Creative Speculation

Nurse Audrey Bell retrieved a bullet or bullet fragment from the scene of Connally's surgery and it was identified as coming from Connally's thigh. It was put in a small envelope and handed to Dallas Police officer Bobby Nolan. Nolan handed this to DP Captain Fritz on the evening of the assassination shortly before 8 PM (the "magic bullet CE399 was already in Washington at that time). An FBI report written the next day discusses an interview with Nolan regarding "a bullet fragment removed from the left thigh of Governor Connally".

Nurse Bell also handled four fragments taken from Connally's wrist. (these fragments alone make the Single Bullet Theory a non-starter). Bell passed these to an FBI agent.

The FBI, apparently in an attempt to make the bullet or bullet fragment from Connally's thigh disappear, later claimed that Bell passed the fragments ( now reported by the FBI as a single fragment) to Officer Nolan - thus, according to the FBI, a bullet or fragment removed from Connally's thigh was actually a single fragment from his wrist and it was simply a case of confusion or mistake. But there was no mistake, as analysis of the evidence reveals: a bullet or bullet fragment was retrieved from Connally's thigh at Parklands Hospital.
