The defense released a statement sayi9ng that the bullet "“did not match” Tyler Robinson's gun. So of course, the headlines went ape ****. Podcasters flooded social media, etc...the usual knee-jerk reaction. One problem. That isn't exactly true.
The ATF result was inconclusive: the bullet fragment “could not be identified or excluded” as having been fired from the rifle. They could not prove it came from that rifle, but they also could not rule the rifle out. Big difference. This is what happens when dishonest scum spew crap. They know how to manipulate wrods to get the mass on their side.
The truth? Well...evidently that is irrelevant.
I do believe he is the killer. I have spoken about this before. Inclusive finding is not uncommon
PolitiFact spoke to forensic science and criminology experts who said an "inconclusive" finding on a bullet fragment like this is not uncommon, and it does not rule out that the weapon used in Kirk’s killing was the same one linked to Robinson.
"When the results of a bullet fragment analysis come back as ‘inconclusive,’ that does not mean that the rifle did not fire the bullet," Christopher Ballard, a spokesperson for the Utah Country Attorney’s Office and part of the prosecution team, wrote in an email to PolitiFact. "There just aren’t enough marks on the fragment to make a conclusion one way or the other as to whether the bullet fragment was fired by the particular rifle."
