If it were unexploded ordinance, wouldn’t that contradict Garlasco’s original statement that most of the wounds were consistent with something hitting the beachgoers from above?
Good point, Mike. I’d thought of that myself. But I suppose if the shell were large enough it could’ve exploded & sent shrapnel high enough into the air to hit the head & torso. But that’s just speculation on my part.
We should keep in mind that I don’t think Garlasco is saying that it definitely was caused by an unexploded shell. I think he’s saying it may be a plausible explanation.
