The program was quite interesting. Basically said the behavior the bullet would exhibit passing through bodies is consistent with the evidence.

Also looked at whether there could have been a shot from the front. They had an expert in head wounds from gun shots - he suggested the way the skull fractured, it could have only been from the back.

They then talked about why his body would have jerked backward - they suggested with such a head blow it would trigger muscle/nerve reflex - because back muscles are stronger than abdominal a jerking back can be expected.
