The people who did the show did not ask whether the cop’s fingerprints were on the ammo clip or bullets in it. They only said that the woman’s fingerprints were found on the trigger/handle.
Since the copy owned the gun, you would expect his prints to be all over it. I learned this in Criminal Investigation Techniques I in 1975. The same rules of checking out a weapon apply today, unless you want to cover-up something.
Also, I didn’t hear anything about gun-powder residue on the woman’s hands. Did I miss it or did they not mention it?
The woman’s right leg position bothered me. If she was pushed backward by the shot, or if she collapsed in situ, why was her leg partially bent upward?
Also, I believe the issue was raised by the family about no blood splatter being found on the muzzle of the gun.
Lots of questions NOT ASKED by the show’s producers/crew or not presented during it. WHY NOT to both issues.
Great questions:
That may have been the reason for the second shot into the carpeting — to get the gunshot residue on her hands and her fingerprints on the gun.
The weapon was kept in one of those secured holsters that the ME couldn’t even figure out how to unlock.
I think they did say that the cop’s fingerprints were not on the weapon — which would be strange since it was his. And apparently they never checked his hands for gunshot residue.
I live here and the media are blowing this up like Trayvon Martin episode.
There;s been 3 investigations , there has been a series over times over questions asked and it is the family of the young woman who can’t accept their daughter killed herself
Course now NY Times and PBS amongst other left wing networks for some are now telling the truth ARFa, it is amazing how some people will believe what ever they want to from the media
