Quote:"3. Although it is not necessary to any essential findings of the Commission to determine just which shot hit Governor Connally, there is very persuasive evidence from the experts to indicate that the same bullet which pierced the President's throat also caused Governor Connally's wounds." (WCR 19)

Another excellent lie by omission... "the experts" are apparently Dr. Alfred G. Olivier, a veterinarian, and Dr. Arthur J. Dziemian, a PH.D. in physiology. As McKnight puts it:
 

Quote:"The awkward fact confronting the Commission in marshaling so-called expert testimony was that most of the experts the Commission called upon for this critical determination actually disagreed with the conclusion stated in the report. The three Bethesda prosectors, Drs. Humes, Boswell, and Finck, were convinced that a separate bullet had struck Connally. None of them supported the possibility that Commission Exhibit (CE) 399 (the so-called magic bullet) could have shattered the governor's wrist and remained in near-pristine condition. Dr. Joseph R. Dolce, the U.S. Army's expert on high velocity weapons and the military's top ballistics expert, remained un-yielding in his opinion that two bullets had hit Connally, with a separate bullet causing the extensive damage to his wrist. When Dolce told Commission lawyer Arlen Specter that the forensic evidence did not support the contention that both men had been hit by the same missile, he was never again consulted and was not called as a witness. Governor Connally's two principal surgeons, Drs. Robert R. Shaw and Charles F. Gregory, testified before the Commission in late April that Connally's wounds were too massive to have been inflicted by one missile, especially one that was barely mutilated. It is worth noting that it was a unique event in the investigation for the Bethesda prosectors and the Parkland Memorial Hospital doctors to be in agreement about the medicolegal evidence in the Kennedy assassination." Breach of Trust - Gerald McKnight, pg. 289.

Another obvious lie by the Warren Commission - the experts who could apply the best expertise to the topic were disregarded or even dismissed, while the WC 'shopped' for the "experts" who would support their thesis.

And unless you immerse yourself into the actual testimony of these critical medical & ballistic experts, you'd never know this from just reading the WCR.

Another lie exposed!
