Micah Mileto Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 A quick question about RFK - if this photograph is supposed to be a bullet hole in the door frame, why does it look like this? Shouldn't it just be a small gaping hole? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Hancock Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Actually the bullet cleanly penetrated the soft wood and embedded itself leaving only a small hole. In order to get the bullet out LAPD officers on the scene brought in a hotel maintenance man who literally dug out the bullets leaving the larger, gaping hole in the photo. Both the police officers and the maintenance man described that to a researcher but after calls were made to superiors the police officers involved refused to comment further on confirm their earlier story in writing. I'm pretty sure I cover this in my essays and cite the source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wood looks mostly untouched in the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Walton Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Micah, the proof of it being a bullet hole is the cop standing there pointing at it. Questions were asked, the shooting was investigated, and holes were found. I know the police are not always right but do you really think they'd just assume, "Oh, look...here's a hole. Maybe a bullet hit here? Or not?" The same is true very early in the JFK murder. Things were seen, witnessed and so on until it was all swept under the rug by the official story.

I'm just wondering why the bullet hole looks like that. Also, looking at the RFK inquest exhibits with all of the police photos, I'm wondering a few more things http://www.maryferrell.org/photos.html?set=RFK-GRANDJURY 1. In the pictures of two bullet holes circled in the wall, why are there other spots which look like smaller holes? 2. There is one picture that appears to be just a door hinge with a bit of paint scraped off. Why were they taking a picture of this? Now that I'm just starting to get interested in the RFK shooting, I want to be sure that the investigators weren't just taking pictures of random spots what may or may not be bullet holes/ricochets. I know from witness statements there were at least one or two bullets recovered from these holes, but I want to know what value these photos hold.

Larry Hancock Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Micah, the best advice I could give would be to start with number 4 in my series of essays on this which discuss the issues of evidence you are interested in: https://www.maryferrell.org/pages/Essay_-_Incomplete_Justice_-_No_there_were_no_other_guns.html It will refer you to several additional sources for study on the specifics of the bullet holes and physical evidence but specifically I would suggest you get and dig though the two books by Phillip Melanson who did some exceptional independent research on specifically that area, far better than anything the LAPD or the FBI did (or would admit to). Those sources should at least get you going in the right direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Micah Mileto Posted March 5, 2017 Author Share Posted March 5, 2017 Is this supposed to be an actual hole created by a whole bullet penetrating the wall? If so, why does it look like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
