Unwanted Facts: Facts that Most Books on the Lincoln Assassination Ignore

[L Verge]

1. In case I missed your previous postings, Mr. Griffith, please cite in full for me the exact pathology report regarding the angle of the bullet as it entered Booth's neck. Also, I do not believe that the Booth vertebrae are privy to full, hands-on inspection - and Dr. Arnold's credentials do not appear high enough on any totem pole to grant him such access. And, even though I agree with Rick and Wild Bill regarding the unlikely possibility that Booth could have shot himself through the back of the neck, it would seem to me that the extreme downward angle of the bullet that you are trying to sell us the idea of would have depended on Booth's right arm being much longer than normal in order for him to get his elbow and upper arm raised up high enough to cause such a downward path.

2. Have you stopped to consider that Weichmann gave full details long after the trial because he was not questioned about such things before and during the proceedings -- and was smart enough to keep his mouth shut? "Don't ask, don't tell" has been a standard form of self-preservation long before the 1865 Conspiracy Trial and the late-20th century gender debates.

3. Perhaps both you and Beast Butler did not fully understand the concept of "conspiracy" as applied to the Lincoln conspirators?
