Single Bullet Theory/ Magic Bullet?
► The
single bullet theory (also known as the magic bullet
theory by the majority of critics and conspiracy
theorists) is the crucial element of the Warren
Commission theory that only one assassin was
responsible for the assassination of President John F.
Kennedy
The “pristine” bullet
Warren Commission
► The
President's Commission on the Assassination of
President Kennedy, known unofficially as The Warren
Commission, was established on November 29, 1963,
by Lyndon B. Johnson to investigate the assassination
of the U.S. President John F. Kennedy on November
22, 1963. It concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald acted
alone in killing Kennedy. The Commission's findings
have since proved extremely controversial and have
frequently been challenged.

The commission's determination was that:
it was likely that all injuries inside the limousine were
caused by only two bullets, and thus one shot likely missed
the motorcade, but it could not determine which of the
three. (The 1979 House Select Committee on
Assassinations agreed that two shots caused all the
injuries.)
the first shot to hit anyone struck President Kennedy in the
upper back, exited out his throat, and likely continued on
to cause all of Governor John Connally's injuries,
the second shot to hit anyone fatally struck Kennedy in the
head 4.8 to 5.6 seconds later.
