How many bullets were fired at John F Kennedy?

Answer 1

According to the autopsy report in the warren commission, the entry wound in the neck area of JFK was indeed 6.5 mm in diameter. But, the entry wound of the fatal head shot was 6 mm. That obviously could not have been made by Oswald's ammunition. Plus, the entry angle was all wrong to have come from up above where Oswald was perched. The xrays, again according to the doctors in the report, showed fragments as the bullet fragmented after striking the president's head. Oswald was using full metal jacket ammunition, which will pierce the body, and continue through it without fragmenting, as it did on the shot that went Through the president's neck, through the front seat, and into, and through governor Connelly, ending up in his thigh. So, the question is: where did that fatal head shot come from, and who fired it??

Answer 2

Lee Harvey Oswald fired at least three shots, as most witnesses testified to hearing three gunshots. The first shot missed and most people believed it to be a car backfiring or a firecracker. The second shot went through the President's back and out his throat then continued to penetrated Governor Connally's back, chest, right wrist and left thigh. This is the moment in the famous Zapruder film when the President curls his arms up over his throat. The third and final shot hit the President in the head and made a "fist-sized wound" in the right side of his head.
