THESE TWO THINGS PROVE LEE HARVEY OSWALD'S GUILT:
www.google.com/group/alt.conspiracy.jfk/msg/909b5b194cab1cbe


3.) Oswald's immediate departure (on foot) from the murder scene.

4.) The Tippit murder.

5.) Oswald's many lies that he told to the police after his arrest
(including the critical lie about the "curtain rods", i.e., LHO
telling police that he had never said a word to Buell Wesley Frazier
about "curtain rods").

>>> "Say, who's [sic] side are you on, anyway?!" <<<


The one marked "CS&L" (Common Sense & Logic). ;)

Which side are you on, Gary? The "Complicate The Uncomplicated" side
perhaps?

>>> "And history has always proven that the FBI lab can be trusted implicitly, hasn't it?" <<<

Which, of course, MUST mean that Hoover and his evil boys (including
the FBI "lab" boys and girls) would fake everything in sight (or pert-
near, per many CTers) when it comes to the assassination of their own
Chief Executive. Right, Gary?

Where's the proof that the FBI "faked" anything in this case? Or that
they hid anything from view in this case (with the one exception of
the Hosty note, which I'll readily admit was flushed down the toilet
in Dallas)?

But why on Earth would Hosty EVER admit to doing such a thing if the
FBI was really "behind" the assassination or the kind of massive
"cover-up" that many conspiracists suspect?

The "Hosty Note" topic reminds me of Dr. James Humes and his example
of truth-telling that backfired on him too. Humes ADMITTED flat-out
(on paper and in front of the WC) that he burned his autopsy notes and
the first rough draft of the autopsy report....and he's then raked
over the hot coals by CTers for telling that hunk of TRUTH.

But why in heck would Humes had ever admitted to burning those items
in his home fireplace (when he really didn't have to admit to any such
burning at all) if he was part of some kind of covert plot or cover-
up?

It's just....silly.

>>> "J. Edgar Hoover was a man of absolute reasonableness, wasn't he?" <<<


No. By all accounts of the man, he was a kook and pretty much a
nutcase. But, so what?

He never liked to make left turns while being driven around (after
being involved in a fender-bender while making a left turn one day),
so he instructed his drivers to never make any left turns ever again
while he was in the car. Must've been fun planning J. Edgar's
excursions after that. ;)

Hoover was a kook in many ways, yes. But does that mean he plotted to
cover up the truth about the murder of his own President?

Plus, as I've said several times in the past, it's fervently my belief
that J. Edgar Hoover would have been anxious and foaming at the mouth
to REVEAL the existence of a conspiracy in the JFK murder, in order to
possibly exonerate Lee Oswald (which would have certainly relieved the
pressure that his Bureau was under after the assassination for having
not kept betting tabs on this freak of nature named Oswald, who was
right under James Hosty's nose for several weeks prior to November
22nd).

Hoover certainly wouldn't have been trying to FALSELY CONVICT (as some
CTers seem to actually believe) the one man whom his Bureau should
have been watching more closely leading up to the assassination, for
Pete sake.

That theory is, again, just silly, IMO.


>>> "It must pain you to have to argue that men with better credentials than Guinn, Rahn and Sturdivan have concluded that Guinn, Rahn and Sturdivan can't be taken to the bank, eh?" <<<


You can have the NAA stuff all to yourself if you want it. As
mentioned earlier, it's merely a coating of redundant icing on the LHO-
Did-It cake anyway.

Now, I'm not saying that it's not nice to have Guinn's NAA analysis in
the official record connected to the JFK case (as added "icing", that
is). Because it is nice to have that there. But it's certainly not
essential in determining the truth of the assassination.

And I'd still like to know just how big a crook/liar/schemer Dr.
Vincent P. Guinn was in 1977 and 1978 (per many CTers, that is).

By that I mean....What are the odds that Dr. Guinn would be able to
reasonably conclude (even via his 1970s standards and NAA methodology)
that only TWO bullets and no more were in the "mix" of bullet lead,
among the 5 specimens he examined for the HSCA -- and both bullets, of
course, coming from Oswald's gun (since CE399 and CE567 were 2 of
those 5 bullet samples) -- IF THERE HAD REALLY BEEN TWO OR MORE GUNS
being pointed at JFK in Dealey Plaza?

