Research reopens JFK assassination theories

New testing on the type of ammunition used in the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy raises questions about whether Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone, according to a study by researchers at Texas A&M University.

Lead research Cliff Spiegelman stressed, however, that the research does not necessarily support conspiracy theorists, who for decades have doubted Oswald was the lone gunman.

“We’re not saying there was a conspiracy. All we’re saying is the evidence that was presented as a slam dunk for a single shooter is not a slam dunk,” said Spiegelman, a Texas A&M statistics professor and an expert in bullet-lead analysis.
...
“Is this going to solve the case, create further investigation or change anybody’s mind? Probably not, but it supports the contentions of conspiracy researchers all through the years,” said Jim Marrs, whose book, “Crossfire: The Plot That Killed Kennedy” was one of two used as the basis for Oliver Stone’s conspiracy film “JFK.”

Spiegelman advocates for the bullet fragments from the assassination to undergo more rigorous analysis.

I saw this guy on television. He seemed credible. He did not have a theory.... just talked about the bullet evidence. (Also interesting is Howard Hunt's deathbed assertion that LBJ planned the assasination with rogue CIA agents. People who know Hunt say he was the ultimate spy and sometimes told the truth and sometimes told very convincing lies for his own reasons.....)

Most of the evidence, from what I understand, is still sealed until 2027 (or some time around that date).

I know most of you have probably seen the JFK movie, but that is pretty conviencing.

It has always been suspicious to me that all notes and evidence on the three tramps - who were rounded up that day and then abruptly released - vanished before the Warren Commission hearings. Some people believed that those three tramps looked a lot like three CIA operatives. Some photos taken by reporters of the three still exist, and some conspiracy buffs would like to see those photos examined using modern facial recognition technology.

Maybe we will know more in 2027. ...Like last year when we finally found out the identity of "Deep Throat" from the Watergate days!
