Additional and conclusive evidence may yet result, but, at this point I do not have confidence in the FBI findings regarding Kirk’s murderer.
The pictures in the stairs show no evidence of the rifle discussed as the weapon. The stairs show someone with a backpack. There is no way a bolt action rifle was in that backpack (“…all the bolt action rifles are disassembled the same way…” click here). The stock is not collapsible.
The pixels are the best I can do.
If the same person was running across the roof, where is the rifle? A bolt action rifle would not be in the backpack.
The note under the computer reported by the FBI is circumstantial. A half a dozen other people could have the same notes given the inflammatory rhetoric of Kirk.
His family’s conversation resulted in a report to the police about a son that hated Kirk. They were correct to report it, but, talk is only circumstantial while raising suspicion. It doesn’t prove anything except their son was involved with a controversial relationship.
The FBI states it will have better evidence by Friday. That doesn’t mean it will be presented to the public. There is no obligation to share it with anyone else except the defense attorney. As a matter of fact openly discussing the evidence with the public taints the jury pool.
I am not a forensic expert of any kind. This is just the way I see it.
What a mess.
