The audio tapes have mostly all but turned to powder! They must be digitized now!

Was there ever any update to this post-COVID? Did NARA digitize them? If they did, we may be able to hear a full audio recording of the first press conference with Parkland Drs. Perry and Clark.

A bullet "lodged behind the President's ear" could also come from an EOP wound. We already entertain the possibility of a shallow back wound, why not a shallow EOP wound?

Whether or not a wound appears to be "punched in" or "punched out" can be considered a separate issue from whether a wound has an abrasion collar.

Bruising is not an abrasion ring which is actually scraped-off skin. Bruising can occur around either entry or exit wounds, and also exit wounds can have something similar to abrasion rings called "shored exit wounds".

This came from JAMA's 1992 article, Dr. Humes being quoted: 'Find the cause of death' "My orders were to find the cause of death and I was told to get anyone I thought necessary to help do the autopsy, but to limit it to only the help I needed. Hell, I could have called in people from Paris and Rome if I thought it necessary, but as it turned out, I didn't. About this time, I also received a phone call from Dr. Bruce Smith, the deputy director of the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology [AFIP], offering me whatever help I might need. Bruce was a friend and I thanked him, saying I would call later if I needed help." […] No generals in the morgue [...] And a third myth - that he was not qualified to do a gunshot autopsy. "I'd done gunshot wounds before and this one was perfectly obvious - there was a huge hole on the right side of the President's head that could only have resulted from the exit of a high-velocity missile. Dr. Bruce Smith [the deputy director of the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology] had initially thought we might want a neuropathologist as a consultant, but once we opened the casket and saw the devastating nature of the president's head wound, we knew that there was no need for the skills of a neuropathologist. I called Dr. Smith back and told him what we had found, and he decided to make available Dr. Pierre A. Finck, who was one of the AFIP's experts in ballistics. I had never be fore met Dr. Finck, who arrived at about 9:15 P.M." So it is at least a fact that the autopsy pathologists could have potentially requested a more experienced person to join them, but the decision was made that Finck was enough.

Do you have any idea of how one would go about finding the report on this July 14, 1977 interview of Perry by Purdy, referenced by Cunningham? Because it definitely appears that this reference is not fake news. We only have the report and partial transcript of Perry's 1/11/1978 interview by Purdy.

Did Kathleen Cunningham pass away a month ago? Is this her? https://www.legacy.com/obituaries/legacy/obituary.aspx?n=kathleen-cunningham&pid=202702512&fhid=6350

The House Select Committee on Assassinations interviewed Dr. Malcolm Perry on 1/11/1978, but there was also apparently an interview before that on 7/14/1977. According to what little was written about this rarely-mentioned earlier interview, there was a discussion between Perry and Committee staffer Dr. Andrew Purdy over some kind of alleged "threat" made by Perry's wife to Dr. James Humes of Bethesda Hospital. The only reference to this that seems to be available on the internet is from an unfinished 1998 essay by researcher Kathleen Cunningham, posted to the old broken website of researcher Kenneth Rahn: http://www.kenrahn.com/Marsh/Jfk-conspiracy/park2.html [...] On July 14, 1977, the HSCA's Andy Purdy telephoned Dr. Perry. Oddly, he would wait for more than a month to type out a memorandum on their conversation. This is most peculiar because of the bizarre story Purdy would relate in the memo's final paragraph. Purdy wrote that Dr. Perry told him that "some years" after the assassination, he went to Detroit. Its not clear from Mr. Purdy's wording if what happened next occurred in Detroit, or upon Perry's return, yet apparently Humes contacted Perry by phone "regarding a threat against Humes allegedly made by Dr. Perry's wife." Mr. Purdy fails to tell us what type of threat this was, or why Dr. Humes believed it was made by Mrs. Perry. Purdy only tells us that this "allegation was untrue, but apparently someone had made the threat." Then Purdy delivers the punchline. The investigation of this threat was conducted by the Secret Service, who ". . . maintained a very cooperative attitude toward the doctors for a number of years after the assassination, including looking into such threats." <38> Such threats? Were there others? The United States Secret Service has no jurisdiction over such matters. This was a case for the local police. Who called them in? Based only on the little currently known, it would seem logical to presume that Dr. Humes did, although this must be considered sheer speculation. However, there exists yet another possibility altogether. It is intriguing that it was Mrs. Perry and not her husband that was alleged to have made the undefined threat against Humes. Thus the authors have asked the ARRB to obtain a copy of the Secret Service file on this episode. Even presuming it contains little more information than is in Mr. Purdy's memo, the date this happened could indicate the entire affair was a veiled threat aimed at Mrs. Perry because her husband was not responding to continued "directions." The website doesn't appear to be a part 1 or 3, only a part 2 (Link), and the numbered citations don't correspond to any list of source notes. It does not say any such thing in the report and partial transcript of Purdy's 1/11/1978 interview with Perry (HSCA Vol. 7, p. 292 [text]) What is this July 14, 1977 interview Cunningham was referring to? I can't find any other reference to this, anywhere.

