Good point. No mention of TM having another weapon on him.But remember there was also the paving slab/rock/block thing which I think was a lot heavier.
I know we discussed the bat in the early days cos I remember needing a description and some exercises were carried out regarding velocity and weight.. I do not remember ever seeing a full description of the other implement, however.
Now FBI agents are issued with lifelong carry permits.
Did TM have his gun on the night in question and if so why did he choose a bat? Reaching for a gun would be more standard practice for a trained member that searching for a bat. A gun, if raised and pointed at a perp would have given the perp a chance to cease choking while chatting with TM, multitasking is admirable, but few will retain the skills with a gun pointed in their direction, they are more likely to stop what they are doing or alternatively attempt to carry on and die trying.
I do not recall seeing any documents stating he was or was not armed or whether anybody in the house had a carry permit or whether any guns were removed from the premises following the murder
My problem with the brick/slab is that its been reported as both and all we have speculated on before was the picture of paving bricks outside the home and the fact they were said to have recently built a wall.
I do know that pavers can weigh anywhere from 2.5 kg to 30kg il have another comb through autopsy. Head injuries caused by blunt force trauma can show signs in the areas of avulsion of the weapon used. The shape of the weapon can be indicated at the point of impact. In autopsy they talk slot about "linear" marks.
