Who was Russell Kennington, the armed man arrested the day after Kirk’s killing at the crime scene?
This clip was taken on September 11th, the day after Kirk was killed. Kennington was caught after having ducked through police tape, entering the restricted area of the active investigation. Here he’s seen being arrested, while an officer is carrying a rifle with a folded barrel. Unlike Robinson, Kennington appears to be very athletic, a “military build”, and the gun being carried by the officer appears to be very light, far lighter and more compact than a WW1 Mauser. Now what is the likely explanation for his presence at the scene of the crime?
