1:00:00
...all possible causes of death.
1:00:02
I had the cause of death.
1:00:03
Your Honor, please direct the witness
to answer my question.
1:00:07
Why did Colonel Finck not dissect
the tract of the bullet wound?
1:00:10
I heard Dr. Humes stating...
1:00:13
Thas enough. Thas enough.
1:00:15
Is duly noted.
1:00:17
Les check the back.
1:00:26
I can feel the end of the wound
with my finger.
1:00:28
That won't be necessary.
1:00:33
Watch the ear!
1:00:35
Shot in the back. Cheap crime.
1:00:38
He said:
1:00:39
Who's in charge here?
1:00:41
I am.
1:00:43
I don't remember his name.
1:00:45
It was quite crowded.
1:00:47
And when you are called to look
at the wounds of the dead President...
1:00:51
...you don't ask people for their names
and who they are.
1:00:54
But you were a qualified pathologist.
Was the Army General?
1:00:58
No.
1:01:00
But you took his orders.
1:01:02
Yes.
1:01:03
So he was directing the autopsy.
No.
1:01:06
There were others.
1:01:08
There were admirals.
1:01:11
When you're a Lieutenant Colonel,
you follow orders.
1:01:15
It is not our business to discuss this
with anyone outside this room.
1:01:20
As I recall, Admiral Kenney,
Navy Surgeon General...
1:01:23
...specifically told us
not to discuss the case.
1:01:28
A lot of people were deciding
what was private...
1:01:32
...none of the American people's business.
1:01:35
The chief pathologist, Commander Humes...
1:01:37
...by his own admission,
voluntarily burned his autopsy notes.
1:01:40
President Johnson orders
the blood-soaked limousine...
1:01:43
...filled with bullet holes and clues
to be washed and rebuilt.
1:01:47
He sends Connally's bloody suit
to the cleaners.
1:01:51
The Justice Department denied this office
access to the autopsy photos.
1:01:56
When we finally get a court order
to examine Kennedy's brain...
