No you haven’t, Holly
Explain please?
There was no time pressure with the first load because the victims would not realise they were under attack until they sustained life threatening injuries which severely incapacitated them.
All the physical evidence supports the first load involving ten cartridges: 6 gsw's to June and 4 gsw's to NB. The pathologist said these gsw's would have killed them had others not supervened. June was left to walk around the bed and was eventually immobilised and killed with two gsw's to the head. If she wasn't so badly injured from the first round she would have taken other action. NB made it to the kitchen but was easily overcome. The evidence suggests he fell on a chair in the kitchen where he sustained numerous blows from the rifle. He then sustained 4 gsw's to head which the pathologist said were likely to have been inflicted after he had stopped moving. The 4 gsw's to the head immobilised him immediately resulting in death.
The second and subsequent load(s) did not require the mag being loaded to full capacity and they were not time critical in terms of the victims having an opportunity to overcome the perp when he/she was reloading because they were too badly injured from the first round.
The gsw's sustained by the twins were inflicted whilst they were asleep. The pathologist thought all 8 were fired consecutively.
