"Ford tampered with report on JFK shooting"
Kate Watson-Smyth - Thursday 3 July 1997 00:02
The former US president, Gerald Ford, altered a key sentence in the Warren Commission Report to strengthen its conclusion that John F. Kennedy was killed by a single bullet, it emerged yesterday.
The effect of his editing was to suggest that a single bullet struck the assassinated president in the neck and severely wounded Texas Governor John Connally - a crucial element in its controversial finding that Lee Harvey Oswald was the sole gunman.
Ford's changes tend to support the single-bullet theory by making a specific point that the bullet entered Kennedy's body "at the back of his neck" rather than in his uppermost back, as the commission staff originally wrote. Ford said last night that it was a small change, one intended to clarify the report and not to alter history.
