Editing Warren Commission (section)

==Conclusions of the report==
The report concluded that:

# The shots which killed President Kennedy and wounded Governor Connally were fired from the sixth-floor window at the southeast corner of the Texas School Book Depository.
# President Kennedy was first struck by a bullet which entered at the back of his neck and exited through the lower front portion of his neck, causing a wound which would not necessarily have been lethal. The President was struck by a second bullet, which entered the right-rear portion of his head, causing a massive and fatal wound.
# Governor Connally was struck by a bullet which entered on the right side of his back and traveled downward through the right side of his chest, exiting below his right nipple. This bullet then passed through his right wrist and entered his left thigh then it caused a superficial wound.
# There is no credible evidence that the shots were fired from the Triple Underpass, ahead of the motorcade, or from any other location.
# The weight of the evidence indicates that there were three shots fired.
# Although it is not necessary to any essential findings of the Commission to determine just which shot hit Governor Connally, there is very persuasive evidence from the experts to indicate that the same bullet which pierced the President's throat also caused Governor Connally's wounds. However, Governor Connally's testimony and certain other factors have given rise to some difference of opinion as to this probability but there is no question in the mind of any member of the Commission that all the shots which caused the President's and Governor Connally's wounds were fired from the sixth-floor window of the Texas School Book Depository.
# The shots which killed President Kennedy and wounded Governor Connally were fired by Lee Harvey Oswald.
# Oswald killed Dallas Police Patrolman [[J. D. Tippit]] approximately 45 minutes after the assassination.
# Ruby entered the basement of the Dallas Police Department and killed Lee Harvey Oswald and there is no evidence to support the rumor that Ruby may have been assisted by any members of the Dallas Police Department.
# The Commission has found no evidence that either Lee Harvey Oswald or Jack Ruby was part of any conspiracy, domestic or foreign, to assassinate President Kennedy.
# The Commission has found no evidence of conspiracy, subversion, or disloyalty to the U.S. Government by any Federal, State, or local official.
# The Commission could not make any definitive determination of Oswald's motives. 
# The Commission believes that recommendations for improvements in Presidential protection are compelled by the facts disclosed in this investigation.<ref>{{cite web |title=Chapter 1 |url=https://www.archives.gov/research/jfk/warren-commission-report/chapter-1#conclusions |publisher=National Archives |work=Warren Commission Report |language=en |date=September 24, 1964}} {{PD-notice}}</ref>
