Several films and pictures were taken in Dealey Plaza during the time of the assassination. These items become important technical evidence to be analyzed when reviewing this crime. The above frame from the Robert Hughes film shows both the president’s limousine and the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository (TSBD). Very shortly after this turn onto Elm street, the first shots were fired. The angle of the first shot from this sixth floor window and the horizontal would be around 60 degrees. The angle becomes shallower as the limo progresses down Elm.

What we do not see in this picture is the barrel of the rifle protruding from the window. In fact, for someone to shoot from this window, at this point in the sequence, will require the shooter to almost hang out of the half open window. The angle to the traffic below is that steep. We can see the half open window and the stack or boxes, but nothing else is clear in this picture.

This corner of the sixth floor has been referred to as the Sniper’s nest. This area is part of the entire sixth floor and is in one open space. There are no dividers for offices. Also note that the boxes are stacked right up to the half open window. The rifle could not be propped on the top of the box stack without obstructing the view thru the scope. The window ledge in this building is about 12-14 inches from the floor line. This ledge would be the only logical area to support the rifle. Supporting the rifle on the boxes is totally blocked by the half open window. Even if the barrel of the rifle protrudes just under the half open window, the view thru the scope would be obstructed. You can see the sniper’s nest online, or by visiting the museum where they preserved it behind glass.

The following frame is from the Alkin’s photo taken shortly after the neck wound shot.

If you zoom in, you see both the JFK reaction and Jackie Kennedy grabbing for JFK’s arm. This indicates the shot was fired before this location in the above photo. The current location in the photo is just past the TSBD. Backing it up to the location of the shot, you can again verify the steep angle from the TSBD sixth floor window.  

When you review the evidence we have, it does not support the first shots coming from this location. It would be much more logical to shoot inline with Elm street rather than a location where the target is transverse to the viewing field. This review is a focus on the technical aspects of this complicated crime. It adds more doubt to the theory of the Sniper’s nest as the location for the shooting, especially for the initial shots.

Sometimes reading about the assassination you come across something that just blows your mind. For those that don’t know Lattimer is a big line nutter. And a urologist. And he did some shit to prove Oswald alone that was bogus af. Like the drawing I’ll attach at the end. Here’s a few more fun facts about Lattimer.

1. The first medical specialist (a urologist) Not affiliated with the US Governmentto examine the medical evidence
2. Lattimer was a consulting physician to defendants at the Nuremberg trials
3. Lattimer was a full bird Army colonel
4. Lattimer had a collection of items that included Napoleon’s dick and Goring’s extra cyanide capsule (one was all Goring needed)
5. He was J Edgar Hoover’s urologist

What The Fk

About the photo—that entry point looks like about C3. Hey you can’t expect a urologist to know cervical and thoracic anatomy now, can you?

Armed with his .38, Ruby tried to gain access to where Oswald was being held.

hi r/history! I'm Kaitlyn Tiffany, a staff writer at The Atlantic, and author of The Housewives Underground, out this week from Crown.

The stars of the book are three women—Sylvia Meagher, Shirley Martin, and Maggie Field—who were so diligent about dismantling the dreaded Warren Report that they changed the course of American history. These women studied the government's evidence for years, drove down to Dallas to conduct their own interviews, annoyed J. Edgar Hoover, and were mocked by the press for their dedication. This book is an effort to rediscover their lives and work.

I'll be here on Thursday June 25 at 2 PM Eastern, answering questions about the JFK assassination, the skeptics who interrogated the official story, the longterm effects of that mystery on the American psyche, and any other related topics.
