Despite Leslie Allen Merritt Jr.'s impromptu assertion in court Saturday, investigators said they have proof that the gun wasn't in any pawn shop at the time of four shootings they say he carried out.
Newly released charging documents detail the detective work that traced the gun to the suspect after he took it to a pawn shop. Weapons from various local pawn shops were test-fired at the state lab, Arizona Department of Public Safety spokesman Bart Graves said.

Man a crazy with a gun, go figure.
I am not buying the way they are claiming the authorities caught this guy. There are gaping holes between the connected dots.
Like was this guy a suspect and they looked into his guns or did the cops just get super lucky in testing random guns at random pawn shops? Was there an anonymous tip? Bullet fragments? Fragments being left from when a bullet hits anything hard is not impossible to believe but again I just dont buy it.But even then you cant just pull up an APP to match the findings. How did this guys name come up? It all seems rather convenient.
2:37pm go suck on a cops night stick, dork.
The copy cat shootings that have occurred since his arrest are disturbing.Those shootings have an identical MO minus the same gun that was confiscated and now in police custody.Anticipate his release.
They needed a White face to fit the agenda.

thanks for your insightful comments I can tell from your amusing put down that you are a very smart 4th grader. Did you write this at recesss? HILARIOUS
Wonder if a pawn shop employee/friend of employee could have used the gun to do it. Shouldn't be too hard for him to provide an alibi for the 4 times the gun was used. If he can't, prob guilty.
Good point 7:29.I can't recall a more appropriate time to polygraph everyone who could possibly be involved.As you have eluded to,that would also include pawn shop employees.
