I resently saw a nice documentary focusing on the Magic Bullet, the largly debunked the magic and unheald the findings of the Waren Report.
They did an excelent recreation of the Assasination, Balistic Torsos were created to replicate Kennedy and Connaly adsact anatamy and position at point they were shot. An identical Carcino Rifle and amunition from the same batch that Ozwald used was fired from a perch equivlilent to the School Book Depository.
To make the Kennedy Torso they examining Kennedy's shirt for the Bullet hole, then posed a man of similar height as Kenedy had been siting when shot and X-rayed him. They found that kennedys entrace would would actualy have been at the base of his neck and the bullet followed a strait line through his body.
It then continued in a straitline to the Govenor beggining to tumble and entered slanted to produce to the elongated entrace wound. The buttet continued on in a straitline to enter his wrist. In the wrist the bullet was deflected to enter the Thigh. In total the bullet is only deflected off its straitline course once at the Govenors wrist when it is already lost most of its energy.
Their simulation almost perfectly replicated the wounding present in Kennedy and Connaly. The only major difference being that their bullet broke 2 ribs in Connaly and then left the wrist with so little energy that it bounced off their final block which represented the Thigh. Their bullet was also more deformed then the "magic" bullet likly because it hit additional bones. The fact that the bullet could be moving so slowly after leaving the wrist adds weight the the argument that the bullett might have come out of the Govenors thigh on its own to be found later on the streatcher.
They conclude that only 1 shooter Oswald need be present to fully account for all the shots and wounds inflicedt that day. Given that a second shooter is not nessary and no evidence for one has ever been found, they conclude Oswald was the lone gunman. This dose not preclude a conspiracy behind Oswald (I personaly DO belive Oswald was a tool of some higher power), it mearly means their was only 1 shooter which is not unreasonable. A group or conspiring to assasinate Kennedy would have trouble finding and positioning skilled gunman and each additional gunman raises the chance the plot will be found out. A man firing from a very open and exposed position like the grassy knoll would not be very smart.
I also belive their was a coverup, as in an intential and politicaly motivated effort to declare Oswald a lone wacko. The goverment most likly never knew if this asertion was true or not simply for the reason that they didn't investigate. They didn't want the public to know and its much easier to not leak information if you dont have the information to leak, hense no investigation. Ironicaly this means that theirs a slim chance he realy WAS a lone wacko and a proper investigation at the time would have reavealed that. But ofcorse their not going to risk that one of the conspiracy leads actualy pans out and finds a conspiracy, especialy one implicating the Russians and/or Cubans.
As that fictional frontpage aludes too, it possible that multiple organizations conspired to do it. Cuba might have gotten assistence from Russian agents if not from the full Russian goverment, and possible mofia partispation as the "hired help" isn't out of the question either. So rather then "Who done it?" its more of a "Who Didnt do it?".
