Commission finding.--Doctors at Parkland Hospital originally believed that the throat wound could have been either an entry or exit wound, but they made no examination to determine entry and exit." (WCR 641)

The doctors at Parkland DID NOT "originally believe that the throat wound could have been either an entry or exit wound"... All of the first day statements and observations, both spoken and put down in writing - all asserted the same thing, that the neck wound was a penetrating or entry wound. It's well known today that the Secret Service sent two agents to Parkland, who succeeded in changing minds about the direction of the neck wound by telling Parkland that the autopsy showed this. (3H 363-364)

Interestingly, although there were known to have been interviews conducted with Parkland staff, a total of 24 Secret Service and 6 FBI interviews - yet not a single one of these reports were included in the 26 volumes - according to Sylvia Meagher.

The Warren Commission simply lied. 

And it's amusing that no believers will be able to refute this example of the Warren Commission lying about the evidence.

Absolute hogwash.

The theory that the neck woudn was an entry is nothing short of pitiful. The Parkland doctors were not in a position to make an accurate judgment on whether or not the wound was an entry or exit.

Of course the theory, to be correct requires two non transitting bullets plus a separate shot to Connally - giving three "non fatal" shots.....add that to the head shot and the shot tally starts to climb beyond what almost anyone heard.

The theory is as adopted by extreme, illogical conspiracy sensationalists and cannot even begin to be taken seriously. It is for want of better word, laughable.
