Oswald in the doorway: the blog of the Oswald Innocence Campaign, by Ralph Cinque

On the left, it shows how Jackie's hair looked on 11/22. You can see that it looked nothing like how it looks in the Croft photo, which was a dead ringer for how her hair looked in mid-January on television, when she was in mourning.

So, her face was pasted in there, and it resulted in a degree of cervical rotation that is uncomfortable for me, a former chiropractor, to look at. That is about the limit of cervical rotation: 80 degrees. But, just because people can force that much rotation doesn't mean that they do it in daily life. It's uncomfortable to twist your neck that far. So, what people do instead is start rotating their shoulders. So, they get where they need to be by combining cervical rotation with turning the whole torso. She wouldn't do what she appears to be doing there.

But, why did they replace her face in the Croft photo? It wasn't because they wanted a morose look. Of course not. I believe it was because Jackie was already turning towards her husband. And that they couldn't have because, supposedly, nothing had happened yet and all was well.

But, didn't that morose look of hers give it away? Yes, and I'm sure they combed the images from 11/22 trying to find something better. Using what they did had to be a last resort.

And if you read Jackie's testimony, she said that she heard a terrible noise, and then she turned and looked at husband and saw that he had a "quizzical" look on his face. So, this may have been that very moment. But, her eyes on him meant that something was wrong with him. So, they had to replace it. 

And I will tell you, as a retired chiropractor, that JFK is showing us in the Croft photo that he was in trouble. He was raising his chin and pinching his head back on his heck. That is a classic stress reaction.

I put the other image of JFK in for comparison. In it, you can see that JFK's posterior cervical muscles are lengthened. He isn't contracting them. He is relaxed. But, in the Croft photo, he is in a startle with his posterior cervical muscles clinching. Would you please compare the two? So, on the right, he is relaxed, and in Croft, he is stressed like hell. And it's because he had been shot. And if it had been a regular bullet, he would have known that he was shot, and he would have taken action. But, it wasn't a regular bullet. It felt more like a mosquito bite according to CIA Director William Colby. Then, rapid changes were occurring to his mind and body. I'm sure he was totally overwhelmed. What a nightmare the last 12 seconds of his life were.
