I actually really enjoyed it

I've seen all the conspiracy theory stories about this heartbreaking case. I came across this one and decided to give it a try and I'm glad that I did. It included all the older evidence and stories that I'd heard since this case started, but also looked at this case from a different angle based on evidence and interviews with the people who were close to the family and there at the time. I'm not sure this would be called a "conspiracy theory" film, more of a documentary style film of interviews with people close to the family and close to the case with some of the evidence reexamined. What's real? That's the fun and interesting part. This film lets me take ALL the information I've ever known of this story and conclude my own opinions but it also introduces some new information to add as well. Overall, I really enjoyed watching it.

Ryan Katzenbach announced that he found hand notations made by Police ballistic expert DellaPenna indicating that the jacketed bullet marked into evidence by police as item 33 weighed 169 grains, had 8 lands and grooves remaining and was .363 in diameter and the paper with these notations is shown on screen. Katzenbach then announces that these characteristics are associated with a .38 special and that DellaPenna misidentified the bullet at a .35 rifle round. It is factually incorrect that these characteristics are associated with a .38 special. A jacketed .38 special round weighs 148 grains and is .357 in diameter. The fragment weighed more than a complete jacketed .38 special round and was larger than the diameter of a .38 special round. All .38 special revolvers in existence at the time the murders were committed had 5 or 6 lands and grooves depending on the manufacturer. The gun that fired item 33 had at least 8 lands and grooves but most likely more. This evidence proves the complete opposite of what Katzenbach contends. It proves item 33 was not a .38 special but could very well have been a .35 rifle round as the expert determined.
