The so called “magic bullet” that came from a rifle in the book depository which went through Kennedy’s neck, perforated Connally’s chest, and wrist and ended buried in his right thigh likely would have been a fatal wound to Kennedy. But we will never know because another bullet came through the back of Kennedy’s head, fragmented into many pieces and took a lot of his brain with in a horrific exit wound.

These to bullets acted very differently because one was a 6.5mm full metal jacketed projectile designed to pierce and not fragment. The bullet that caused Kennedy’s head wound was a 5.56mm frangible bullet fired from a rifle at close range designed to fragment into many pieces. It left an entrance hole in the back of Kennedy’s head that was too small for a 6.5mm bullet to fit through even after the assassination. This was explained away by the Warren commission by claiming that the hole in Kennedy’s skull contracted after the bullet passed through... something which both hunters and firearms experts know does not actually happen in real life. Both projectiles behaved exactly as designed.

The secret service were carrying rifles loaded with 5.56×45mm cartridges with frangible bullets. They produce wounds when fired into the back of someone’s head at close range that match Kennedy’s head wound exactly.

Several witnesses claimed that they smelled gun powder at the location where Kennedy was hit immediately after the shots were fired. The wind direction and the distance from the book depository’s 6th floor window meant that the odor could not have come from Oswald’s rifle.

So despite Oswald’s many dubious connections with numerous foreign and domestic government organizations it was an accidental discharge from his own security detail which caused the most horrendous wound. This is detailed in a book called Mortal Error by Bonar Menninger. It is not as exciting as the exotic theories but the explanation fits the evidence perfectly. And it also explains many of the absurd actions of the secret service and federal investigative organizations after the assassination as well.

Hmmmm.

The angle of JFK's head at the time he was struck with the second bullet excludes this theory as the rifle shot coming from anywhere but the sniper's perch occupied by LHO. Inside the car we have photographs and film showing the agents in his car and no one is holding a rifle anywhere in relation to cause an accidental discharge(this was the allegation?) We don't need anyone's word on it as the Zapruder film confirms this.
