But beyond a reasonable doubt becomes a really, really important thing here. The reason I say that is because—and go back and refer to my other video if you wish—I listed a whole bunch of doubts there, maybe about eight or nine of them, really significant. These aren't small things, things that just don't make any sense.
Some people know that I'm an author and I write books. I've written nine novels, eight of them about a team of mercenary assassins. Just call it what they are. They go after the bad guys, the cartel people, the traffickers, and they kill them. They get rid of them. They plunder their accounts. They save the victims. They go and get the girls out, but they kill the bad guys. And many of these involve very, very intricate operations where I've had to spend many, many, many hours planning on how would you do this?
Now, I want to point out a couple of things that probably seem obvious, but I think that it bears stating. One of the things that you do if you're an operative, if you're putting an operation together—and I will tell you the minute I saw this, the first couple of things that came out on this, that's what my brain said. Boom. Click. A little click. I said, "Well, that was an operation. That wasn't some Twinkie up on a roof. That was an operation." I'm going to go into that in just a little bit.
One of the things you do is you create distraction, sleight of hand. It's like a magician, right? You distract people in one attention with one hand while you're moving something with the other. You become so good at it that people don't see it, or everybody looks in one direction but actually the real event is coming from a different place simultaneously. This is what happens when you're planning this type of an event. I've studied some of the ones that were done by specific agencies around the world where people knew they knew who did it. They never caught the individuals because those guys disappear, and that's what they do.
The other thing is you make sure that somebody else gets blamed for it, and you make sure that all of the potential evidence is destroyed. There are certain principles here, and this is why I say the first thing I looked at, they said, "Oh, that's an operation." I don't know all the players. I'm not saying that. I don't want to get into that because there's a lot of that going on. "Well, it's this country. It was that country. It was these guys." I don't know. But looking at those bits and pieces, that was the first thing. Just it was just that little ping in my brain. "Oh, that was an operation."
Okay. So what happens is you create this diversion, and while everybody is looking at that, or simultaneously to the diversion, the deed gets done. Now I'm going to explain to you one way that this could have happened here. And I've actually seen some other people talk about this, but right off the bat, I looked at this and I started sending messages to my sons. I said, "Ah, what do you think of this? What do you think of that?" And I've avoided talking about this, but I want you to know that there is a weapon, a gun, if you want to call it that, called a PCP. That's pre-charged pneumatic. It's basically an air gun.
And there are pistols, there are handguns, there are rifles, there are various types of ballistics in all the way from .177 all the way up into .54 caliber, which is, you know, big as your finger. And these can be suppressed, often are. They're almost silent. It sounds like your hand clapping. And the ballistic on those is traveling only at about 500 feet per second. Now, the .306 round at that distance was traveling about 2600 feet per second with 2300 foot-pounds of energy.
What we're talking about with a PCP weapon is much, much less, still very, very deadly in the right hands, but quiet. You would never even know, especially if you used a remote triggering device to set off a ballistic.
