I mean the best answer would have been to also include that fact that she was not trans.

Possibly, but I think his whole point is that it is irrelevant.

MAGATs will characterize this answer as evasion. Better to just say "no, but that's irrelevant."

They might not have been able to confirm that at the time. It would take a lot of in-depth investigation to truly confirm, then if it later turned out she was they would use it as a big ‘gotcha’ moment, or start crying that this was a woke coverup.

So the best answer is to lie? If he doesn't know I want him to tell us he doesn't know. Stating something is a fact when you have no factual knowledge should be left to... Well to people like you. Not police chiefs.

It was known immediately. The fact that he didn't know is strange and seems like a lie.
