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

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.

Warren Commission continued

• 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.
