What do members make of Jerrol Francis Custer?

When John F. Kennedy was assassinated on 22nd November, 1963, his body was taken to Bethesda and Custer was asked to take X-rays of Kennedy's body.

He was interviewed by William Matson Law for his book, In the Eye of History: Disclosures in the JFK Assassination Medical Evidence. Custer told Law that Kennedy's neck wound was man-made: "There were no suture marks. It was a big gaping hole." Custer also claimed that a bullet fragment fell out of Kennedy's back: "It wasn't complete because there was some fragmentation. Some area of destruction on the bullet." This bullet was taken away by FBI agents, Francis X. O'Neill and James W. Sibert.
