The Doctor Who Tried To Save JFK Breaks Silence: ‘The Magic Bullet Didn’t Hit Him At All’

It’s been over six decades since President John F. Kennedy was assassinated, yet the mystery around his death is still far from solved. Every few years, new testimonies surface, stirring fresh debates, new theories, and one haunting question: What really happened on that November day in Dallas?

One of the most recent voices to join this conversation is that of Dr. Don Curtis. He was only 26 years old in 1963 when he found himself trying to save the life of the most powerful man in America. For reasons still unclear, he was never asked to testify. But now, nearly 62 years later, the doctor is finally breaking his silence.

At a recent hearing before the House Oversight Committee, Dr. Curtis recounted the moment he walked into the ER at Parkland Memorial Hospital. The president had already passed before anything could be done, but what struck Dr. Curtis and stayed with him for a lifetime were the details that didn’t make it into the official story. JFK had a fatal wound to the head, yes. But there was also a wound to his throat, one that raised more questions than answers. And when Representative Tim Burchett asked about the infamous “magic bullet” theory, Dr. Curtis didn’t hesitate. “Magic bullet—was not—didn’t strike the president at all,” he said.

From what Dr. Curtis observed, the idea that one bullet could enter JFK’s back, exit through his throat, then go on to injure Texas Governor John Connally, all while keeping its shape, defies reason. This theory, used by the Warren Commission to support the conclusion that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone, has long been criticized by experts and skeptics alike. But now, someone who was actually there is calling it what it is: impossible.

According to Dr. Curtis, it’s likely that there were multiple shooters

Dr. Curtis didn’t stop at dismissing the magic bullet. He went further, suggesting that not one, not two, but four bullets may have been fired that day. His theory is that at least one came from the railroad trestle, southwest of the motorcade, and struck the president before he was even visible from the now sixth-floor window of the Texas School Book Depository.

If his calculation of the bullet’s trajectory is accurate, it challenges the long-standing narrative that Oswald acted alone. In fact, it supports what the House Select Committee on Assassinations concluded years ago: there was likely more than one shooter. And here’s what makes it all the more powerful. Dr. Curtis isn’t some internet theorist chasing shadows. He’s a respected medical professional who stood inches from JFK’s lifeless body. After more than 60 years, he’s finally speaking.
