Read carefully about what DeLoach has to say about the outside of the windshield being smooth and the inside of the windshield being "sharp and grooved." Most of times when bullets go through glass, the impact side of the glass is smooth, but the exit side of the glass is jagged.

FBI leader Deke DeLoach describes the crack in the windshield of JFK's limo

Outside it was smooth; inside it was sharp & grooved.

"With the help of the Secret Service, they rolled out the car, removed the plastic cover and the leatherette convertible top. One of the FBI agents, a photographer, took pictures from all angles, including the interior of the trunk. Then Frazier and his crew began to examine the automobile, patiently, carefully, with precise attention to every detail. They measured the crack on the windshield, gleaming in the artificial light like a spider web. They they ran their fingers across it inside and outside. Outside the spider web was smooth to the touch. Inside it was sharp and grooved. They carefully scraped the cracks with a knife and captured tiny bits of metal along with the ground glass. Later they would discover that the metal was identical with the slivers found during the autopsy.

After carefully harvesting the windshield, they examined every other likely inch of the automobile - tires, fenders, uphostery, dashboard, floor. On the back seat and on the rug they discovered dried blood and brain tissue, which they examined for metal fragments. They also found fragments of metal - more pieces of the puzzle - on the floor. Two of them were fairly large. Maybe large enough! Frazier was encouraged. It was tedious and exacting work, but every little piece in place clarified the picture."

May I ask with all due respect, what is your point? BTW, I've communicated with Robert Frazier on this; he does not seem to be a fan of DeLoach, who was not, of course, present.

How do we weigh and evaluate evidence in regard to the windshield? We should ideally give the first-hand accounts more weight than second-hand hearsay, or, in this case, probably reading Frazier's documents. But by the time the FBI was given access to the limo it had been moved 1600 miles and the SS had had control of it, poring over it earlier in the evening and probably even while it was in the C130 on the trip from Love Field to DC.

So a number of people were touching the windshield on 11.22-23.63, and none of them was a forensic glass expert.

Pamela,

You are really one pathetic human being for pursuing this matter the way you are.

Try looking at the evidence, rather than manufacture some idiotic recreation of a scenario that never even happened.

Why do you find it necessary to resort to vague accusations and ad homs?

Just what are you talking about?
