CHRIS, THE WOUND IN JOHN CONNALLY'S BACK WAS AN ENTRANCE WOUND OF 1.5CM WIDE LIKE THE 1.5 CM WIDE WOUND IN JFK'S BACK. BOTH WERE ENTRANCE WOUNDS AND BOTH HAD WOUND COLLARS. A TUMBLING BULLET OF THE SINGLE BULLET THEORY COULD NOT HAVE ACCOMPLISHED THIS FEAT. PLUS, DR. ROBERT SHAW DESCRIBED THE ENTRANCE WOUND IN CONNALLY AS A "TUNNELING WOUND" WHICH IS INDICATIVE TO A DIRECT SHOT NOT A "TUMBLING" BULLET FROM JFK'S WOUNDS. CONNALLY FIRST DESCRIBED HIS BACK WOUND AS BEING SEPARATE FROM THE FIRST SHOT THAT HIT THE PRESIDENT. HE SAID HE WAS HIT BY THE SECOND SHOT.
The wound in Connally’s
back did not indicate a sideways hit any more than the wound in the back of Kennedy’s
head. The latter was 1.5 x 0.6 centimeters, and the former, 1.5 x 0.8 centimeters,
as documented on at least four occasions by the governor’s thoracic surgeon, Dr.
Robert Shaw. (4WCH104,
107; 6WCH85,
86).
The holes in the back of Connally’s shirt and jacket were as small as his back
wound. (5WCH64)
(See TABLE below.) The damage inside Connally’s chest also
disproves a sideways hit. According to Shaw, the bullet created a "small
tunneling wound" (7HSCA149)
and he noted, "the neat way in which it stripped the rib out without doing
much damage to the muscles that lay on either side of it." (4WCH116)
Shaw felt that the shape of the bullet was explained either by a “slight tumbling,”
or by it striking at a tangent. (6WCH95)
It had to have been a tangential hit since
the bullet “followed the line of declination of the fifth rib” (4WCH105),
i.e., its path slanted downward.
Connally’s back wound became 3
centimeters when it was surgically enlarged. Shaw explained that in order
to clean and debride (cut away devitalized tissue) the wound, he had to enlarge
it to twice its size. (6WCH88)
