But, you know, certainly he would have been very dedicated and driven to complete his medical residency and surgical residency and perform at that level.

But once he stepped out of the hospital, you know, who knows?

I do based upon everything I've read and the autopsy report.

We're as good as the evidence that we are provided.

So in this particular case, just reviewing her report, I see she was transported to one of the regional medical examiner's offices where I assume she was examined by a forensic pathologist.

But her external examination clearly shows a contact-type gunshot entrance wound on the right side of her head.

And there was an exit wound on the left side of the head.

The fractures that were present on her skull, the bruising around her eyes is all consistent with a gunshot wound that occurred just before death.

The external examination also showed no additional trauma to her body, no evidence of strangulation or that she was beaten anywhere or even any defensive wounds on her body.

The only injury that they described is the one that occurred before death, which is a gunshot wound and some minor post-mortem injuries that occurred from her being in the water.

So at that point, you have the cause of death.

We know the cause of death, which is gunshot wound of the head consistent with a contact type.

Then the question becomes, what is the matter?

Is it a suicide or a homicide?

And you take in all of the additional information that comes from law enforcement.

And we're only as good as that information.

So in this particular case, we know that she made that 911 call.

We know that she purchased the gun.

There's nothing unseen to suggest that someone else was there with her or may have actually pulled that trigger.

So all the preponderance of the evidence here indicates that this is a gunshot wound to the head, cause of death, manner of death, suicide.
