And how does that upend anything? That it fell out already in the car does not seem dramatically different from it falling out after shaking Kennedy a bit.

> how does that upend anything?

If the story in the article is true, the bullet Landis found - i.e. the famous "magic bullet" - could not have wounded both Kennedy and Governor Connally and have been shot from the Book Depository (to Kennedy's rear) as the so-called single-bullet theory[0] requires, so it upends the Warren Commission's version of the assassination completely.

There is nothing magical about the bullet. The governor was sitting in front and to the right of Kennedy as you can see here:

look at the arms. Kennedy is resting his arm on the car frame and Connally cannot. The seat he is in is not lined up with where Kennedy is. The bullet needs no magic to go in a straight line.

According to the Warren Commission, the bullet was on Connally's stretcher and presumably fell out of Connally.

So if true (not that we can really know at this point) if the pristine bullet was retrieved from Kennedy's car then yes, that would upend everything.

They were in the same car

I don't know about that, but I do know that Vanity Fair seems to have an entire department devoted to the The Kennedy's.
