Then how come they didn't document the hole in the back of the skull
with photographs showing the beveling? Because they lied.
BTW, do YOU think the beveling always tells you whether the bullet
entered or exited? It doesn't.

Marsh will correctly point out the external beveling is possible with an
entry wound, either because of a keyhole wound or a contact wound. However
what he can't explain is the internal beveling in the rear skull wall.
That can only happen with an entry wound.

Wrong again. I won't bother with those exceptions that you already know
about because you already know about them. I'll mention the one you
DON'T know about. Distant shots.

I've only cited this about 4,000 times so it is hard to go back and find
it again.

According to Coe (1982), the mechanism responsible in the majority of the
cases is due to contact wounds, where the handgun is held against the
head. "In such cases it seems plausible that the gases expanding in the
subcutaneous tissues penetrate the marrow cavity of the bone and lift the
outer table of the skull" (Coe, 1982:218). Although in cases of distant
range, Spitz and Fisher (1993) attribute this phenomenon to bullet
rotation. Peterson (1991), per contra, argues that the blowback from the
pressure buildup associated with temporary cavity formation is a more
plausible explanation.

Smith et al. (1993) have observed atypical exit defects to the cranial
vault mimicking blunt(closed head) trauma. Rather than the typical central
defect with external beveling, they observed an epicenter of curvilinear
radial cracking with plastic deformation or warping "...of bone due to
slow loading and blunt trauma" (Smith et al., 1993). They ascribed this
anomaly to slow-moving projectiles.

Go argue with Spitz. He's a lovely guy.
NB: The Some Carcanos produce faster spin for stabilization.



BTW, there was no back of the head wound and no internal beveling.
