As I understand it, brains cannot be examined fully at the time of autopsy because they are too soft. They must be fixed for a time in formalin to firm them up for dissection. If it is desired to quickly release the body for burial, the brain may need to be retained to complete the examination, especially if damage to the brain is the probable cause of death. Following the examination of JFK's brain it was returned to RFK. This may have been after the funeral, but in any case was too late to reunite the brain with the body. RFK then arranged for the brain to be destroyed. His motivation was probably just to keep it from becoming an object of public curiosity and discussion right after the funeral.
What would you do in that situation?

And Oswald couldn't have done the shooting because he was recording his version of "Long Tall Sally" at the time.

My buddies and I as teenagers in 1963 answered that on as we enjoyed the chilly afternoon out of school. We already knew who had the most to profit and most of our parents felt the same way. Can you spell LBJ. It sure wasn’t like we had any real admiration for JFK; that was for dimwit democrats, old ladies, catholic nuns, and the rich and famous with whom he hung out.

The reason Teddy’s burial plot at Arlington is guarded 24/7 is not fear of vandalism but to keep the winos away since to this day Scotch fumes continue to rise from the grave.

I have this horror movie scenario—The brain of Sen. Robert “Fighting Bob” La Follette (R-Wis.) has secretly been preserved at the University of Wisconsin at Madison. One day, some scientists do an experiment in which they transplant it into the head of a baboon. But to everyone’s horror, the baboon starts campaigning for president as a Progressive Republican.
Because he his brain is from the US and dates from 1855, the Supreme Court rules that the baboon is a natural-born citizen and cannot be prevented from running. Faced with the usual has-beens and never-will-bes that normally comprise the field of GOP presidential hopefuls, the baboon appears to be a shoo-in to become the party’s presidential standard bearer—and will be running against the the Progressive liberal that the Democrats always nominate. Can America be saved from the horrors of Progressivism?

That’s the dress she was sewn into, no zipper up the back of that piece.
