The results of the incident would give a clear direction in which the firearm was pointed. However, it is interesting to note that Stanley gave a concise picture as to how he placed his hands while he was trying to remove the keys from the vehicle (I believe the pistol was in his right hand, which he placed on the window sill of the drivers door while reaching over the steering column, this would reasonably place the direction of travel of the spent casing up and forward towards the windshield which likely then would have deflected it downwards into the vent). The jury has concluded that his statements were factual.
