I am a rookie forensic pathologist blooging my way through the first year on the cutting room floor. It's graphic in here-- there's blood and worse. Look away or read on: it's up to you.

scene photos

a man stands at the back of the picture at the edge of a roadway or parking lot. you can see the yellow tape in the foreground, but it's a little out of focus. he's wearing a dark blue suit in a style forty years out of date. behind him is a disorderly row of bushes. he's squinting slightly; you can't tell which way he's looking.

in the second shot, the camera has moved toward the bushes. there is a pale thing stuck into them. it is the back and hips of woman, crumpled into a strange, awkward seated position, crammed against the bushes. she is nude.
