About

The x-ray was used in testimony interpreting a left parietal skull defect and radiodense particles as findings consistent with a gunshot entrance wound. Jentzen's interpretation of the skull findings supported his opinion that Teresa Halbach died from a gunshot wound or wounds to the head and that the manner of death was homicide.
