Product Description
The doctors who tried to save President John F. Kennedy at Parkland Hospital in November of 1963 agreed--either out of respect or fear--not to publish what they had seen, heard, and felt. Then in 1990, one of the Dallas surgeons who worked on JFK in Trauma Room One, Dr. Charles Crenshaw, decided after much deliberation that the American people ought to know the truth. "The wounds to Kennedys head and throat that I examined were caused by bullets that struck him from the front, not the back, as the public has been led to believe," says Crenshaw. When the first edition of this book was published in 1992, under the title JFK: Conspiracy of Silence, Crenshaw revealed what he never had to opportunity to tell the Warren Commission. In the aftermath, the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) called Crenshaws book "a fabrication." But JAMAs claim did not hold up in court and Crenshaw subsequently prevailed in a defamation suit against JAMA. In the process, a number of new medical disclosures and discoveries have emerged on the startling medical cover-up of the JFK assassination.

 An bullet entering the head from the front proves the killing of JFK was a conspiracy. November 11, 2007
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book is a revision of the book by Dr Crenshaw with Jens Hanson and J. Gary Davis;with the title "JFK Conspiracy of Silence".After that book was published in 1992,the authors were slandered both personally and professionally by the Journal of American Medical Association.The authors filed a suit for slander and malice and the court ordered a monetary settlement by JAMA. The revision,"Trauma Room One" covers this suit and the results.
There have been thousands of books,articles,documentaries, films,investigations,commissions,etc about the killing of President Kennedy. There are countless motives,connections,theories,and conclusions about who did the killing,why,and who was behind it. No murder in the US has received more coverage and few even today believe the whole story has been revealed.
Many conspiracies have been generated around motives ,but the most important conspiracy of all, is whether or not JFK was hit in the front or both front and back of the head. If he received hits in both the front and back;then there had to be a conspiracy.
Dr.Crenshaw attended to JFK when he was brought to Parkland Hospital. He ,as well as other attending Doctors,were silent for several reasons about the President's wounds.There was no autopsy done at Parkland Hospital because the body was taken away by Feds and taken back to Washington,where an autopsy was carried out many,many hours later.The whys and wherefores of this is covered in the book and in many other books,etc.
What is different here is that Dr.Crenshaw,felt he could no longer remain silent about what he saw as wounds as they tried to save his life and what was reported and accepted by the Warren Commission.
Dr.Crenshaw unequivocally maintains there was one or more bullet entries in the front of the skull and a large section of the right rear of the skull had been destroyed by an exit of the bullet.
If the skull and other evidence is still available it should still be possible to determine if the Doctor was right. Much has been said about the autopsy in Washington and the state of the evidence.Furthermore ,there has been a 75 year freeze put on access to the evidence and investigations.Dr.Crenshaw died in 2001 .At least he is on record for what wounds he saw to the President.
One day,it may be resolved,and if Dr.Crenshaws assertations are confirmed to be true;that being there was a frontal bullet entry,then the murder of JFK was a conspiracy;and at the highest level of power in the US Government.
A very interesting read.
Crenshaw sued JAMA for libel and won the case!! August 27, 2007

There is no way Dr. Crenshaw is going to risk his reputation and credibility by lying to make a couple of bucks.his observations have been confirmed by other doctors who were in the trauma room that day!!an exit wound in the back of the head and an entrance wound in the front of the neck!!the only entity that has lost thier credibilty is the WC who lied to the american people
Interesting Personal Account September 23, 2006
Dr. Crenshaw was a resident in the Parkland Hospital Emergency Room on the day in 1963 when President Kennedy was brought in mortally wounded. Dr. Crenshaw assisted in providing emergency care to Kennedy and was present when Kennedy was pronounced dead. Crenshaw saw the wounds on Kennedy's body in Dallas and makes a significant contribution to the Kennedy Assassination lore by describing them. Crenshaw saw a bullet entry wound on the front of Kennedy's neck (that was later obliterated by a tracheotomy incision) and also saw a large gaping exit wound on the occipital skull. Those are 'fighting words' to Oswald fans because they were inflicted by shots from the front, and Oswald could have only shot from the rear. Dr. Crenshaw generally provides an excellent first-person account of the goings-on at Parkland Hospital on that terrible day, including the confrontation at gunpoint between the Secret Service Agents who were attempting to leave with the body and the coroner who was attempting to retain possession of the body long enough to perform an autopsy. Needless to say, the Secret Service agents with their drawn weapons won the day and the body was whisked away to Air Force One where new-President Johnson could keep tabs on it on the way back to Washington DC. Crenshaw's account of the confrontation is highly-entertaining readings. This book is a groundbreaking book that is required reading for anyone interested in the historical aspects of the Kennedy Assassination.

People who were actually inside or near Trauma Room One that day confirm that Crenshaw was never in position to see what he claims that he witnessed. There is doubt that Crenshaw even entered TR-1. One Parkland doctor I've talked to says Crenshaw simply made it up. The surgeons who attended JFK, Drs. Malcolm Perry and Robert McClelland, had to enlarge the president's throat exit wound for the tracheotomy, and Crenshaw's fabricated account obscures such facts--about events both at Parkland and at Bethesda. See When the News Went Live: Dallas 1963, and JFK: Breaking the News.
Another theory I have dismissed February 5, 2006

The frontal wound was one of an EXIT not entry. No support for Dr Crenshaw from me.
