How sure are we, really, that the Harper fragment has a part of an entrance hole in it? In your very same website, you talk about the 6.5 mm fragment potentially being a piece of lead that managed to get trapped between the outer surface of the skull and the inner surface of the scalp - are we sure an exit hole couldn't have lead on the outside of the bone? After the lead thing (a la the x-rays resurfaced by John Hunt), all we have are photographs of the Harper fragment, which merely "appears" to show no outward beveling around the part in question - and then there is "discoloration" on the outside part of the edge I guess too. Do I have all of that right?
A new look at the Harper fragment x-rays would be great, copied and studied with modern equipment, not whatever John Hunt had in 2004. The archives may also already have higher-quality digital scans of the photographs taken at the Christian hospital and the FBI, the ones which may show "lead" discoloration on the outer edge. But again, I'm not sure what's no provably weird about having a bit of lead on the outside. -

Amazing! An update! And who knows, maybe somebody will also find his stolen car.

How could Humes do "any" saw work on that mess?
They would've had to carefully remove the sharp broken pieces of skull bone before trying to do any sawing - all the more reason to doubt the HSCA's interpretation of the empty-cranium photos - the HSCA claims those photos show an undisturbed entrance and exit hole only 5 inches apart, even though it would be impossible and improper to try removing a brain through a skull cavity that is only a width of 5 inches or less.

I recently had my laptop--a top of the line Apple product--make a short sizzling sound and go black. My wife--a tekkie--is convinced my hard-drive died and that it's toast. Fortunately, I had a back-up drive from a few months back. So I only lost the last few months of downloads and documents. But if I hadn't had that back-up drive, and much of my stuff online or on the cloud, it would have been gone forever. It happens.
As much as Google sucks, it might be worth the $1000 for three years of 2 TB storage on Google Drive - after all, Google isn't going to go out of business. You just might want to use zip files or even encrypted zip files, because Google has the right to read and scan everything you put on Drive. They actually won't let you share a private link to many movies. Is there a more reliable way?

Lifton also since changed his opinion on how the exchange went at Bethesda.
In 1988 he was also on A Current Affair giving a different opinion about the exchange https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GtnB6wbe55k
And in 1990 there was the Best Evidence research video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAWFvcrp-ao
And of course there are those 2012 interviews where were posted. Maybe he even changed his opinion since 2012.

Hi Micah, thankyou for replying. My own view is that Pat Speer's analysis to demonstrate a rear headshot is very convincing. His view that there were two rear headshots gets sketchy , and his bouncing head theory is a very hard sell. If you are unconvinced by Z-film alteration then it is fair to say Mr Speers view is a fairly coherent explanation. I find too many plausible pieces of evidence that are incompatible with the extant Z film.
What's harder for you to accept, an EOP entrance wound, a temporal-parietal tangential wound, or the Harper fragment not being occipital bone?

Someone said recently they were inside Liftons storage unit while Lifton was alive. I think it was Max Good who took footage of it for his Ruth Paine documentary but that footage never made the final cut.
Maybe Max Good could tell us where it is? Assuming it hasn't already been emptied and it's contents dumped.

And what was the name of the pilot in Air Force 2 who Lifton said saw a forklift mess with Kennedy's coffin on the starboard side of Air Force 1?
-
I know in 2018 Lifton came out on the Night Fright show with the "three unknown witnesses" who saw Jackie try to get out of the limo further down the freeway 1-2 minutes after it left Dealey Plaza. So that was partially the basis for his idea of Plan A being body alteration in a Dallas ambulance - Jackie's apparently insisting against an ambulance and insisting on getting to a hospital instead. That, and he claimed that there are anomalies with how ambulances in the area were behaving at the time.
Do we even know the names of those three witnesses now???

What about any updates from Kossor or this Blackwell guy, who i never head of before.
I am really surprised if the laptop cannot be salvaged.
As Mr. Butler had said, you can do that.
Does anyone know anything about this at all?
Could there be one or more draft manuscripts in the possession of the publishing companies that originally wanted to publish Final Charade in 2000 (HarperCollins I think) and again in 2007 (William Morrow & Co I think)? I know Lifton had a lot of new material after that time, but such an old private manuscript could be an invaluable source of old stories. Who knows, a manuscript could be in somebody's storage and they might not know it.

