A study suggests the 'grassy knoll' JFK assassination theory is bogus.
When dressmaker Abraham Zapruder brought his camera to see President John F. Kennedy’s motorcade pass through Dealey Plaza in Dallas on November 22, 1963, he could never have suspected that he’d witness an assassination—or that his home movie would become one of the most watched and examined movies of all time. Even today, the Zapruder film is seen as evidence in countless conspiracy theories about who shot the president.
The film was used as evidence in the case against Lee Harvey Oswald, who shot Kennedy from a sixth-floor window at the Texas School Book Depository. When the Warren Commission issued its report on the assassination in 1964, it concluded that Oswald had shot the president from behind.
A study published in the journal Helios corroborates that conclusion. Nicholas Nalli, senior research scientist at IMSG, Inc., created a model of the mechanics of the gunshot wound itself to explain where the bullet may have come from.

This area is a hill on the north side of Elm Street near some concrete steps and topped by a 5-foot wooden stockade fence.
In the immediate aftermath of the shooting, police officers and spectators ran to the grassy knoll, from where some witnesses believed the shots had originated, but no sniper was found.
