This is the inherent unreliability of eyewitness accounts. Have ten people witness the same thing and you'll -always- get ten very different stories and descriptions. People will get surprisingly simple facts just plain wrong. It's unfortunate but that's the way it is. Eyewitnesses are just not to be trusted. Not without some other corroborating evidence.
“This is the inherent unreliability of eyewitness accounts.”
That is exactly what I was trying to point out! At this point though, I’m leaning toward the construction worker. As the first murder was in a less confusing, less active environment. No people running around in panic then. I gotta see if I can find that link again.
“Cold-blooded killer Jeffrey Johnson, wearing a business suit and carrying a briefcase, pumped three fatal bullets into his victim near the 33rd St. entrance to the skyscraper, a witness told the Daily News.”
““He shot the guy in the head,” said Ogden, 23. “The guy went down. He took a second shot when he was down.”
The shooter then “walked down the block, like nothing was happening, real casual,” Ogden said. “We were screaming from the top, ‘It’s the guy in the grey suit!’”
Heres the link;
