5.0 out of 5 stars Hard Evidence, October 25, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Best Evidence Video Book Jfk [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I saw this video first about 9-10 years ago..Witnesses are interviewed from Bethesda Naval Hospital..what they say is extremely chilling and incompatible with what the Warren Commission said. The Book goes into greater detail to show Body Alteration as a fact..not another theory.

5.0 out of 5 stars Look and See for Yourself, April 20, 2006

This review is from: Best Evidence Video Book Jfk [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The author notes that what you believe happened in Dallas on 11-22-63 depends on what evidence you believe. (Or what evidence you've been told to believe.) In courtrooms, juries are presented with conflicting evidence; they decide which evidence is credible. This is called the "best evidence"; the jury decides the facts.

One question on the assassination is the discrepancy between the wounds recorded in Dallas (shots from the front), and the wounds recorded in Washington DC (shots from the rear). Lifton's book says "surgery to the head" occurred to change the evidence. But this would have to be quickly and expertly done. A simpler solution would be the use of a "body double", a replacement for the body of JFK that could be quickly switched. This would explain why the body in Washington was in a body bag while the body in Dallas was in a casket.

There is another way to test this theory. Some books contain the Washington DC autopsy photos. The pictures of the President show a thick faced JFK who looks like other 45-year olds. The face of the body in the autopsy appears about 30 years old, in my opinion. Look and see for yourself. If you agree, this proves a conspiracy in killing JFK. As others have pointed out, while one "lone gunman" can kill anyone, it takes a group of conspirators to cover it up for decades.

3.0 out of 5 stars needs an update, February 22, 2004

This review is from: Best Evidence [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This video has not been updated or revised since it was released ten years ago--and that video was a reprint of interviews conducted by Lifton in the late '80s. Some of the material has been disproved, and, honestly, Mr. Lifton is not that engaging a narrator. However, to those new to the JFK assassination investigation, there are some critical things that will be introduced: the direction of the headshot; the probability of a pre-autopsy surgery to skew the autopsy's findings; this mishandling of the chain of evidence; and the autopsists' own credentials. Beware, some of the photos are gruesome if you've never seen the autopsy photos before.
