Question

On a ceiling, there were tiny droplets of blood less than 1 mm in diameter. The victim was lying in a pool of blood. No other marks were found on the other walls. Which best explains the sequence of events?
The victim was shot with a gun from behind and collapsed on the floor beneath.

The victim shot himself in the mouth.

The victim was stabbed with a knife.

The victim was hit in the head with a blunt object.

Answer 1

Answer: "On a ceiling, there were tiny droplets of blood less than 1 mm in diameter." this can discard the knife theory.

"No other marks were found on the other walls" this is an interesting part, because usually a bullet would leave a mark in the walls or the ceiling, and this is not the case here, so we also could the "shot from behind"

"The victim was lying in a pool of blood". A hit in the head, actually could cause a hemorrhage, and maybe also could spread the tiny droplets of blood, because they have 1mm diameter, they are really tiny . But the second option is the really more likely, the only problem here is that there are no marks of a bullet in the ceiling.

Answer 2

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option. The statement that would best explain the sequence of events would be that the  victim shot himself in the mouth. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
