Hi James,
Only one person living can tie up all the puzzles of this case that being Valerie, of course the poor woman would never comment on the scene now some 48 years on, but it would be helpful in determining the actual events as they unfolded, and stop all this speculating.
If the gunman opened fire at MG, When the victim was in the act of passing over the duffle bag, then clearly both hands would not have ended up clutching the steering wheel, unless.
a] They were placed there,
b] Mike reached over with his left hand on the bag , and the right one on the wheel, and the impact of the shots sent, his left hand back to the wheel.
All complicated stuff, but obviously both hands got fixed on the wheel somehow.
I would say either a, or b. was the answer.
The whole crux of the matter , is not unlike the Ripper murders , we are guilty of suspecting all kinds of jiggery/P, when a simple explanation is obviously present.
Regards Richard.
