He didn’t aim for the neck. The fact it hit there was happenstance.
Exactly
He almost completely missed

Anybody see the text messages between him and his trans boyfriend? Not a single "bro" or misspelling in there. Very weird conversation. I got away from jumping to conspiracies immediately a long time ago but I'm having trouble believing some of this. Apparently Candice Owen's does too. I can be told all day long that they found his prints and DNA, but I wasn't there to verify it. I'll bet the kid never gets a chance to open his mouth and speak openly. It's sad that I'm this dissolutioned by our government and FBI but it is what it is.

My thought on the texts is that they were scripted to make it seem like the tranny was not involved in the planning. Give evidence that he was a “lone wolf” so the boyfriend would not go to jail

But I have a conspiracy bent to my mind. Could be they are both just weirdos

I don't know that he didn't aim for the neck. I suspect he aimed for the head, but don't know that either. Shooting from a improvised rifle rest (I assume he had a rest) at 200 yards, a lot of it was luck, IMO.

Last report I heard, range was roughly 130 meters or 142 yards

Charlie was wearing a plate on his chest. The bullet hit the plate high left and shattered. It was a bullet fragment that entered his neck.

I have always thought he was aiming center mass and missed by almost a foot. People have said Charlie was wearing a vest, but I never saw signs of one, especially one to deflect a 30-06 from 140 yards away
