JFK Assassination: Inconsistencies Haunt Warren Commission Report | Dr. Paul T. Carter 10/4/25

Summary: Kennedy Assassination - Warren Commission Inconsistencies:

- (00:00-01:39) Oliver Stone's 1991 film "JFK" prompted Congress to pass the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection Act of 1992, establishing the Assassination Records Review Board (ARRB). Jeremy Gun served on the ARRB for four years as director of research, general counsel, and executive director, collecting evidence from 1992-1998.

- (01:39-03:34) In his 2023 book "The Final Witness," Secret Service agent Paul Landis claimed he found a pristine bullet on the back seat of Kennedy's limousine and placed it on Kennedy's gurney at Parkland Hospital. This contradicts the "magic bullet theory" that assumed the bullet was found on Governor Connally's stretcher. Landis waited 60 years to reveal this, citing extreme trauma; the Warren Commission never interviewed him.

- (04:49-06:52) Autopsy doctor James Joseph Humes admitted under oath that he burned his original handwritten autopsy notes in his fireplace the night after the procedure. Humes stated he destroyed blood-stained notes to prevent them from becoming macabre artifacts, yet preserved other blood-stained documents prepared by colleague Dr. Boswell. The Warren Commission never showed Humes the official autopsy photographs, and he had difficulty identifying details in them when Gun presented them decades later.

- (08:02-10:19) Sandra Spencer, a Navy petty officer who developed autopsy photographs at the White House Laboratory, testified she didn't recognize the official autopsy photos in the National Archives. She described developing images showing Kennedy's body in a "reverent" state with closed eyes and mouth, minimal blood, and no massive head damage—completely different from the official photos. The paper used for the official photos didn't match the paper Spencer was using at the Naval Photographic Center, and the photographs Spencer processed have never been found.

- (11:10-12:51) Jeremy Gun believes the Warren Commission genuinely believed Oswald acted alone and rushed to reassure the public, but this approach "looks like a whitewash when the facts aren't clear." Initially 90% of Americans believed the Warren Report; within two years it dropped to 36%, and today less than 25% accept its conclusions. Gun emphasized that transparency was sacrificed for expedience under President Johnson's pressure to conclude quickly.

- (13:36-19:45) Agent Landis' 2023 account varies from his original 1963 statements—he initially reported hearing only two shots (now says three) and didn't mention entering the trauma room or finding the bullet. Skeptics, including author Gerald Posner, question how memories could improve after 60 years. Landis acknowledges the stress and chaos prevented him from reporting accurately at the time and admits his "quiet life has kind of disappeared" after going public.

'Kennedy Assassination: Inconsistencies Haunt Warren Commission Report' | Dr. Paul T. Carter | Oct 4, 2025 | https://youtu.be/6TbnDUtCfH4?si=XT4szltGDFD4_EAY

Oliver Stone’s 1991 movie JFK did more than entertain wild-eyed audiences about JFK assassination conspiracy theories, it is widely credited with the U.S. Congress passing the very next year a public law called the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection Act of 1992, which directed the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) to establish a collection of records to be known as the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection.

This Congressional act additionally established, as an independent agency, the Assassination Records Review Board (ARRB). The ARRB collected evidence starting in 1992, then produced its final report in 1998, to which I also provide a link. Dr. Jeremy Gunn was on this Review Board for four years, first as its Director of Research and General Counsel, and then its Executive Director. Today you will hear Dr. Gunn document startling inconsistencies in the Warren report, it is quite eye-opening. The audio clip with Dr. Gunn is from a 2013 news story – 2013 being the 50th anniversary of JFKs assassination - called “Inconsistencies Haunt Official Record of Kennedy's Death.”

Additionally in this video, you learn – in case you missed it - about Secret Service agent Paul Landis who in his 2023 book “The Final Witness” claimed publicly for the first time that he found a pristine bullet lodged in the back of the seat behind where Kennedy was sitting and placed it on John F. Kennedy's stretcher at the hospital. This account fuels speculation of a second gunman. Many were critical of why Landis waited 60 years after the assassination to publicly reveal this. He cited his extreme trauma from witnessing the assassination as the reason he suppressed his memories. The Warren Commission never interviewed him, and his initial report after the assassination did not mention finding the bullet, a point noted by many skeptics. I play a short news feature interview of Landis.