Was Guinn just a rotten chemist? Or was he deliberately skewing his
results to meet a predestined WC-backing "two bullets and no more"
conclusion when he said what he said about those five bullet specimens
in 1977-78?

Food for thought (IMO).

www.google.com/group/alt.conspiracy.jfk/msg/e68af2a823062f43

And allow me to once again quote the man who wrote the Bible
("Reclaiming History"), Vince Bugliosi, with respect to the NAA debate
(all emphasis is Bugliosi's here):

"Even if the new findings {not the 2007 study however} were to
render NAA, and hence {Dr. Vincent} Guinn's conclusions, invalid, we
DO know that the stretcher bullet was fired from Oswald's rifle to the
exclusion of ALL other weapons.

"Since THAT is definite, what is the likelihood that a bullet
found on CONNALLY'S stretcher, which we know was fired from Oswald's
gun, is not the same bullet that deposited its missing fragments in
Connally's wrist? Next to nothing. In other words, when all is said
and done, what difference does it make if it turns out that the NAA
tests are completely invalid?

"But there is a more important point to be made. Let's not
forget that the NAA conclusions by Guinn...are COMPLETELY CONSISTENT
with all the other evidence showing that Oswald was at the sniper's
nest window and it was his Carcano rifle that fired the only bullets
that hit Kennedy.

"This other, independent evidence necessarily increases the
likelihood that Guinn's separate NAA conclusions are accurate." --
Vincent T. Bugliosi; Pages 436-437 of "Reclaiming History" (Endnotes
CD)(c.2007)

>>> "And the evidence that the pointy tipped bullet hit Kennedy and Connally is, exactly, what?" <<<


LOL. You tell me, Gary. It's certainly not MY silly theory.

But many CTers I've conversed with DO seem to like that "pointy
bullet" theory. Which, if true, means that either THAT bullet, too,
was "planted", or it must mean that a pointy bullet hit Connally, did
a substantial amount of bony damage inside the Governor, and emerged
in a condition that, I would think, rivals the near-pristine state of
the bullet all CTers love to hate and scorn -- Commission Exhibit
Number Three-Niner-Niner.

It's a silly theory no matter which way CTers wish to go with it.

>>> "And the evidence that the pointy tipped bullet hit Kennedy and Connally is, exactly, what?" <<<


Goodie, a reprise.....

LOL. You tell me, Gary. It's certainly not MY silly theory.

(Wanna go for a Hat Trick here?)

>>> "And the evidence Connally actually lay on that stretcher, rather than, say, Ronnie Fuller, is, exactly, what?" <<<


Was Ronnie hit by a Mannlicher-Carcano bullet (or ANY bullet) on
November 22, 1963, Gary?

The "Fuller" argument goes nowhere, of course. It's quite obvious that
Darrell Tomlinson was not paying strict attention to the stretchers
when he retrieved Bullet CE399 from Connally's stretcher (i.e., the
only stretcher, among the two available, that ANY bullet could have
possibly come off of).

But some CTers would rather rely on hazy human memories, instead of
turning to Occam's, whose Razor is razor-sharp in almost all aspects
of this murder case. (The constant obfuscation exhibited by CTers
notwithstanding, of course.)

Conspiracy-hungry individuals love to complicate things, even when
complicating things isn't necessary (or reasonable) in order to figure
out what probably happened in a given situation.

LNers, though, enjoy Occam's [aka Ockham's] company.

>>> "Has evidence proved that the bullet found on Ronnie Fuller's stretcher had passed through Connally?" <<<


Was Ronnie hit by any bullet on 11/22/63?

If not, where does the argument really go regarding any bullet being
plucked off of Ronnie Fuller's stretcher?

Were the plotters so stupid they couldn't even plant a bullet on the
correct stretcher?

There's nothing I hate worse than an overpaid, ignorant, bullet-
planting "Patsy Framer"! Don't you agree?


