Hi everyone, I’ve been following the Gene Gilbert case, and I keep coming back to the role of forensic evidence in situations like this. Given the complexity of the incident and Terri Gilbert's past, does anyone here have insights or thoughts on how much weight forensic evidence typically holds in such self-defense claims? It seems like the investigation would heavily rely on physical evidence to corroborate or refute Terri's story, especially since there were no other witnesses. What also fascinates me is how investigators might differentiate between accidental and deliberate actions, especially when there's only one side of the story. Are there specific forensic techniques or technologies used in the late 90s that would have been crucial in piecing together the true sequence of events? For Gene's family, not having clear answers must be incredibly difficult. I really hope they eventually found some form of closure, whatever that might look like in such a tragic situation. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts! Take care, everyone!
