Even in the best of circumstances, ballistic matching is bunk science used to secure confessions. When the bullet is mangled, nobody is going to take the stand as an expert witness and say “yeah that came from this gun.”
Yep, everyone that thinks this is some huge deal doesn’t just not understand guns, they don’t have a basic understanding of physics or even basic critical thinking…
It means absolutely nothing either way, but there’s a lot of shit that does make it look shady.
Not true. CSI taught me that you can make a phone photo and then do an enhance enhance ENHANCE and you will instantly see the shooter’s dna and birth certificate.
Despite the legitimacy of your statement I will continue to suggest that this was just one of those ‘1 in a Billion’moments when a carotid artery spontaneously just went pop.
The version of this crossposted to news@lemmy.world is a shitshow of ridiculous conspiracy theories.
I haven’t really kept up with the stories about the Kirk killer, but I remember all the initial evidence suggested he had moved to the left and opposed Kirk’s rightwing stances. Yet many here were convinced that he was a rightwinger himself and that all the statements from the police, roommate, and family couldn’t be trusted. What are the current, rational views about the killer’s motives?
I mean in rational views… the police and DOJ can’t be trusted, the story still has a lot of oddities in it, the text messages seem staged as hell, whether that being Robinson going out of his way to actively clear his roomate, or the police just forging messages.
That being said I haven’t seen anything that seems to contradict the idea that Robinson himself, was opposed to Kirk’s hate mongering, and took the shot for that reason.
