A modern forensic analysis of the assassination seems to point to the attending physician who examined Lincoln in the rooming house where he was taken after the attack as a major cause of the president's demise. The physician probed into the bullet cavity with metal tool in his examination precipitating extensive hemoraging and death. It is believed that the heat shot would not have caused Lincoln's death. There would have been paralysis and perhaps loss of brain function, but the doctor's efforts were decidedly counter-productive.
