Secrets of a Homicide: JFK Assassination is a continuing project involving computer analysis
of photographic evidence in the infamous 1963 crime by award-winning computer animator
Dale K. Myers. Through a series of graphic reports, Secrets of a Homicide seeks to educate
and enlighten students, scholars and historians by providing a unique geometric and
technological perspective on the assassination. The results of the Secrets of a Homicide project
have been cited in many publications and broadcast by television networks worldwide
including ABC News, The BBC, The Discovery Channel, and The History Channel. Graphic
reports available on the Internet include: Computer Reconstruction of the JFK Assassination,
Badge Man: A Photogrammetric Analysis of Moorman Photograph No.5 of the JFK
Assasination, and Epipolar Geometric Analysis of Amateur Films Related to Acoustics Evidence
in the John F. Kennedy Assassination. See, www.jfkfiles.com for more information.
AAAAACCCCCKKKKKNNNNNOOOOOWWWWWLLLLLEEEEEDDDDDGGGGGEEEEEMMMMMEEEEENNNNNTTTTTSSSSS
My grateful appreciation and thanks to all of those who helped bring this project to fruition
including, Stephan N. Barber, James C. Bowles, Francis Bronson, Megan Bryant,
Robert Erickson, Peter Jennings, Gary Mack, Mark Obenhaus, Tina Towner Pender,
Gus Russo, Steven D. Tilley, Todd W. Vaughan, Tom Yellin, and Thomas W. Young.
Cover Image
Composite image created from multiple frames from the Robert Hughes film. This is the way the 1979 House Select Committee on
Assassinations (HSCA) envisioned Dealey Plaza moments before the shooting. The presidential limousine, motorcycle escorts, and
Secret Service follow-up car (background) turn onto Elm Street at the base of the Texas School Book Depository. Motorcycle officer H.B.
McLain (foreground) trails the limousine by 237 feet. The committee concluded that McLain arrived at the next intersection in time to
transmit the sounds of gunfire over his open microphone. This report demonstrates that the committee’s scenario is false and that the
HSCA’s acoustic evidence of a conspiracy is invalid.

“…if it can be shown that there was no vehicle or person with a police radio near the
trajectory where I found it to be, then, that is impeaching evidence.” 1
Dr. James Barger, Lead Scientist, BBN, 2001
“If you could prove to me that there was no police officer in the place where he had to
be, you would falsify [the acoustics evidence].” 2
G. Robert Blakey, Chief Counsel, HSCA, 2003
SSSSSUUUUUMMMMMMMMMMAAAAARRRRRYYYYY
In 1979, the House Select Committee on Assassinations (HSCA) concluded that there was a
“high probability that two gunmen fired at President John F. Kennedy,” and therefore, Kennedy
was “probably assassinated as a result of a conspiracy.” 3
Their conclusion, which contradicted the 1964 Warren Commission’s conclusion that Lee
Harvey Oswald alone killed President Kennedy, was based largely on an acoustical analysis
of an eight-second segment of a Dallas police recording made of radio transmissions presumed
to have originated from a motorcycle within the presidential motorcade. Although the static-
filled recording contained no audible sounds that could be distinguished as being gunshots,
two acoustic research groups – James Barger, Scott Robinson, Edward Schmidt and Jared
Wolf of Bolt, Beranek and Newman, Inc. (BBN), and later, Mark Weiss and Ernest Aschkenasy
of Queens College (WA) – concluded that the recording contained four impulse sounds, which
they believed were probable gunshots.
According to these experts, three of the “gunshots” originated from the southeastern-most
sixth floor window of the Texas School Book Depository, while a fourth “gunshot” originated
from the southeast corner of the stockade fence atop the grassy knoll. The probability of a
grassy knoll shot was believed to be 95 percent.4
The acoustic experts predicted that the motorcycle with the open microphone was located
120 to 140 feet behind the presidential limousine at the time of the shooting. After a limited
review of the photographic record, the HSCA identified the motorcycle officer with the open
microphone as Dallas police officer H.B. McLain, who the committee alleged was “in the
approximate position of the transmitting microphone, as indicated by the acoustical analysis,”
and therefore was responsible for transmitting the gunshot sounds.5

The importance of the HSCA’s acoustic evidence cannot be over emphasized. It is the only
hard, physical evidence ever offered in support of a conspiracy over the course of the nearly
four-and-a-half decade assassination debate. Without it, there is no credible reason to believe
that anyone other than Lee Harvey Oswald fired shots at the Kennedy motorcade.
It is equally important to recognize that the conclusions of the HSCA acoustic experts hinge
on a very basic assumption – a police motorcycle, with an open microphone, was transmitting
the sound of the shots from four very specific locations at the time of the assassination. In
order for the HSCA’s acoustic evidence of conspiracy to have validity, a police motorcycle
must be present at the four specific locations and times predicted by the acoustic analysis. If
there is no motorcycle at the location and times predicted by their analysis, their conclusions
are, by default, invalid – plain and simple.
This research paper documents the use of computer technology, epipolar geometry,* and nine
amateur 8mm films of the assassination to construct a synchronized photographic record of
the shooting and determine the validity of the HSCA’s acoustic evidence of conspiracy.
The result is a definitive photographic record of the last 40-seconds of President Kennedy’s
life that demonstrates that no police motorcycles – including, Officer H.B. McLain’s – were
near the area designated by the HSCA’s acoustic experts, and consequently, the committee’s
acoustic evidence of a conspiracy in the Kennedy assassination is invalid.
HHHHHIIIIISSSSSTTTTTOOOOORRRRRYYYYY
In December, 1976, Gary Mack, the program director at KFJZ-FM radio in Forth Worth,
Texas, met with Penn Jones, Jr., the editor of the small town Midlothian Mirror newspaper
and a leading conspiracy theorist. Mack, who first became interested in the assassination
after the March, 1975, ABC television broadcast of the Zapruder film, later wrote, “We were
discussing exactly how the assassination occurred. He mentioned to me that radio
communications on one of two police channels (actually the main channel) were blocked for
five straight minutes beginning just a few seconds before the shots were fired. Most of the
Dallas officers were on Channel One, including the officers in the President’s motorcade.
Several officials and others in the procession were on the second channel, but most of the
activity was on channel one. Penn was of the opinion that the communications were jammed
on purpose… I asked Penn how this interference occurred. He said apparently someone had
left his microphone key depressed and it blocked the channel so no one could get through. I
asked where this ‘open microphone’ was located and he said they had assumed it was within
the motorcade because you could hear the motorcycle noise on the Dallas police tape… I told
Penn that if the officer’s motorcycle was in Dealey Plaza then certainly the sound of the
gunshots could be heard on the tape too. For some incredible reason no one had ever thought
