You don't get to make up your own alternative facts, though, just because you don't believe the reporter.
The reporter has proven that she's incapable of getting even the most simple and straightforward "facts" correct. It's not a stretch to believe she transposed the the numbers when reporting the wounds. I don't get to make up facts, but I do get apply common sense. My common sense tells me that people who train every day of their lives don't shoot someone four times in the head, and once in the chest. That's just not they way they're taught or trained to engage aggressors. It's not plausible, at all.
