A real-life Cluedo mystery Options

[james]

I never understood in Cluedo how some of the methods/weapons of the murder could be confused - to me it seems likely that you could tell poisoning apart from a shooting (I know, I know, it's just part of the game...).

But now the BBC is reporting that our beloved Police force may have had the same issue - in this story: John 'Goldfinger' Palmer 'killed by professional gunman':

Palmer had recently had surgery and it was initially thought he had suffered a cardiac arrest.

and

A week later, a post-mortem examination found the convicted conman had been shot in the chest six times, which prompted an investigation by the police watchdog.

I'm sure there's more to this story (please god there's more to this story...), than managing to overlook 6 gunshot woulds to the chest, but as it's reported at the moment, I'm struggling to see how...

A few gunshot wounds is sure to put anyone's heart into arrest.
