He had a pistol in his right hand, and investigators later confirmed gunshot residue on his hand.
They found a single shell casing in the truck and a suicide note on his passenger seat.
“All findings were consistent with a self-inflicted gunshot wound,” the report from Charleston County Coroner Bobbi Jo O’Neal reads.
The gunshot wound is listed as Barnett’s official cause of death.
The manner “is best deemed, ‘Suicide’,” the coroner concludes in the report.
