THE WANDERING WOUNDS OF KENNEDY AND CONNALLY copyright 1982 by Frank O. Bennett
Editor's Note: Frank is a new researcher and we welcome tiis work to TCI. He is a consulting engineer,
mathematician and draftsman of Tulsa, Oklahoma who became seriously interested in the Kennedy assassination
only about four years ago with a study of a single frame of the Zapruder film at a time when he still believed
the Warren Report. His study and mathematical analysis of evidence mark him as a serious researcher, and he is
catching up fast on information about the case. He says, "Apparently few mathematicians have worked on the
investigation and the assassination data. Mathematics is the most precise science of all and it is quite clear that
mathematically, or otherwise, there is no case against Oswald."
He originally submitted a 20-page article to TCI in November 1980, but his research materials at that time were
quite limited, so many of his calculations and conclusions were off because they were based on Warren Report
information now known to be inaccurate. Newer information that's not easily available to the general public
negated his some of his careful scientific methodology.
But much of his work had merit, and we wanted to publish it. After some lengthy correspondence and phone
calls, Frank finally agreed that minor errors might overshadow his main point: the HSCA juggled the wound locations
so the Magic Bullet would fly. To protect his credibility and ours we have done some editing of his article
(as we would for any responsible researcher) and have eliminated most of the first 11 pages.
Let us know what you think of Frank's article.
^ Considerable a t t e n t i o n has been given here, with good reason, to the statements of the

t h i s point in the a s s a s s i n a t i o n . The HbCA mayhap saw quite correctly that the Commission's
case, as presented, was a puerile exercise in fantasy. Although subscribing to the same
theory, the House Committee set out to prove by mathematical data and photographic evidence
that the two men were so aligned as to receive a single bullet which would not change
angles or a i r e c t i o n . To t h i s end i t called upon the aid and resources of the National Aeronautics
And bpace Administration (MAbA), the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the U.
b Geological burvey (UbGo), a Photographic eviaence l a n e l incluuing photo experts using
advanced photographic technology, and a panel of nine forensic pathologists. A photograph
taken by hobt Croft played an important role in the photographic s t u d i e s . The HoCA compiled
some impressive exhibits but failed miserably in i t s efforts to prove anything.
The panel of pathologists, with b r . hichael Baden (chief medical examiner of New York
Citv) acting as spokesman, was asked if Kennedy ana Connally were properly aligned to have
a s i n g l - bullet cause t h e i r wounas, with only ur. Cyril Wecht dissenting the pathologists
