It appeared to be a bullet hole.

Bad Romance: Shot in the Dark (Revisited)

At that point, I knew that it probably was not a suicide.

Bad Romance: Shot in the Dark (Revisited)

Lead detective Alan Merritt arrives next.

20/20
Bad Romance: Shot in the Dark (Revisited)

Big hole?

20/20
Bad Romance: Shot in the Dark (Revisited)

No, it's just a small bullet hole, about the size of a ballpoint ink pen.

20/20
Bad Romance: Shot in the Dark (Revisited)

But there's no gun inside Emma's bedroom.

Bad Romance: Shot in the Dark (Revisited)

Instead, there's a strange discovery on the outside of the house.

Bad Romance: Shot in the Dark (Revisited)

And on the far side of the walker's fence, another piece of evidence.

Bad Romance: Shot in the Dark (Revisited)

What had happened?

20/20
Bad Romance: Shot in the Dark (Revisited)

Emma Walker was killed by a gunshot wound to the head from somebody shooting into the house from outside.

20/20
Bad Romance: Shot in the Dark (Revisited)

Those two bullets fired through the walls of her bedroom, one striking Emma behind her left ear, the second into the pillow by her head.

Bad Romance: Shot in the Dark (Revisited)

You know, to hit a target that you can't see, you would have had to know exactly where Emma's head was going to be.

Bad Romance: Shot in the Dark (Revisited)
