221. I believe you're correct that some of the ideas in "The Men Who Killed Kennedy" were part
of Davis' theories, but I only saw a few hours of that series.

Regarding the bullet points (pun intended) that you make. You are hypothesizing that when/if the bullets were found they would have been allowed to be tested or used as evidence. What if the conspirators knew that someone inside would be there to deal with that aspect of the killing? When an assassin is aware that there are persons in place who are going to perform their functions to cover for him, why would he worry about anything other than the kill shot? If these guys were pros, which I believe they were, they knew that their role was to shoot and someone else's role was to cover up their existence. Or maybe they didn't know that specifically, but they knew that they were going to be covered for.

I believe that the Doctors and nurses at Parkland all stated that there was at least one wound with an entry point but no exit. That would have been a bullet to test; however, the story of the magic bullet was used to belie the existence of another bullet--the one that would have been in the President's body and that would have been found during the autopsy.

I have not read the Bugliosi book so I cannot address the validity of his points. I started reading "Ultimate Sacrifice" by Waldron and Hartmann, but it's a tome and I'm only just getting into it.
