In my opinion, the theater surveillance video shows Reeves kicking the victim’s seat, the victim then standing up, turning around, grabbing Reeves popcorn and throwing at him. Reeves then quickly lifting his arm and shooting.
Reeves then quickly lifting his arm and shooting.
It looks like it was already in his hand and in his lap. He didn't pull it out of his pocket as he claims. It was already out of his pocket.
Here’s what the timeline looks like from the video:
1:14:56 Reeves arrive & sit down in theatre.
1:23:26 Reeves gets up to go complain to management.
1:26:20 Reeves returns from lobby & sits down.
1:26:37 Oulson reaches over & takes Reeves popcorn & tosses it back at him.
1:26:38 Reeves quickly lifts his arm & shoots him — within one second.
Did Reeves actually reach into his pocket and pull the gun out of it as he claims OR was the gun already in his hand and on his lap when the popcorn was thrown???
If the latter then is that premeditation???
