Hi again, David - APPRECIATE this analysis - can we surmise that one BIG reason that vestibule-door glass WAS removed, is its revelation of bullet directionality being from INSIDE? Also - really want to hear MUCH more about Geffen; he's increasingly presenting as a shadowy character now himself....

Doesn't add up with Chapman's claim that John "just disappeared". Surely if he'd collapsed in the driveway then MDC would have noticed this and mentioned somebody or some people came out or rushed over to help him and took him inside. If John did fall there, then it must have taken more than one person to carry him up the steps and all the way to the back office. Why would nobody admit to doing this? OK, moving him might have decreased his chances of survival had he not been so very badly injured, but if the reason was to get him to a place of safety (why else?) it's odd nobody would claim "My instinct was to get John inside and away from any more danger and then try to save him. I didn't realise his wounds were that bad."

"For me this is further confirmation that John fell instantly in the Dakota driveway after being shot." (David Whelan)

The fact that the bullet holes in the vestibule door glass panel(s) were only about three feet from the ground suggests that Lennon's killer was standing on the upper steps to the vestibule pointing his gun at J.L. below as he opened the door. Am I wrong about this? Was John shot in the driveway (not by Chapman), or inside the vestibule? If the latter, how did a pool of blood get deposited on the driveway. Clarification, please?

You can't rely on bullets following a direct path when passing through a human body. They will most likely bounce.

My mistake. The bullet holes in the vestibule door's glass panel were higher up - not 3 ft.

Dear David, your explorations are relevant, the conclusions - I dunno. Your reference to Jann Wenner as being editor of Playboy, is a mistake a fact-checker or editor would have corrected. You still can do that.
