In reply to the discussion: Should we really give the whole country a pass on reason when it comes to JFK conspiracies? [View all]DanTex
(20,709 posts)The house committee reached exactly the same conclusions as the Warren Commission on everything except for whether there was a second shooter. Based on audio evidence alone, they concluded that there was a second shooter, who fired one shot and missed. But they agreed that
-- The CIA/FBI/KGB/Mob/Cuba were not involved.
-- Oswald fired three shots, and he was the only one who hit the president.
-- The single bullet theory was correct.
-- The autopsy evidence was not flawed, and conclusively showed the that bullets entered JFK from behind.
The audio evidence was later disproved when it was discovered that the recording used by the HSCA actually took place a minute after the shootings, a finding that was confirmed by a panel of scientists organized by the National Academy of Sciences. Which means that, for all practical purposes, the House investigation supported the same lone nut theory as the Warren Commission.
