You are absolutely correct! Definitely something to consider. And as it’s a revolver it retains the fired casings so we would know the caliber used. I speak to the actual evidence in each particular case.

Empathy is a powerful tool once I learned how to not drown in it. I had to find the off switch or I couldn’t survive in that job. When I got *some* control it was life changing in my field. If you’re an empath please see it as your super power 💕 empathy will change the world.

For those noting the lack of DNA on duct tape, (still entangled in the hair) there was not even adhesive remaining to retain skin cells. Heat, sunlight, bacteria & mold of the flooded, hot, swampy FL environment wouldn’t lend itself to survival of DNA over a long period of time

As a CSI and empath I get it. Standing on countless crime scenes as families said goodbye to their mothers and daughters- brothers and sons. I remember being new and trying not to cry as a suicide note was read out loud by the daughter- her father in the bed she stood aside. 1/2
