Yesterday's local papers brought us news of the results of the third search warrant used to search the Amato residence on Commerce St. last week. The paper work filed with Common Pleas Court this week showed what evidence was taken from the crime scene. There were shell casings, cotton swabs of trace evidence, and a box of knickknacks from a kitchen shelf. Evidently they were looking for the actual bullet that killed Tonia Amato. The bullet they had found in previous searches was found by BCI & I labs not to have been fired from the gun Amato Jr. said he had used.
Now we know what they were looking for. It appears that Special Prosecutor Grimshaw and the investigators are playing their cards close to their chest and they are not disclosing very much information. If it wasn't for the fact they, the investigators, had to file paper work with the court we probably wouldn't know that much.
Mr. Grimshaw was quoted in the Morning Journal as saying "progress is being made slowly". He also advised it will be close to the end of October before they decide how to proceed and that will only be if all the test results are completed.
We're waiting...

If the first bullet wasn't fired from J.C.'s gun, then who's gun was it fired from?
There is no way the order in which bullets were fired can be determined after the fact. There is no way to put any sort of time line on fired bullets. Who's to say the other bullets weren't fired during that mysterious explosion that occurred when Amato's lawyer's were in the house? Who's to say that they weren't fired on some other day altogether? It's just silly to draw inferences from the bits of evidence that have been made available to the press except this: something is rotten in Wellsville.
I can't understand why this new evidence wasn't found in the previous searches?
There are only 3 possibilities for why the evidence was not found previously: 1) the evidence was not there at the time of the other searches, or 2) the "authorities" are inept, or 3) both 1 and 2.