The story of Saundra Spencer relates to one of many issues in the chain of custody for the official autopsy photographs – there is no clear identification for who developed the film and made the prints at the NPC. There are least 4 potential candidates for who could have done the hands-on processing there – besides Saundra Spencer and James Fox, there is U.S. Navy Lieutenant j.g. Vincent Madonia, White House photographer Robert Knudsen, and NPC employee Carol Ann Bonito. There doesn’t seem to be any single definitive account. There is also a lack of information on how the color negative film in the official collection was duplicated from the color positive film. The HSCA tried publishing a report on the chain of custody for the autopsy materials (HSCA Vol. 7, p. 23 [text]), but it was not very detailed, and a lot more information came afterwards. The statements of Saundra Spencer clearly don’t corroborate the official story, but she did suggest some other potential witnesses. When Spencer was asked in her first 12/13/1996 interview “...Was there anyone else you know of at NPC who had any role in developing any autopsy photograph- photographs other than yourself?”, she said “I- I was trying to think of who the two people were that were working that day, and I- I can't think of it”. Spencer said that whoever else was helping would have been a military rank below her. Spencer then suggested the name of “Bonita” as somebody who could have helped process the photos (Spencer’s 12/13/1996 interview by the ARRB [audio]). The name of Carol Ann Bonito was listed on a Navy Enlisted Distribution and Verification Report from 1963 (ARRB MD 144). In 1963, Carol was in the Navy as a third class E-4 photographer's mate (ARRB, 12/16/1996 email from Douglas Horne to Dave Montague; ARRB Electronic Files of T. Jeremy Gunn, Executive Director and General Counsel, INTERVIE_BONITO.WPD). When Spencer was asked in her deposition about who else could’ve been there helping with the photographs, she said “They secured the regular color lab crews and we stayed”... “There was about three of us up there”... “Carol Bonito was the only one I can identify. There was a 2nd Class that had come aboard just recently, but I didn't remember. The only thing I remember is Kirk was on his name”... “...the gentleman I was talking about was a 2nd Class…”. Question: “When Mr. Fox or the person came to the White House lab, approximately, how many other people were working in the lab at that time?”, answer: “Two others”, question: “Do you remember who they were? Was one Ms. Bonito, for example?”, answer: “Yes, and the 2nd Class. The day crew was on. We had two, usually two 2nd Class that worked the evening shift” (Spencer’s ARRB deposition, 6/5/1997 [text] [audio]). Carol Ann Bonito, whose last name was later changed to Roberts, was found and contacted by the ARRB in 1996 (ARRB staff memo, 5/18/1998, Doug Horne to Jeremy Gunn, Requested Lists of Information Re: All of ARRB's Medical Witnesses, and All New ARRB Medical Evidence Not Previously in JFK Collection; ARRB, 12/27/1996 letter from Jeremy Gunn to Carol A. Roberts), but further details do not seem to be currently available on the internet.

The transcript is littered with [unintelligible] because this is an old audio tape from 1979 being digitized in 2022. Tape can deteriorate into powder before that point. If anybody has any old videos or recordings on any kind of tape (which aren't available on the internet, try using duckduckgo video search to be sure), please look into acquiring a machine to turn them into digital files or a CD, or else they will be lost forever.

If only more people would try to save videos like these as digital files. Unfortunately, the internet not as permanent as people once thought.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SnoWB2x_TIc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNOruNVAMjc Maybe there is more to come. This is from Bart Kamp, right? Did he post these somewhere else or is this Youtube channel connected to Kamp?

I'm not even saying that I personally think the cerebellum was blasted out, but I found this (date 2012 maximum) McClelland lecture where he insists that he saw cerebellum, and spoke of having a previous conversation with Dr. Marion "Pepper" Jenkins where they "agreed to disagree" over whether they saw cerebellum that day. 14 minutes in, and on 32:30 he talks about the photographs. https://ia600603.us.archive.org/24/items/Dr.RobertN.Mcclelland/DrMcclelland.mp3

There is no such thing as maturity, there are only changed opinions. The changing of one's opinion is not a magical marker for an objective truth about the world. It terrifies me how people age-shame using "maturity" a a justification, when if anything, one believing in maturity is a sign of immaturity! It's like saying "My favorite color used to be red, but then I grew up and realized blue was the best color".

https://old.reddit.com/r/JFKeveryday/ It was Jenkins. O'Connor also said Burkley didn't want them examining the throat.

Orwell is just a whiny writer. It's true. Apparently a shill too. I mean, he was on the BBC.

The "bird brain" photo isn't very good propf that x-rays can be faked in the way some say

Fake photos being shown to the doctors at the National Archives in 1988? McClelland did say he thought it was strange that the room with the photos was occupied by a guard holding a rifle.

I know this has been pointed out to you before - but McClelland said the autopsy photographs were only consistent with his memory on the condition that the hand in the photo is holding a piece of scalp over a hole in the back of the head.

Dr. McClelland apparently told the same story throughout the years: he was standing on the head of the gurney at Trauma Room One, helping Perry and Baxter perform the tracheotomy by holding a retractor into the neck incision while it was being explored. Kennedy's head was right below him, so he was in one of the best possible positions to see the large head wound. But an undiscussed quote attributed to Dr. Paul Peters in Gerald Posner's 1993 book Case Closed seems to say otherwise: [...] “I saw a piece of cerebellum fall out on the stretcher,” says McClelland, who claims he was in the best position of any of the doctors to view the head wound.98 He drew a sketch in 1967 for Josiah Thompson’s book Six Seconds in Dallas, which showed a gaping wound in the rear of the head.99 “I am astonished that Bob would say that,” says Dr. Malcolm Perry. “It shows such poor judgment, and usually he has such good judgment.”100 “I don’t think Bob McClelland was in the best place to see the head wound,” says Dr. Peters. “He wasn’t in that position the way I remember it, as he was on the other side of the table. As for Dr. McClelland saying he saw cerebellum fall out on the table, I never saw anything like that.”101 […] Any ideas on what this is supposed to mean?
