update:: the Bell film has been found to show a view from Harry's office. This view right at the end of the film (as available) finishes with a view of the Dallas Court building. It appears to be a couple of people in the windows there looking towards the post office. These could be the witnesses of shots from the post office.

The Paschall film also shows this from another angle.

"Clyde Snow, forensic anthropologist, when helping to train investigators following the fall of the Generals in Argentina, used a statistical technique developed by himself that was later used to help convict perpetrators of the Disappeared.

One problem they had was locating the graves. The bodies were usually logged as 'unknown'. So he compiled a list of all unknowns over a period extending pre and post Junta. Then by checking the frquency against an average he could pinpoint cemeteries to check. In this way he was also able to crossreference torture centers and other localities involved in the disposal of human beings.

I wonder if anyone has done a similar study of the U.S. equivalent of the 'unknown', John and Jane Doe, in the Dallas area in the period following the assassination? Obviously the obstructions created by those who don't want these individuals identified, many of whom existed within the system in locked wards, mental institutions and jails, would make this difficult but not impossible."

I suppose it's not easy for those who are not fully aware of what sort of place the Deep South could be in those days to believe that the action suggested above could happen. Also, there would be a reluctance to embrace it as a part of the USA history of the country of the Brave and the Free.

It happened.

Mississippi 3, 1964

Medical Examiners, Judge Cox, police, the KKK and ordinary folk all conspired to hide the truth.

During the search for the bodies, many other bodies and body parts were found of individuals (black) unidentified to this day.

It was not unusual for a black person with a gunshot wound to be signed off as a heart attack. The system, including law enforcement, medical and legal, was set up after years of segregation to hide the actions of those who struggled to preserve the status quo. This is an important thing to keep in mind with regards to the JFK killing.
