Which, in fact, is currently the argument I'm having.
I can't seem to get through that planting the bullet before anyone knew what wounds Connally had suffered (which would have had to be the case) meant that in all likelihood there would be a bullet inside of Connally as well, or in the car.

In addition, presuming multiple shooters with different weapons, how on earth can you be sure to prevent any of the pieces falling into the hands of the forensics people, who would quickly identify something that was not from a Carcanno bullet?

Speaking of which, can anyone tell me what other bullet bits were found? I think there was a bit from the one that missed, and part of one in the car?
