Las Vegas physician Dr. John Lattimer, president of the American Urological Association, endorses the Warren Commission findings. He asserts both bullets came from Oswald’s rifle and cites his interviews with the Kennedy autopsy team and ballistic evidence supporting Oswald as the sole shooter. He argues Kennedy was shot from behind, matching his head’s backward left recoil.
