• John Corbutt Has PROVEN His Cowardice!

    When faced with this:

    3. Another fact that, all by itself, is virtually conclusive evidence
    proving the single-bullet theory is that the entrance wound in
    Governor Connally’s back was not circular, but oval. Drs. Charles
    Gregory and Robert Shaw, who attended Connally at Parkland Hospital,
    described the wound as “linear” and “elliptical” in shape, indicating
    that the bullet was out of alignment with its trajectory just before
    striking Connally’s body. The HSCA said that a factor which
    “significantly” influenced its conclusion that the bullet that struck
    Connally had first struck and passed through Kennedy “was the ovoid
    shape of the wound in the Governor’s back, indicating that the bullet
    had begun to tumble or yaw before entering. An ovoid wound is
    characteristic of one caused by a bullet that has passed through or
    glanced off an intervening object…The forensic pathology panel’s
    conclusions were consistent with the so-called single bullet theory
    advanced by the Warren Commission,” to wit, that one bullet had passed
    “through both President Kennedy and Governor Connally.”

    My firearms expert at the London trial, Monty Lutz, told me that “no
    bullet traveling at 2,000 feet per second is going to start to tumble
    or yaw on its own until around 200 yards. When Connally was struck he
    was around 60 yards from the window, so the bullet had to have hit
    something before it hit him, and other than Kennedy’s body, there was
    nothing between the sixth-floor window and him. Not the oak tree, or
    its leaves. Nothing.”

    It has to be emphasized that at the time Connally was struck by a
    bullet (somewhere between Z frames 210 and 222),* the oak tree to the
    north of Elm close to the Depository Building was no longer in the
    line of fire from the sniper’s nest to Connally’s body.

    So Kennedy’s body was the only intervening object that the Connally
    bullet could have first hit. HSCA physical scientist Larry M.
    Sturdivan told the committee that the Carcano bullet was a “very
    stable bullet, perhaps one of the most stable bullets that we have
    ever done experimentation with.” He said that it would only start
    yawing—and then very little, “perhaps less than a degree”—at “about
    100 meters” (about 110 yards) and “if it had struck [Connally] without
    having previously encountered another object, it [Connally’s back
    wound] would never have been elongated. This bullet is too stable. It
    would have had to be a nice round hole.”

    Here's the quesition that Chickenshit will refuse to answer: What is
    the "virtually conclusive evidence" that Bugs was talking about?



    Corbutt refuses to answer ANY questions, or help out his fellow
    believers...

    Corbutt's a coward.

    Hmmm. IIRC, Bugliosi spent some time talking about the HSCA's Dictabelt nonsense and how that influenced their incorrect theories about when the second shot was fired. At any rate, his position (and most LN's today) is that the SBT shot hit closer to
    Z222-224 time frame.
