Seriously, it could go either way. The only way you would really know is if you were
there or an investigator questioning family, friends, spouse, and taking any or all
forensics.
The trash can looks like it might have a bottle in it. She may have been depressed,
drunk, wrote a suicide note, kicked the stool over when she shot herself, knocked
the lamp cord from the wall socket with one foot with a flip flop being behind or
under her body.
It could be murder. Someone could have planted the gun in her hand and in doing
so, pulled the lamp cord out of the wall socket. Also, the murderer may have knocked
her flip flops around in his haste. She may not even had her flip flops on.
A right handed person rarely smokes or holds a cigarette with the left hand.
A right handed person would in fact lean the paper to the right as it appears on the desk.
There appears to be something else on the desk. A little spot of something such as a
bullet but it really makes sure that we don't know what it is.
The image is simply a psychological image of perception. Some may perceive it as
a murder and some may perceive it has a suicide. I don't think there is a right or
wrong answer.
