"I went out and bought ten lottery tickets and none of them won therefore nobody ever wins the lottery"
I watch this conspiracy porn for fun sometimes, but I've never seen them discuss why they believe the people orchestrating some complicated unknown scheme want people like this guy to believe it's a conspiracy.
"They" could have just claimed the patsy used a reasonable weapon so obviously it was part of the plan not just to take out Kirk but also to make guys like this sure it was a fake coverup. I think they know "...and they did it do drive a wedge between red-pill MAGA and trust-the-plan MAGA!1" is one step too far for their target audience.
Well from what’s been reported, since the shooter was elevated and to the side; the bullet was traveling down and at an angle. It pierced his neck and struck his spine where it deflected down into his abdomen. It struck 6 vertebrae and shattered with the bulk of it ending up in his shoulder just below the skin. But other fragments went through his lungs, heart, intestines and so on.
So not having an exit wound is not physically impossible and in fact does happen in regular hunting depending on where the bullet hits and the angle of entry.
I think the problem is that you’re not taking the angles into account. Due to the combined effect of the shooter’s elevation and the slouching/leaning forward of Charlie as he was hit the angle of the spine relative to the bullet would have been much closer to 45 degrees.
The leaked reports show that the bullet initially grazed the C2 and C3 vertebrae and then shattered the C4, C5 and C6 vertebrae and grazed the C7 and C8 vertebrae. So like you said… the bullet did easily pierce spine. But after striking 6 vertebrae in a row it finally shattered and lost too much energy to leave the body.
Again we’re not talking about a ricochet or a straight on hit but a shot that already lost about 26% of its kinetic energy due to air drag over the first 430 feet and stuck at a pretty significant angle losing a large chuck of energy with each successive bone impact.
Had this been point blank or had the bullet hit his spine straight on you be 100% correct in either case. But when you look at everything together the model is viable and consistent with the autopsy findings.

A 30-06 not creating an exit wound when shot at a human neck is physically impossible. Winning the lottery isn't.

A 30-06 getting deflected by a flimsy spine. Like I said. Physically impossible.
