This was one of many different experiments I performed while working for the defense on the Sean Bell shooting case.

I used a NYPD model of the SIG-Sauer P226 DAO in 9mm. This model pistol has a modified (12lb) trigger with a very long pull and reset cycle -- which makes it unusually difficult to shoot.

 The purpose was to establish a baseline for the approximate minimum time in which 31 shots could be fired. (There were some allegations that it would take 2 or 3 minutes to fire 31 shots.)

It is possible for someone highly trained with this model pistol to shoot even faster -- particularly in a high-stress situation.

 

 

 

The above graphic is a rendering of my computer model of the shooting scene on Liverpool St. It was used for analysis, not for a courtroom exhibit.

 

This graphic was used in the trial to show that the backseat passenger's leg and buttocks wounds were consistent with being shot while inside the car.

 

This exhibit was used in the trial to show the results of my experiments with bullets impacting tempered glass.
