Totally empty.”*<br>*“They were picking pieces of his brain off the walls,”* the source added.<br>*“It’s bad,”* a second source who viewed the images concurred. *“Large portions of his head are missing.”*<br>A third source who viewed the photographs confirmed *“significant parts of (Paul)’s head are simply not there,”* referring to the shotgun wound to his head and neck area.<br>*“Much of his brain was just blasted out,”* the source said. |