Did David Lifton's family not like him? I wonder if his stuff is safe. Could it go in the trash because his family didn't care?

I know- bizarre, is it not? Harry had two NY Times Best-Sellers, HIGH TREASON and HIGH TREASON 2 (and High Treason was a best-seller twice).
I get the impression that Livingstone's family didn't like him. David Lifton too.

I can't find any obituaries on Harrison Livingstone from 2015 that aren't from your website. Nothing even on newspapers.com. I'm not sure why. Did he have another name?

You cannot make this stuff up.

Eh. Is Jenkins not a bit of a clown, if only by design?

See Speer's website. Hill isn't the greatest medical witness.

Is there any strong evidence that the Kennedy family was interfering with the autopsy BEFORE the time RFK was killed? We have an autopsy authorization with RFK's signature and nothing written under the "Restrictions" field.

Hi Micah,
I find the concept of the contingency plan extremely persuasive, especially because Larry Hancock is confirming its existence (if not its significance). Your recent posting of an early autopsy (Dr Kemp Clark?) article also fits with the idea of a pre-autopsy to remove frontal shot evidence.
I would like to know your view of the strength of frontal throat shot evidence. To me it comes in comes packages ; Evidence of a frontal shot, and highly unpersuasive evidence of a rear shot capable of exiting at the throat. Are you persuaded by a bullet hitting the neck and ricocheting into the chest and damaging the lungs (A Robert Prudhomme view I remember)?
The last news article I posted claimed that Kennedy was covered in "an expendable paper shroud" at Parkland and that his head was wrapped in "several plastic bags".
Dr. Clark said he didn't see the throat wound before the tracheotomy was begun.
Even though I have spent years cataloging evidence for a frontal shot, I am still more interested in a theory like Pat Speer with all shots coming from behind. Who knows, maybe it could've been geometrically possible for a single shooter to cause all wounds by having both high and low velocity ammunition in the chamber of an automatic weapon.

Thanks for this post. It's always interesting to see comments before the narrative was set.
Actually, I have found that Dr. Kemp Clark was apparently reading off the same prepared statement in each of the press conferences at Parkland, word-for-word. This amazing fact has probably confused researchers, who read newspaper articles on the later conferences and just assumed it was the media who had been re-using quotes from the 11/22 conference, even though the articles directly attribute the identical quotes to dates after 11/22. Unless there's something I'm not getting, that's pretty weird. I will post proof soon here.

From a 5/30/1990 letter from Harold Weisberg to Harrison Livingstone: https://ia601304.us.archive.org/3/items/nsia-LivingstoneHarrisonEdward/nsia-LivingstoneHarrisonEdward/Livingstone Harrison Edward 075.pdf
There is no doubt at all that a shipping casket was delivered. There also is no doubt about why. It was shipped by the Military District of Washington, acting normally and automatically. When Lifton's fabrications appeared or I first heard of them, I'm not taking the time to check but you are welcome to, I filed a simple FOIA request of the MDW. I asked only for copies of what it had provided Lifton. I have them as I got them and you are welcome to read or copy them.
What is Weisberg talking about here? Is there something that should be in his archives that I can't find?

Currently trying to map out all of the differences between the transcript of the 11/22 conference and the media quotations of it. Also trying to map out all of the news reports of Dr. Kemp Clark at the parkland press conferences that occured in the days following 11/22.
THE LATEST (JANUARY 2021) update on Angelos Leiloglou's 3D model of Dealey Plaza
in JFK Assassination Debate
Posted
At 5:40 into the video, John Orr says that the project costed "thousands of dollars" - Is there any way to find out exactly how much money it would take to make a new project copying the same basic goal of a 3D model that overlays the pictures taken at the time of the shooting? If there was a solid plan, maybe there could be a bit of crowd-funding action. Might depend on what happens after the 60th when Angelo's model will be unveiled, as has been announced.
