Default RE: the truth about Casey Burns

Bwana: you never shot anyone that you know of...neither did Mr. Wetzel. it was only after two days that the Pa State Police asked anyone in whom had shot a gun in the area to come forth and have their gun ballistic tested to see if it matched the bullet recovered from Ms. Burns. Several shooters volunteered their rifles for testing. it was only after testing thru ballistics the slug was proven to come from Mr. Wetzel's rifle. ** an interesting point to be made here is that had Mr. Wetzel NOT come forth in all likelyhood no one would have ever known who fired this shot.
If this isn't a accidental case with someone trying to get rich off it nothing is! Was Casey Burns hurt..yes! Did Mr. Wetzel fire that shot...yes! Was it an accident as proven in court....yes! should it ruin Mr. Wetzel (because Burns will surely seek damages over and above his insurance cap)....NO! Should Ms. burns and family being using this accident to feed a liberal press hungry for anti gun/hunting articles........NO!
