Emails about the potential burned item found in the car

At 2:15 · chapter starts 1:45

After releasing additional photos of the interior of Charlie Kirk's SUV, Candace Owens was flooded with emails from an unexpected cross-section of experts: stay-at-home mothers who sew, fashion industry professionals, and plastic and reconstructive surgery nurses — all independently concluding that the charred, cardboard-like object is Kirk's burned polyester shirt. She reads one particularly detailed email from a surgical nurse who explains the physical science: polyester is essentially plastic, and when an electrical current passes through it, the fabric melts, hardens into a rigid form, and bonds to the skin beneath it. Removing it in a clinical setting requires a procedure called debridement. The black visible on the object, the nurse explains, is necrotic burned skin — described viscerally as 'burning a piece of chicken skin.' Owens and her team then conducted a makeshift experiment, burning a 50/50 polyester-blend shirt in a fire pit and photographing the result. The visual match to the object in Kirk's SUV, while not perfect given the difference between a fire pit and an explosion, was close enough to stun even Owens herself.
