I’m not saying that death is funny, but I had to laugh aloud at your realistic descriptions of what you often find “under the sheet”…

Love how you say things. You’re very talented.

I had always assumed that the body ‘relaxed’ back into a straight position. How wrong I was. So do you ever get people who are so curled up or tangled up on themselves that you have to force them apart? :S

I can only assume that the experts in the crime scene unit meticulously collected every leaf and twig from the hair—to the tune of a classic rock song—and that one of the leaves was traced back to a rare breed of ficus located in the lobby of the building where the killer’s dentist’s office was located.

You crack me up.

I’ve been wondering for a while (and this post prompted me to comment) whether you have heard about the Crime Lab Project? http://www.crimelabproject.com/

They are trying to raise awareness about the real state of American Crime labs and to try to dispell the CSI-effect myth that crimes can be neatly solved in one hour intervals.

Anyway, I thought it sounded like it was your cup of tea.

I always wondered about rigor mortis and the “perfectly flat” bodies on TV. Thanks for clearing that up! You have the most interesting posts…

i really appreciate your informative posts. i admit i am a csi fan, & enjoy other ‘hollywood made’ programs as well, but being able to delineate between entertainment and tragic reality is important in these times of so much fantasy. if i were homeschooling my own children right now, i would add ‘coroner stories’ as a study requirement……thankyou!!!! shanna

Have you ever noticed that they never have one that you can smell outside of the cooler either.
