How would they have deducted from his exploded skull that the cause was chewing gum dipped in explosive powder? That is some incredible forensic work. Or maybe they had cameras?

Well when you find a guy with an exploded face, it obviously warrants some further Investigation. I could imagine them looking for a bullet and not finding any, then investigating further. The info about him dipping his chewing gum in citric acid might have been given by friends, they also found the explosive, and from there it's not a huge jump to the explanation they found.
