Dr. John Nichols contrasted the Zapruder film, noting Kennedy appears to fall back as Connally is not shown in some frames, challenging the commission’s first-shot theory. The trial continued into its fifth week with questions about Clay Bertrand and the roles of Shaw, Oswald, and others in the Dallas assassination inquiry.
