I read it, but I am not sure their initial reaction/conclusion is enough to rule out something else. The murderer could have taken two identical guns to the scene, the murder weapon and the decoy he left with the victim.
Actually, that's a pretty interesting scenario within itself.
I enjoy this aspect of the thread more than the legal and lawyer aspects.
If the person used two identical guns, and fired the decoy into the air (or somewhere else that wouldn't leave a trace), left the shell and gun, and walked away with the murder weapon, is there any way they could catch him?
I suspect the police would be suspicious about the questioned man having a gun identical to the one used in the suspected suicide, and perhaps that could initiate a thought process that would make them suspicious of shenanigans.
