The Killing of Percy Casserley

It seems to be a bit strange that Ted Chaplin went to Casserley’s house with gloves on his hands.The question is how could Casserley die after being shot from the jammed gun?At the same time, as we all remember, Casserley was drunk.In this case, even the level of alcohol in Casserley’s blood was not measured.First, let’s estimate the prosecutor’s (McClure) arguments.There is a slight chance of mistake in this statement but it is almost neglectible.A good question is the one about the gloves.The gun was found to have a defective reloading mechanism.There should be no second shot at all!Or maybe the gun failure took place after it was all over?
