TY - JOUR PY - 1987// TI - An unusual pattern of gunshot injury linking two homicides to the same assailant JO - Journal of forensic sciences A1 - Frazer, M. SP - 262 EP - 265 VL - 32 IS - 1 N2 - This case report describes an unusual pattern of gunshot firing that proved useful in convicting one assailant of two murders. The assailant fired into the first victim, successively through the same entrance hole at contact range. This technique of firing twice through the same hole was also demonstrable on his second victim in the bare skull of the decomposed body. This unusual pattern noted in two homicides found two weeks apart, in concert with other circumstantial evidence, led to the successful conviction of the man for both murders.