>>> "It's quite amusing to me that you've not touched on any of the examples I cited of VB's omissions and distortions of evidence." <<<


All chaff. That's what CTers love--the chaff. Even when the wheat
field is slapping them in the face daily. Go figure.

That's possibly what Mr. Bugliosi thinks too, when it comes to your so-
called cites of VB's "omissions and distortions of evidence".

For CTers, even when a logical, reasonable, Occam's-like answer is
readily available (and such answers exist for virtually every
discrepancy and "oddity" in this case), the conspiracy theorists, who
are bent on promoting their make-believe "plots" or "cover-ups", will
opt for a more complicated, always-unsupportable cloak-and-dagger
explanation to explain away the discrepancy.

The CE399 debate is a perfect example of this. For, is it truly likely
for a bullet from Oswald's gun (which is a gun that we KNOW beyond all
doubt was, indeed, involved in the shooting of President Kennedy in

day and right after those two victims had been shot at by someone who

"Sure there is. Connally's stretcher just BEING in that hallway is
circumstantial evidence that CE399 was found on CONNALLY'S stretcher."

The term circumstantial is even a reach here. The chain of custody
custodianship would not have allowed this bullet to be admitted into
court.

"When coupled with the fact that the occupant (Ronnie Fuller) of the
ONLY OTHER stretcher that is a candidate of producing Bullet CE399 was
most certainly NOT shot with a Mannlicher-Carcano bullet from Oswald's
rifle on 11/22/63 (was he?)....well, the stretcher choices get
narrowed down to a pretty small number -- to one -- Connally's."

Prove this (Fuller's strectcher) as I did not see him mentioned in the
WCR. The real strong option for the other stretcher is JFK, but since
the WCR was so vague on who was on it, and the time of when Tomlinson
brought JBC's back down as compared to when the bullet was found we
are left with conjecture.

Exactly, this is hardly chain of evidence since the person who found
it wasn't even sure which stretcher it came out of. Furthermore, if a
"bump" against the wall knocked it out, why didn't the ride back down
from the operating room do this instead? It is much more likely that
it came from the non-JBC stretcher. Finally, Tomlinson said the bullet
that is in evidence as CE399 was not the one he found.

It's not difficult at all (to tell where the wounds came

in nature, i.e., either a "planted" bullet or a "switched" bullet.

A "planted" bullet is EXTRAordinary to Dave, but a bullet causing 7
wounds, including breaking the 5th rib bone and the wrist of JBC, and
coming our virtually intact is commonplace for him. Talk about
backwards logic.

"And don't extraordinary accusations and theories (that a bullet can

degree of associated extraordinary PROOF to back them up and make
them take flight?"

How about the head of the Edgewood arsenal for one who said it can't
be done (magic bullet scenario)? You remember him don't you? He
refused to bend and so they got a *Vet* at the same place to conduct
tests for them even though he had no real experience in this area. Is
that what you mean by PROOF?

And he was once a practising lawyer? He is making a mockery of the
whole judicial system with this claim. BTW, how does he know for sure
it was not found on JFK's stretcher? Hoover thought so.

Sure, they go by legal precedent and the defense would not have
allowed much of this evidence since the origins of it was so unknown
in many cases. If it was allowed for LHO, you might as well do away
with our legal system since anything would be fair game for entry.

This is an out and out fib, since the origins of any evidence has to
be established. Now granted, in small cases where the defendent is a
small time crook there probably is more allowed in, and much of this
could be due to the public defender having too many cases. In a big
case like this with the country watching and the best of the best
defending LHO for publicity, much of this evidence would be prohibited
based on how it came to be evidence (or more to the point in some
cases, the lack of knowledge of it got to the crime scene at all).

>>> "How does he {Bugliosi} know for sure it was not found on JFK's stretcher?" <<<


Why not learn the case, Rob? (It couldn't hurt your current crap-like
standing to actually LEARN the facts before vomiting your pro-
conspiracy tripe.)

