Woman's Body After She Drowned

[Faline]

I know few pics off this have been on here but not full set and never with info. I found the info so posted it for you guys.

This woman drowned and was submerged for seven months. Here you can see "wet" adipocere formation throughout nearly all fatty tissue in her body.

Adipocere or grave wax or mortuary wax is the water-insoluble material consisting mostly of saturated fatty acids. It is formed by the slow hydrolysis of fats in decomposing material such as a human cadaver by action of anaerobic bacteria. The transformation of fats into adipocere occurs best in the absence of oxygen in cold and humid environment, such as in wet ground or mud at the bottom of a lake or a sealed cask, and it can occur with both embalmed and untreated bodies. Corpes of infants and overweight persons are particularly prone to adipocere transformation

I bet she smells REAL bad. Probably like a piece of friut accidently left in the refrigerator for an extended period of time.

Quick question: Is the Adipocere the brown substance or the matter in her ear?

It's the pale creamy coloured fats just under the skin. The darker patches are the beginings of necrosis. I don't actually think it would smell that bad as the body is very early stages of mumification.

Kelly said growler again. Snigger, the naughty minxster.

Strange how the area where her panties were is basically untouched by decomp.
