I'm with you: I too don't believe this guy did it. I also don't believe anyone that would do this crime would keep incriminating papers in their car designed to give the pentagon a reason to march troops into our towns.
Also, why did the triggerman leave some of his victims alive? I can't wrap my head around that.
"Also, why did the triggerman leave some of his victims alive?"
Not for lack of trying. The Hoffmans took 9 & 8 shots, respectively, consistent with a Glock-style 9mm fired hastily enough for the shooter to flee instead of reloading. Probably not a skilled shooter... so, maybe a real cop after all, heh!
Police are trained to always shoot for center of mass. I heard a story of a rookie cop who came across a deer hit by a car. The deer was slowly dying in pain, so the rookie decided to mercy-kill it... so at point-black, he fired for center of mass.
Three magazines later, the deer was still alive and the rookie radioed in that he was out of ammo.
In this case, his victim answered the door three feet away, and he... shot for center of mass, apparently.
Must have been a real cop that pulled the trigger. No Mozambique Drill for them. Still... it's hard to believe someone wouldn't bleed to death from 8 hits.
