Crime Scene – The Body. A Forensic Expert on Suspicious Deaths, Autopsies, and Investigations

Mary Cassidy has a straightforward approach to death: it needs to be understood. And if there is evidence that it was violent, action must be taken to ensure justice prevails. In her 30-year career, she has performed thousands of autopsies, worked on identifying soldiers from mass graves, studied the bodies of victims of serial and domestic murders and accidents, testified in court, and sometimes encountered alternative versions of the case being investigated. In this book, she shares details of the most heartbreaking, mysterious, and simply complex cases she has been involved in, as well as discussing the origins of forensic pathology and modern forensic examination methods.
