Q: Three and a half years after American bullets felled Osama bin Laden, controversy has been reignited over who actually pulled the trigger that fateful night now that the Navy SEAL who claims to have personally killed the al Qaeda leader has been publicly identified. 
  
 The special operations news website SOFREP.com reported Monday that Robert O’Neill is the name of the former SEAL Team Six member who was identified only as “the Shooter” in an Esquire magazine article last year titled “The Man Who Killed Osama Bin Laden… Is Screwed.” Wednesday international publications reported the name as well, and today The Washington Post published an interview with O’Neill in which he describes the terror leader’s purported final moments. Two special operations sources previously identified O’Neill as “the Shooter” to ABC News. 
  
 Despite the definitiveness of the Esquire magazine article title, there are lingering questions over whether O’Neill was the man who actually killed bin Laden, as his account differs markedly from that of Mark Owen, the pseudonymous former SEAL Team Six member who wrote the book “No Easy Day” about the bin Laden raid in 2012. 
  
 In the Esquire article, O’Neill claims he and another SEAL, the "point man," were alone on the stairs heading up to the third floor of bin Laden's compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan. Before they reached the third floor, the point man saw a man poke his head out of the bedroom doorway on the third floor so the point man unleashed a few shots in his direction. The shots missed, however, and when the pair reached the third floor, the point man peeled off to tackle two women who were in the hallway -- a move meant to protect his teammates from possible suicide bombs. O’Neill, then, was the first to enter the bedroom where he came face-to-face with bin Laden, standing just inches away, and was the one who shot him three times in the head before he could get to a nearby AK-47. 
  
 In Owen's account, Owen, the point man and a third SEAL -- since identified as Esquire's "the Shooter” and therefore O’Neill -- all went up to the third floor together after the point man's shots from the stairway. But when they entered bin Laden's room together, they found the al Qaeda leader already down and bleeding from the head. The point man's earlier shots had apparently connected. 
  
 The two women were inside the bedroom when the point man, having deemed the downed bin Laden was not a threat, tackled them into the corner. Owen and O’Neill then fired a few more bullets into bin Laden's dying body. Only later did the SEALs realize who they had killed, Owen said. 
  
 Clouding the events further is another account written by "Black Hawk Down" author Mark Bowden called "The Finish" based on interviews with higher-level military officials up the chain of command all the way to President Obama. In that account, three SEALs ascended the steps together but bin Laden was alive and standing in the bedroom when the point man entered. The point man tackled the two women in the room and the second SEAL through the door, who Bowden did not identify, was the one that shot bin Laden first in the chest and then in the head. 
  
 Bowden's book, which was still in press when "No Easy Day" hit bookshelves, later carried an insert deferring to Owen's version of events. 
  
 A spokesperson for the U.S. Special Operations Command, which oversees the Joint Special Operations Command that launched the raid, told ABC News after the Esquire article’s publication that the command wouldn't be the one to settle the controversy anytime soon. He declined to comment on operations and said the official version of events probably wouldn't be declassified for more than two decades. 
  
 That leaves the point man, the only SEAL in the room when bin Laden breathed his last who hasn't spoken publicly, to throw his hat in the ring. And according to a former member of SEAL Team Six with whom ABC News spoke in 2013, he's not the type to trade the special warfare shadows for the media spotlight. 
  
 “You’re never going to hear from him,” the ex-SEAL said then. “He’s just the type of guy that doesn’t care about it… [He] doesn’t think he did anything special. He simply pulled the trigger when he was supposed to. That’s why he’ll never go public.” 
  
 O’Neill told the Post he decided to go public because he was convinced his identity was about to be leaked anyway. He is scheduled to appear on Fox News next week. 
  
 Others in the special operations community have criticized O’Neill, and Owen before him, for apparently violating the special operations code of quiet professionalism. 
  
 High-ranking members of Naval Special Warfare sent a stinging letter to SEAL team members this week, saying that a “critical tenant of our ethos is ‘I do not advertise the nature of my work, nor seek recognition for my actions.’” 
  
 “Our ethos is a life-long commitment and obligation, both in and out of the service,” says the letter, a copy of which was posted on SOFREP.com. “Violators of our ethos are neither teammates in good standing, nor teammates who represent Naval Special Warfare.” ||||| WASHINGTON Members of the U.S. Navy Seal commando team that killed Osama bin Laden at his Pakistan hideout in May, 2011 are making conflicting claims as to who actually shot the al Qaeda leader. 
  
 The Washington Post published a story on Thursday quoting Rob O'Neill, a former SEAL, as claiming to have fired the fatal shot that hit bin Laden in the forehead after O'Neill stormed into a room in bin Laden's house in Abbottabad. 
  
 The claim by O'Neill, who travels the country giving motivational speeches, was countered by a source close to another SEAL team member. 
  
 The source, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the team member told him the fatal shot was fired by one of two other men who entered the room before O'Neill. 
  
 The Post said O'Neill acknowledged shots were fired at bin Laden by at least two other Seal team members, including Matt Bissonnette, a former Seal who wrote a 2012 book about the raid entitled "No Easy Day." 
  
 The book did not identify the person who shot bin Laden. 
  
 NBC News quoted Bissonnette on Thursday as saying: "Two different people telling two different stories for two different reasons ... Whatever he (O'Neill) says, he says. I don’t want to touch that." 
  
 Last year, after Esquire Magazine published an interview with an anonymous SEAL member, now widely reported to have been O'Neill, who claimed to have shot bin Laden, other media outlets questioned the account. 
  
 An article entitled "Who really killed bin Laden," by Peter Bergen, a CNN analyst and al Qaeda expert, quoted a then-serving SEAL team member saying the story as presented by Esquire was "complete B.S." 
  
 A representative of a speaker's organization which says it represents O'Neill said he was unavailable to comment. O'Neill's page on the website of the organization describes his career as a SEAL, but makes no mention of a role in killing bin Laden. 
  
 Bissonnette's lawyer, Robert Luskin, acknowledged Thursday that Bissonnette for some time had been under criminal investigation by both the Naval Criminal Investigation Service and the Justice Department for possible violations of a U.S. espionage law because he did not seek official clearance before publishing his book. 
  
 Bissonnette denies wrongdoing.

A: 
Robert O'Neill says his bullet killed Osama bin Laden in Abbottabad in 2011, but others aren't so sure. It's a little confusing, but as Reuters and the New York Times report, there were apparently three SEALs involved: a point man and two other shooters. In a 2013 Esquire article, O'Neill, identified only as "the Shooter," said the point man saw bin Laden first, but his shot missed; O'Neill then fired two shots into a still-standing bin Laden. Fellow SEALs, however, say "the point man" fired not just the first shot, but possibly the fatal one—certainly one that wounded bin Laden. A former commander calls O'Neill's two shots "insurance" rounds that were fired into an already-collapsed bin Laden. In his 2012 book No Easy Day, Matt Bissonnette said the point man shot bin Laden in the head, but he "was still twitching and convulsing" when Bissonnette and another SEAL "fired several rounds." Will the point man ever come forward as O'Neill and Bissonnette have? It sounds unlikely. "You're never going to hear from him," a former SEAL Team Six member told ABC News last year. He "doesn't think he did anything special. He simply pulled the trigger when he was supposed to. That’s why he’ll never go public." A rep for the US Special Operations Command says it could be at least 20 years before the official report on the raid is declassified.
