Trump Ear Therapeutic Is Constant With Bullet Grazing Pores and skin, Ballistics Skilled Says

Donald Trump was grazed by a bullet through the assassination try … a minimum of that is what a ballistic professional gleans from the way in which the previous president’s injured ear is therapeutic.

Leonard Romero — a forensic firearms examiner who’s labored alongside the LAPD and several other different regulation enforcement businesses on this subject — tells TMZ … Trump’s ear therapeutic so shortly is not proof he wasn’t hit (as some have steered), however quite the opposite … it is truly in keeping with a graze from a bullet, versus a extra direct affect.

The way in which Leonard, explains it … a graze solely impacts the pores and skin’s floor — it is extra like a scrape or a scratch, and would not trigger heavy injury, even when the bullet is from an AR-15 assault rifle, as was the case right here.

Trump was bleeding from the ear after Thomas Matthew Crooks squeezed off pictures at him throughout his July 13 rally in Pennsylvania … then he wore a large bandage to the following RNC, the place he accepted the GOP presidential nomination, and has since ditched the bandage altogether … and his ear has no main scarring viewable to the bare eye.

FBI director Christopher Wray at first mentioned there was some query whether or not or not Trump was struck by a bullet … however the FBI in the end backtracked and mentioned, “What struck former President Trump in the ear was a bullet, whether whole or fragmented into smaller pieces, fired from the deceased subject’s rifle.”

Leonard says video from the taking pictures provides no indication Trump was grazed by a bullet fragment … as a substitute, he tells us he is assured the bullet grazed Trump’s ear earlier than hitting anything … and would not consider Trump was minimize by damaged glass from a teleprompter.

After all, we might heard from somebody plugged into the Secret Service that he presumably was minimize by glass — or another materials that ricocheted off the bullet — however Romero would not appear to agree.

In any case — it appears like Trump bought tremendous fortunate right here … Leonard says a .223 caliber bullet just like the one the shooter used causes devastating wounds on direct affect.

Once more, Trump’s ear continues to be intact and never scarred or mangled … which backs up what Leonard’s saying right here.
