Oh, nothing so simple. The autopsy report says he died Thursday.
Another copy of the same autopsy report says he died Wednesday. His
body was found either Tuesday or Friday. There's a video clip of him
at the local convenience store Saturday. Another of you shooting him
on Monday -- when it can be proven (eyewitnesses, not just
surveillance) that you were in another state. And another of the
local head prosecutor shooting him on Wednesday (when it can be
proven via eyewitness testimony that *he* was in another state). And
ample evidence that both the prosecutor's secretary and his chief
political opponent's secretary were tampering with the surveillance
records, even though neither has the technical expertise to do so.
