Another thing that hasn't been brought up is the velocity screen immediately behind the goat, the imprint of the bullet left on it was almost the length of the bullet.
Mr. Specter. What does that indicate?
Dr. Olivier. This indicates that the bullet was now no longer traveling straight but either traveling sideways or tumbling end over end at the time it hit the screen.
Mr. Specter. And that was after the point of exit from the goat?
Dr. Olivier. Yes.
Mr. Specter. Are there any other conclusions which you found from the studies on the goat?
Dr. Olivier. No, I believe that is all I can think of right at this moment.
Mr. Specter. In the regular course of your work for the U.S. Army, do you have occasion to perform tests on parts of human cadavers to determine the effects of bullets on human beings?
Dr. Olivier. Yes, I do.
Mr. Specter. And was a series of tests performed under your supervision on the portions of human cadavers simulated to the wound inflicted on the wrist of Governor Connally?
