Some of the stuff I work on doesn't make the cut so I thought about gathering them up in a single post. So basically it's images I have little or no info about or I've decided that they don't get their own thread, for example, because of low image/content quality, lack of backstory or additional info/knowledge, possibly uninteresting, only one image but not very special. I still do the usual image work including upscaling and color correction as needed, as I prefer to have my content high quality and educational.

Fig1.1 Stellate entrance wound on the lip.

Distant range stellate entrance wound on the lip. Distant gunshot wounds of the head may have a stellate or irregular appearance simulating a contact wound. This phenomenon is seen with both handgun and rifle bullets. It is most common over bony prominence such as the orbital ridges. This phenomenon can be seen in other areas of the head as well, e.g., at the hairline, between the eyebrows, over the cheekbone, along the edge of the mandible, and on the top and on the back of the head. These wounds may be incorrectly interpreted as contact wounds or exits.

Fig2.1 Gunshot wound from a .357 Magnum.

Distant-range wounds of the right side of the face (from a .357 Magnum revolver). Irregular, cruciform, or stellate entrance wounds can occur in individuals shot at intermediate or distant range, where gas plays no role in the production of a wound. These occur when the bullet perforates the skin over a bony prominence or curved area of bone covered by a thin layer of tightly stretched skin. The head is the most common site for such wounds. The forehead as it slopes back at the hairline, the top and back of the head, the supraorbital ridges, and the cheekbone are common sites.

Fig3.1 Mummification. Patches of whitish-gray fungal colonization of facial skin in a case of incomplete mummification.

Mummification occurs when the moisture that promotes bacterial growth is absent; the skin dries out and becomes leathery. It is often possible to make numerous findings in a mummified body, including, for example, trauma-related injury or a natural cause of death, such as cardiac tamponade following ruptured myocardial infarct. In cases of incomplete mummification or where environmental factors are not wholly conducive to mummification, colonization of the skin surface with whitish-gray fungi is not uncommon.

Fig4.1 Advanced putrefaction and extensive maggot colonization.

Maggots cause most of the body's decomposition because the maggot will do the majority of the eating. Maggots have powerful proteolytic enzymes that aid the dissolution of tissues and facilitate penetration. The maggots are voracious and energetic, first exploring the natural passages, such as mouth and nostrils, then burrowing into the tissues. They secrete digestive fluids with proteolytic enzymes that help soften the tissues, burrowing beneath the skin, and making tunnels and sinuses that hasten putrefaction by admitting air and access to external micro-organisms. Successive waves of eggs are laid, producing new generations of maggots. Eventually, loss of tissue and drying makes the host cadaver unattractive to egg-laying insects, and the later stages of decomposition become free from maggots.

Fig5.1 Extensive whitish-gray fungal colonization following a burial time of 7 months.

It is often possible to make numerous findings after exhumation despite factors such as autolysis, putrefaction, possible animal predation, fungal colonization, mummification, adipocere, and artifacts (e.g., caused during body recovery). There is no linear correlation between postmortem interval and the detectability of findings, which depends far more on ambient conditions and the diagnostic question being posed. A body may have undergone decomposition to an extent that it is no longer possible to make a targeted assessment.

Fig6.1 Brain tissue that has undergone pulp-like transformation.

Brain tissue that has undergone pulp-like transformation (burial time, 7 weeks). In the case of a naturally mummified body, putrefaction, autolysis, as well as possible animal predation and mummification processes take place simultaneously. When this is the case, mummification, that is to say, the drying out of tissue, inhibits other decomposition processes. Brain tissue often takes on a pulp-like consistency within days or weeks, making a differentiated assessment impossible.

Fig7.1 Sharp force injury death.

There was no information with this image. A cut or incised wound is produced by a sharp edge and is usually longer than it is deep and has impacted the body in an approximately parallel (or tangential) direction to the skin surface. Because of the sharp-force mechanism of injury, incised wounds lack tissue bridging and often display very clean sharp wound edges. Knives, box cutters, glass, and metal typically cause incised wounds. In contrast, stab wounds are sharp-force injuries produced by a pointed instrument where the depth of the wound is greater than the length of the wound on the skin. Once again, there is no tissue bridging.

Most often, the object causing the injury was moving in a slashing motion, with the angles at either end having a sharp appearance. Although it is suggested by some that the direction that an incised wound was inflicted can be easily determined, for example from right to left across the neck, this is usually not possible unless there are small tags of skin rolled up along the edge of the wound similar to abrasions that have ‘‘scuffing’’ of the skin surface. Also, despite marked differences in the nature of knife blades, for example, smooth and serrated, individual wounds are often indistinguishable from one another, although serrated blades may have associated patterned superficial abrasions. Jagged pieces of glass or objects with multiple sharp points such as barbed wire may produce more irregular-shaped injuries.

Your posts always leave me wincing in my chair. And I always know not to peruse them while having a meal.

Great set, as always Herman.

After saying I was going to be cremated I changed my mind and have arranged a burial. I love the pic of 7 months after burial. Absolutely fascinating. I’m going to be bug and mould food. And I’m fine with that. I’d just rather be dead first.
Great post Herman.
