If they can place both stones on the carpet in full light and take a picture of them together then I'll back off and retract my statement where I expressed doubt about the article. Until then, my impression is that someone is lying.

As far as the glass, no it would not have carried as far as the rock. Different weight and mass. It's possible the rock was deflected or ricocheted off of something else in its flight path thereby lowering its forward velocity.

Yeah, I know it’s possible, but in BOTH pictures? Especially in the one on the stairs. The rock would have bounced back down the stairs and landed in the glass that didn’t travel as far.

I’ve dropped stuff on the stairs and except for laundry, which eventually gets stuck on the carpet somewhere, it almost always makes it all the way down, and that’s just from dropping, not from being thrown from the front of the stairs where it could very likely hit the riser.

And I’ve dropped enough dishes and classes in my day and when glass breaks, it’s EVERYWHERE.

The rock’s forward velocity would be seriously reduced in going through the window. I don’t think it would be so likely to have traveled a huge distance past the glass.

Anyway, I presume that when these events happened, she filed a police report and there are photos showing the scene and the broken windows.

I understand your skepticism. We will just have to wait and see if you are vindicated. Let me know if you find out.

Did you check out the pictures at the link?

There’s a rock with what appears to be blood on it but it looks as oddly contrived as the other pictures.

Time will tell.

I would say that it’s pretty clearly the same rock.
