From Choc - "Others have compellingly argued that those poor little boys were murdered with a frenzied arc of shots and in a manner which suggests overkill - the sort of overkill that parents who kill their children indulge in."Frenzied and arc don't go together IMO.It was either frenzied or arc.In a frenzied attack I would expect shots all over the head and / or body.The arc to me indicates a controlled act, and has been referred to months ago on the forum as a more execution style of shooting!And the term "overkill" can apply to anyone wanting to make sure death was quick and final. Quote from: ngb1066 on January 19, 2012, 06:02:PMI disagree, for the reasons I posted months ago. The movement of the rifle barrel in an arc is the natural way in which it would tend to move in the hands of someone inexperienced firing shots in rapid succession.The number of shots fired in the twins' bedroom was far more than necessary to ensure death. They were both asleep (fortunately) and were shot in the head at point blank range. A single shot each would have been sufficient, two at most would have been used in an "execution style" killing. In my opinion the way in which the twins were shot can only be described as frenzied overkill.ngb (or anyone) do you have an answer to the point highlighted in red?
