And does anybody ever explore the possibility that Alec may have had an accomplice?
00:00:04
I mean with regard to his financial crimes definitely. With the double murder it seems like SLED really just
00:00:10
hones in on him. Now the defense, they present a two-shooter theory based mainly on the
00:00:16
fact that there were two different guns that were used, but they obviously assert that neither of those two
00:00:22
shooters was Alec. Honestly, we're so deep into the story I kind of forgot that there were two different guns that
00:00:28
were used. I know. And like it's such an oddity in this case. And like when you talk about the guns like the other weird
00:00:35
thing that I don't think I touched on is they did a bunch of crime scene analysis
00:00:38
and the angle of the shots fired also are weird to me. Like they point to an assailant that was shorter than Alec.
00:00:45
Alec is like 6'3 6'4. And is that like the analysis of all the shots or just one or just like some of them? So
00:00:54
the what they think is I think they believe that Paul was shot first. The initial shot to Paul's shoulder seemed
00:01:00
more straight on. All of the others were like angled up. I'm I'm also just thinking like Alec was a
00:01:07
trial lawyer. And we already know about one incident that he staged involving a guy. And like he would have known that
00:01:13
using two weapons would complicate a case against him in a courtroom.
