  • Some of my thoughts:
    McCoy's hand can be seen moving already 280 ms (0.28 s) after the shot, which you may observe yourself using the miliseconds counter included in the video over the second playing of McCoy's clip discussed by Candace. The shortest possible human reaction time is abt. 100-200 ms (source Wiki, topic Mental chronometry). World class sprinter reaction times are quoted as 140 - 170 ms (just google). This means McCoy was reacting with rapidity close to that of sprinters.

    Normal human reaction to sudden unexpected boom is getting startled - what was it? Guy standing to the right of Kirk (the closest one) can be seen starting to move towards him abt. 1 second after the shot, and he got clearly startled. McCoy is roughly four times faster than him. This means McCoy was specifically waiting for the shot, like a sprinter does.

    McCoy did not care about what happened to Kirk - he could only notice that Kirk was hit, possibly that it was a hit on the neck and that Kirk went limp. He had no way of knowing whether Kirk was wounded mortally or maybe not (Kirk might have survived just as well even with his jugular vein ruptured - just put the bullet one inch farther from center, to his left). What could McCoy have said to the guy waiting on the other end of the call - only "we have a shot, Kirk's been hit in the neck".

    McCoy obviously wasn't afraid of crossing the line of fire about 4 seconds after the shot, which is truly dumb. It's as if he knew only one shot was in the works - super suspicious.

    Possibly McCoy was just given a task of waiting for a possible shot and he waited highly concentrated, like a sprinter. His reaction was fully automatic and preprogrammed, he just waited for this specific cue, or at least it seems so. The other guy had to be waiting too - again super suspicious.

    Call logs seem to be the key - people should learn the number McCoy was connected to, what time exactly did the call start (with seconds), what time did it end. What other numbers/guys did McCoy talk to on 9/10 and also before and after.

    Kirk's remains may have to be exhumed in case autopsy findings turn out to be sketchy. We had this in Poland after the 2010 Polish presidential air disaster - no autopsies were carried out at all even though Polish law clearly required this. Therefore, bodies of victims had to be exhumed for autopsies, but this took place only after five years of awful political struggle and after the ruling party was replaced as a result of elections.

    Stay on target Candace 🙂
