Lying down ? Course it wouldn't !

Sheila was 5' 8" ? Pretty long when lying down. This was why she appeared " awkward " in the pics.

I wasn't aware that serious consideration had been given to her standing up when the first shot was fired.

The second shot would have been more akin to her having been in a standing position given the way of the bullet.

Standing as in on her feet?

Standing as in on her feet?

How does one usually stand ?

[Jane]

How does one usually stand ?

With difficulty -and probably needing to hold onto something - IF such was possible with a shattered spine.

Well I just wanted you on record as saying you meant on her feet, because when someone challeneged you on how impossible that was you would say you meant "Kneeling!".

No way was Sheila standing upright for the second shot. Where is the blood from the first one? Wasn't she bleeding?

How did she managed to stand up after that first shot?!

Would be a miracle.

Sorry Lookout, I thought you were a nurse not a  ballistics expert and NONE of them support your (yet another) 'dragged out of thin air' claim.

If she were standing, how did she manage to fall to the floor, flat on her back (without banging her head) and land with the gun straight across her body?

You beat me to it, Caroline. I was just about to ask the exact same question but I'd wasted time by practising with a fish slice held in both hands

Do we know whether she had a bang to her head or not ? No. If nothing was reported about a covered wound,then I wouldn't expect anything to have been said about a bruised skull.

yes we do know and no she didn't. But you can pretend she did if you like and the covered wound was reported, it was an old one. No one puts a plater on a dead woman's injury!! 

She wasn't standing Lookout - THAT is for SURE!!

The pathologist seemed not to think the wound was either big/serious enough to be worthy of more than passing comment. What are you trying to suggest it was.

Well doesn't that make life easier if she was standing ?

Why not, it all adds to the drama
