Yeah, "blood splatter" is just about on par with lie detector tests.

A lot of "forensics" is horseshite.

But no man is shooting his own jaw off.


Apparently that wasn't true. His jaw wasn't even broken, and wasn't wired shut. Way different than everyone was led to believe.

Pusser was a total scumbag, and his ambush story is totally laughable to anyone with common sense that actually looks at it. You don't even have to look very hard.


58 years ago is looking pretty hard.

If he did kill her, blowing his own jaw off is pretty damn ballsy. That's how you sell your story and not with some bullshite flesh wound.


Possible failed suicide attempt that ended up being a convenient cover?

No idea what kind of evidence this guy has but people have been found to have shot themselves to try cover up crimes in other cases.

Buford is not here to defend himself.


Awfully convenient. Without any eyewitnesses, it’s easy to interpret the vagaries and nuances of what happened and arrive at the desired conclusion. Politically motivated confirmation bias. Even 58 years later, some people just don’t like the attention he received back then.
