JFK’s Head Wounds

by

This talk by Dr. David Mantik is part of the online conference The National-Security State and the Kennedy Administration.

Imagine: The dilemma for the autopsy pathologists on 11-22-63
Their Solution:

“Improving” the autopsy photographs and X-rays
Writing a misleading autopsy report (multiple times)
Elusive consistency on the posterior skull entry site
Pretending not to know about the throat wound
Including “eyewitness” statements in the autopsy report
Also: They did not see the Harper Fragment

The Autopsy Radiologist: John Ebersole—my recorded interview (now at NARA)
The Radiology Technologist: Jerrol Custer

Subsequent Government Radiologists:
How they misled us
What they missed

The Harper Fragment: 15 Clues for its Occipital Origin
These are all consistent with a frontal shot.

David Mantik is a board-certified radiation oncologist, who (while still young) served on the tenure-track physics faculty at the University of Michigan. He also directed the residency training program at Loma Linda University, where he used protons, electrons, and X-rays to treat cancer. He received his Ph.D. in physics from the University of Wisconsin, his MD from the University of Michigan, completed a post-doctoral fellowship at Stanford University and held a Junior Faculty Clinical Fellowship at the University of Southern California. He has visited the JFK artifacts at the National Archives on nine separate days. While there he made hundreds of measurements on the extant JFK autopsy X-rays. His e-book is JFK’s Head Wounds.
