Bob Lee killing: Momeni's forensics expert supports self-defense
Briefly

"Usually a vital organ is targeted when someone assaults someone else with a knife. However, Lee was stabbed in the hip, and Marraccini stated that 'the pathway was very superficial' and 'very atypical,' which raises the question: 'Was this a deflection attempt?'"
"Defense attorneys claim Momeni was not angry with Lee, but with his friend Jeremy Boivin for allegedly sexually assaulting his sister, asserting Momeni acted in self-defense."
"Marraccini supported the defense's argument that Lee drew the knife from his pocket, and Momeni turned it around on him - a scenario that Marraccini said was plausible after reviewing the knife wounds."
"Much of Marraccini's testimony was speculative, however, and other scenarios could have played out, acknowledging that alternate theories were available to interpret the evidence presented."
