Michael Crane Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 (edited) Was he naked? Was his head wrapped with a couple of towels? Was his body wrapped in a sheet? Was it James Jenkins or Paul O'Connor again? I can only find one man & his name was James E.Metzler. Enquiring minds wanna know.

Gainesville man recalls JFK autopsy (ocala.com) Paul O'Conner -Specifically: "The casket he was put in in Dallas was not the same one he came to Bethesda in," he said. "And I understand from talking with people at the emergency room in Dallas that he was not placed in a body bag. When he got to us he was in a body bag." When Kennedy's body arrived on O'Connor's table, it was in a body bag. Unzipped, the bag revealed a gruesome sight. "I looked at it and said, 'My Lord in heaven.' It looked like a bomb went off inside his head," he said. "My primary role was to get the body in and log it in, which I did, and then I was going to remove the brain. But there was no brain. Most of it was blown out." And: ARRIVAL AT BETHESDA (whokilledjfk.net) Sibert and O'Neill: " . . .This author estimates that Sibert and O'Neill, along with Greer and the ambulance, arrived at the morgue entrance just prior to 7:17 PM. Sibert told the ARRB that he and O'Neill assisted Greer and Kellerman in taking the ornamental bronze casket into the anteroom of the morgue at about 7:17 PM [15, p. 45; p. 50]. In their interview with Specter, both agents said that "preparations for the autopsy" occurred at approximately 7:17 PM [12, p. 2]. . ." And: The Kennedy Casket Conspiracy – The Future of Freedom Foundation (fff.org) Dennis David - specifically: " . . . What did the casket look like? David stated that it was a simple, gray shipping casket similar to the ones commonly used in the Vietnam War. . . " And: ARRB MD 64 - O'Connor-Purdy HSCA Interview (8/29/77) (maryferrell.org) Paul O'Connor - again - specifically: . . . . O'Connor said the casket was a pink shipping casket and it arrived at approximately at eight o'clock. He said the body was wrapped in a body bag, and the head was wrapped in a sheet . . .

Michael Crane Posted June 20, 2023 Author Share Posted June 20, 2023 (edited) Thank you kindly Ron.I certainly appreciate it. I always enjoy increasing my knowledge. I was under the impression that what O'Connor was describing was the 6:35 pm arrival & placing on the autopsy table & not the 8:00 pm placing on the table. IMHO...I don't believe that O'Connor was present at the 8:00 placing on the autopsy table. Edited June 20, 2023 by Michael Crane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
