...crossed the minds of many legal experts as well. In an era when tabloids compete for scoops with their checkbooks, telling all to a tabloid is usually a surefire credibility killer. The O.J.

Ballistic tests suggest that the bullet that killed Cosby came from that gun, and DNA testing links the hair to MIKAIL MARKHASEV.
