Rumpole
Formerly known as "Hercule Poirot"
I've been trying to keep up with all the recent posts... as a longtime lurker I realized thats harder work than keeping up with the trial. So many points I would love to question/disagree but y'all move along fast
I would love to hear Pistorius' response on why he made that hole, or who made that hole and why it was there because it's very strange. It's definitely not appropriate to the implication that early evening in Feb 13th was a calm, normal night his statement clearly attests.
If the hole was done on an earlier occasion, that is also interesting (even for the defense) because why does anyone shoot doors in a high security, wealthy Silver Lakes estate. Or leave holes in doors that look like pellet or airgun holes. Could it be a party occasion hole or another accident? Hope the prosecution questions Pistorius on the bedroom door. Its is definitely not something you would see from a 'reasonable' man/home.
Unless the State make a case for why they think it is significant.. why should OP have to explain it at all? You say "why do people shoot"... yet still no proof it is a bullet hole. Even conceding it is airgun pellet hole for sake of argument.....
I would have no trouble explaining it myself... but if OP did... most posters here would not accept such an explanation.
eg.... stupid guy thing.. messing with airgun and shoots off a pellet indoors.... could easily be me
The State has to do a lot more than just say... ah ha... a pellet hole....
So what?
