Sahel Kazemi fired gunshots, lab tests show
Consider this one all but closed (thankfully):
A state medical examiner has said that preliminary testing from the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation points to the likely conclusion of murder-suicide in the deaths of Steve McNair and Sahel Kazemi...
Gunshot residue and ballistics testing are also consistent with a ruling of murder-suicide, Li said.
h/t to gramsey for finding The Tennessean link first, and check the comments for his notes from the police press conference.

McNair had no gunshot residue on his hands
And Kazemi had been telling multiple people that her life was all messed up, and she was going to "end it all." She also told people that she thought McNair was involved with another woman.
There was no evidence that anything had been tampered with by Neely or Gaddy.
There was no suicide note, but there is evidence that she was “spinning out of control.”
Mr Norfleet is “no longer a suspect.”
She bought the gun from someone who was going to purchase her car—in the parking lot of Opry Mills.

The time frame for the 4 shots into McNair is unknown. "Likely very quick."

No evidence that anyone else was at the crime scene
But Chief Serpas did say that they will continue to speak to all people involved as there are still some unanswered questions, however those things do not have any relevance to what the crime scene told them.

I have that backwards---it was left first.
Chief Serpas said that they believe that she tried to position herself to fall into his lap when she shot herself. They think she did, and then slid into the floor.

The 911 calls have been released
Apparentely the first 911 call was a hang up, and the operator had to call the number back.
They also released the DUI video.
ed. side note—-strange that it was the same officer who pulled McNair over for his DUI and then tried to sell the video…..

All the complaining that I do about newspaper chat commentators
And then I hear some of these questions these “reporters” are asking. The commentators aren’t so bad.

I'm glad there were no drugs in his apartment

hate to say it, but that part may not be over yet
the tox screens will be the definitive word on all that. ill be holding my breath til they come back. and if there was any reason for neely to take so long calling the cops, removing paraphernalia or flushing drugs down the toilet would be an obvious reason. i dont want to speculate that it did happen, im just not so sure they have fully proved it didnt happen. until we know his system was clean, there is plenty of room for that kind of wild speculation.

who cares
whether they were using drugs or not? Everyone has his vice. I don’t like it when people stuff their face with junk food or flip the channel over to some dumbass tv show, but it’s no excuse for me to blow their brains out.

the media will care
and it will mean i have to listen to more self-righteous moralizing bs, so i care