Fact is, JFK's stretcher was never located in the area of Parkland
Hospital where the bullet was found by Tomlinson. Never. Nor was JFK's
body ever in that area down the hall from Trauma Room 1. Kennedy
remained in ER-1 the whole time he was in Parkland.

So it is physically impossible for any bullet from Kennedy's stretcher
to magically appear down the hall.

And if you think the bullet was picked up in Trauma Room No. 1 and
then deposited on a stretcher down the hall...ask yourself: What the
fuck for??!!

Why on Earth would anyone even have the slightest desire to do
something stupid like that? If there was actually a REAL bullet from
LHO's gun that fell out of Kennedy's back (which there wasn't of
course, I'm merely playing the silly CT game for a moment here), then
why would anybody bent on framing Oswald want to tamper with such
great evidence that was already right THERE near Kennedy's own body
and on HIS stretcher, in order to place it on a different stretcher
down the hall?

That's just nuts all around.

Plus: Even if some moron plotter thought it was a good idea to move
the bullet, why plant it on the WRONG stretcher down the hall...or
even on Connally's own stretcher? Why not plant it IN THE LIMO WHERE
JFK WAS SHOT (which would nicely accompany CE567 & CE569, the
fragments also from Rifle #C2766)?

Did any of the so-called "plotters" have a working brain on 11/22?

"NAA isn't the "Rosetta Stone", in my opinion. Far from it. Because

Only a non-reasonable person would come to this conclusion since the

This is not proof in and of itself. There are questions to be
answered about the ordering of the rifle (i.e. ownership), the lack of
LHO's prints on the gun, ammo and scope.


>

As Sylvia Meagher so aptly pointed out, "The Commission . . . offered
no firm physical evidence of a link between the paper bag and the
rifle. The [Warren] Report does not mention the negative examination
made by FBI expert James Cadigan. Cadigan said explicitly that he had
been unable to find any marks, scratches, abrasions, or other
indications that would tie the bag to the rifle. Those negative
findings assume greater significance in the light of an FBI report (CE
2974) which states that the rifle found on the sixth floor of the Book
Depository was in a well-oiled condition. It is difficult to
understand why a well-oiled rifle carried in separate parts [as the WC
claimed] would not have left distinct traces of oil on the paper bag,
easily detected in laboratory tests if not with the naked eye. The
expert testimony includes no mention of oil traces, a fact which in
itself is cogent evidence against the Commission's conclusions."

"Where's the proof that the FBI "faked" anything in this case? Or that


they hid anything from view in this case (with the one exception of
the Hosty note, which I'll readily admit was flushed down the toilet
in Dallas)?"

So you feel it is normal to wrap-up a major case in 48-72 hours if you
are really investigating the crime? If you answer yes, forget ever
saying you are reasonable person. They only way you close a case that
fast is when you have it all worked out ahead of time. Most FBI
employees are honest, hard-working people, so to say they "faked"
everything would be untrue. But to say those at the top of the food
chain coordinated things to reach the preconceived solution is not a
stretch.

> But why on Earth would Hosty EVER admit to doing such a thing if the

Because the note was possibly a warning of the assassination and they
FBI did not act on it. The FBI, and by this I mean JEH since in many
ways he had become the bureau, could be an accomplice without being
involved in the planning at all. Hoover wrote quite a few memos
stating in harsh words how the bureau dropped the ball on this one,
and in an effort to cover this he could have been manipulated into
doing all of this. Or, since he invested his whole life to build the
bureau, he didn't need any manipulation to realize his 39 years of
hard work could go down the toilet if the American people learned they
knew about the plan ahead of time and did not stop it. Or Hoover could
have been involved as some researchers have stated, either way, you
have three scenarios to get the FBI to do this.

Sure, deflect the blame away from him for burning autopsy notes. Do
you really buy that he did it because there was blood on it? It is
possible I guess, but why not keep them AND transfer them to a clean
version?

It is just as silly to say he needed to burn them in the first place
as he could have had his secretary transfer them to a clean sheet (or
he could do it himself), and he could have kept the original version
as well. There is no good reason to burn them so quit putting the
blame on CT's.

