SANDY LARSEN SAID:
As I understand it, in 1998 the Zapruder family had a high resolution digital copy of the Zapruder film made. This first-generation copy was given to the National Archives according to the JFK Act, and copies of the frames were donated to the Sixth Floor museum.
At some point in time, researchers Sydney Wilkinson and Tom Whitehead had purchased third-generation copies of the film in order to look for signs of alteration. They did find anomalies, an obvious one being that the back of Kennedy's head had been blackened.
DAVID VON PEIN SAID:
I guess that means ol' Abe must have been part of the conspiracy and cover-up too, huh? Either that, or the conspirators and film-alterers just got mighty lucky when Mr. Zapruder went on TV at WFAA's studios in Dallas just 2 hours after the assassination and demonstrated with this hand motion (below) where he saw President Kennedy's head "practically open up", which just happens to perfectly match the location of the large exit wound in JFK's head when viewing what many conspiracy theorists insist is an ALTERED version of the Zapruder Film. This is a rather remarkable coincidence, in my opinion, IF the large exit wound in JFK's head was really in the back of his head (as CTers think it was).
And I guess Gayle Newman was part of the cover-up too....
GAYLE NEWMAN ON 11/22/63:
Those plotters and cover-up operatives sure worked fast when it came to coercing and strong-arming the witnesses, didn't they? Or did the bad guys truly just GET LUCKY when the two witnesses above (who were two of the closest witnesses to the President when he was shot) said nothing at all about the BACK of JFK's head being blasted out by the fatal bullet?
MICAH MILETO SAID:
Do occipital-blowout people think the right skull flap didn't exist?
DAVID VON PEIN SAID:
Based on many of my conversations with the "occipital blowout people", I have gotten the distinct impression that, yes, they seem to think the large wound at the right-front of JFK's head just didn't exist at all. They sure don't mention it very much (if at all). It's always occipital, occipital, occipital and fake autopsy photos whenever CTers discuss where they think the exit wound was located.
Good question though, Micah.
BTW, do you think the right-frontal wound existed, Micah?
MICAH MILETO SAID:
Yeah, I bet someone could replicate the Parkland-Bethesda head wound paradox using zombie special effects. If they tilted their head a certain way while laying on the table, maybe a wound above the ear would appear to be more behind the ear. Now the chest tubes, that's a real paradox between Parkland and Bethesda.
A Coup In Camelot argued that the right skull flap was created by the shooting, along with the occipital blowout, but was quickly pushed back in by Jackie. In that case, the Dealey Plaza witnesses would recall the right skull flap in that moment, and then it could be temporarily secured back from dried blood or hair.
