Kolvet's second-hand relay of an unnamed surgeon on the absent exit wound

what the source states
Kolvet on X: "I just spoke with the surgeon who worked on Charlie in the hospital... He said the bullet 'absolutely should have gone through, which is very very normal for a high-powered, high-velocity round'"; "His bone was so healthy and the density was so so impressive that he's like the man of steel." "In the end, the coroner did find the bullet just beneath the skin."
what we infer
Evidence of what a spokesman RELAYED, not a medical record. Statements like these — vivid, second-hand, unnamed — are exactly the material the full autopsy package would replace, in whichever direction it cuts.
limitations
  • Unnamed surgeon; second-hand relay by an organizational spokesman; no medical document.
