8220;Burnt Beyond Recognition”. Identifying a body typically follows the same process. Viewing someone is the quickest and easiest method, but in the case of someone burnt beyond recognition other means must be used. Fingerprints are the next avenue provided the fingertips weren’t too damaged by the fire. Extremities are often the first parts of the body to be “cremated” if the fire burns hot enough and long enough. Responses to ““Burnt Beyond Recognition””. Feed for this Entry.

I also never knew so many people committed suicide. Unless there’s an article in the paper discussing suicide rates, they really aren’t that publicized. Family members and funeral directors are understandably reluctant to include this detail in someone’s obituary. Unless someone takes their own life in a public setting or a very unusual way like jumping off a building or Suicide by Cop, the news media seems fairly reluctant to cover suicides.

https://coronerstories.wordpress.com/about
Welcome to CoronerStories.com. I have worked as an investigator within a medical examiner system for going on five years now. Over the holidays, my brother-in-law. Suggested that some of my experiences may be of use or interest to others. I was inclined to agree with him because I routinely meet people who are curious about forensic death investigation and more specifically about what I do for a living. So with my brother-in-law’s help, I have launched this website to present responses to those que...

8220;An Instrument of Death”. Back then, I always wondered what it must be like to have a job so important that a cell phone was critical. One of those jobs that required a person to be available at all times. Something impressive like a corporate executive, a Hollywood mogul, or a government agent. Hotline using their cell phone.

“Manner of Death” | Coroner Stories
https://coronerstories.wordpress.com/2007/01/27/“manner-of-death”
I’m embarrassed to admit how long ago the following question was asked. I remember setting it aside because it was a good topic and I wanted to give it a well developed answer. Thanks for your patience, Terri. I do understand that sometimes other investigative agencies other than the coroner are relied upon to determine manner of death, but let’s say someone has a gun shot wound. All agencies know who shot this person. The question is was it justifiable or not? Even though the manner of death is listed a...

He’s already met the “250 Pound Rule” which states that “Anyone who dies in an apartment building above the first floor is guaranteed to weigh at least 250 pounds.” Hundreds of apartment buildings in this city and they seem to have all been constructed before the days of handicap accessibility.

8220;Autopsy vs. Investigation”. They also did not estimate the time of death. I would really appreciate any answer you could provide me with especially in what they look for in a short drop hanging. Thank you so much. The best comparison is to think of a vehicle in a car crash. A mechanic doesn’t need to tear down the motor to figure out why the car doesn’t run when the engine has been pushed into the cab of the vehicle. Hopefully this information helps you in some way. If I had determined that the bone...
