If we're to believe Shkannontrice, which still seems most likely, ridiculous tricks are involved either way.

EP4, Shannon is found dead by the well with her face blown off. Suicide seems logical, but a gun would be lying near the corpse. If we're to believe Maria collected the gun, she would not only have to know where the well to Kuwadorian is, her body would be soaking wet when Battler found her. Not to mention he comments on how her body looked as if it was moved into a position to look like she was sleeping peacefully.

Another anon a couple of threads back commented that the novel Umineko is heavily influenced from, And Then There Were None, has a gun trick that makes it look like it wasn't suicide. She was found by the well, it's not impossible to assume she situated herself in such a way that the gun would drop into it, the spacings were roughly 8 inches apart after all.

It's a bullshit trick, since it's not like Shannon can be sure the gun will fall neatly into that space, but it works. I wouldn't write off an insulin death either.
