Let's start off with a quote:
" A meta-analysis of prospective epidemiologic studies showed that there is no significant evidence for concluding that dietary saturated fat is associated with an increased risk of CHD or CVD"
Here's the source: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2824152/
So, I repeat:
NO SIGNIFICANT EVIDENCE....
Let's look a little bit more closely...click the link - it is to the same study
Now go to figure 2....
Here you see all the included studies.
Now look at the first study that showed no relationship beween saturated fat and heart attacks. It's McGee et al reference 9.
Scroll down the references.
Click on number 9.

This is what this study says:
"" Men who developed coronary heart disease had a lower average intake of calories, carbohydrates, starch, and vegetable protein than men who remained free of coronary heart disease.
Men who developed coronary heart disease also had a higher mean intake of percentage of calories from protein, fat, saturated fatty acids, and polyunsaturated fatty acids than men who remained free of coronary heart disease.
These men also had a significantly lower mean percentage of calories from carbohydrates and a higher mean ingestion of cholesterol per 1000 calories than men who remained free of coronary heart disease.""