He may not have plotted (although it would be very helpful for the
plotters to have him on board), but he certainly helped with the cover-
up and this makes him just as guilty. He, along with the CIA,
impeeded the investigation by not exploring anything that did not
point to LHO, and this is a crime. If you were to not assist the
police in their investigation of a family member or friend, you can be
arrested.

Not if he was part of it, or faced losing everything he had worked for
he wouldn't. Besides he was friends with LBJ and he did away with the
mandatory age retirement for him. Nixon didn't trust him and was the
one who finally got rid of him. Strangely, some have said Hoover
himself was killed as he died quite suddenly. I don't know all the
details, but I think they point to the CIA (Hunt).

Good answer since Milam has shown through his research that Guinn
wasn't even testing the same evidence as the FBI did in 1964,
therefore, for that reason alone the conclusions are of no value. The

This was not possible. He was there to point the guilt at LHO, but
couldn't do it in a scientific method, so they resorted to what works

Big deal, what does this prove? It proves someone shot the bullet
into cotton wadding and plated it since there was no blood or tissue
on it. Furthermore, since it was not removed from one of the bodies
it is not viable to say it entered either one with out their blood or
tissue on it. You have nothing.

Yes, you have a bullet fired by the Carcano, but you don't have proof
LHO fired it or that it was ever in JFK's or JBc's bodies. We know for
sure since we know the magic bullet only lost 2.4 grains and there was
3.0 to 3.2 grains in JBC's wrist. Can't be the same bullet. You do
have next to nothing, in fact, you have nothing. Well, you do have a
nice little bullet to show off.

Sure, and I can say he was not paying attention when he took the

This is a complicated case and you cannot boil it down to the simplest

anything but simple.

Of course you do as this allows you to avoid all the crappy evidence

Answer his question Dave. You brought up Ronnie Fuller, he is asking

It goes in the trash can like it did in 1964 when you can't prove
CE399 ever went into JBC or JFK. You are adding Fuller as a screen.

No, they knew it would be taken care of for them and it was. Despite

How do you know for sure it couldn't be? He was on the the stretcher
the whole time until he was put into the casket. Meanwhile, the
stretcher that took JBC to the second floor was put in the hallway,
but the WC never mentions how long it sat there before Tomlinson took
it down. You have no timeframe either way, so why is it wrong to say
it was JFK's stretcher? I have Dr. Humes, Siebert, O'Neill and Hoover
on my side, but you can't prove it was on JBC's because NO ONE can say
for sure it was on it.

Sure it is, if you could prove it was not JFK's, but alas the WC left
you nothing to work with as usual.

Actually, there were several bullets found that day in the Hospital,
but I'll stick with Dr. Humes's theory that it came out of JFK during
cardiac massage and then the stretcher was just taken to the hallway
with no one seeing it.

Who tampered with it? Tomlinson said he couldn't say which stretcher
it came from and all I'm saying is the other one was JFK's. Not a
stretch at all to me.

Not when you know how to think. It makes more sense than the
stretcher being pushed down from the second floor and not coming out,
but then it is bumped and does.

I'm not saying it was moved and you can't prove it so stop saying it.
You have no proof it was found on JBC's stretcher. WC's word is not
proof.

They did, but you obviously don't.

Is this supposed to be proof? How come when I write stuff it is nutty,
but when he says something he can't prove you believe every word?

Funny how Vince could not tell his readers in a mere 1600 pages, that
the magic bullet could never be id'd, by all those who saw it, or
handled it in the chain of possession...and no Saundra Spencer, no
Morales and Hunt confession either..

My favorite is Bugliosi knowing about the "16 Smoking Guns"... even mentioning
them... but refusing to discuss or refute them.

Not dead, not even dying. I'm afraid that you completely misunderstand the

Hehehehhee !

They would love it to be as dead as their " No Name > To No Face > To
No Gun > To No Assassin > To No Shooting Location > To No Wounds
Identified or Inflicted " scenario that that spells disaster if you
actually think about it .

Think about it ! :-)
