Despite what two experts said at the trial, the evidence cannot be explained away as a "hangfire" or "out of battery" discharge.

Would you be interested in knowing why the hangfire and out of battery discharge will not work here?
Forgive my ignorance but with this semi, would any hot load cause a case to look like that one? If it’s perfectly timed wouldn’t it be risky to use war time ammo?
Absolutely would love to see why it couldn’t be a hang fire.
