Determining the correct cause and manner of death are among the chief responsibilities of the forensic pathologist. When confronted with a case having a questionable manner of death, it is important for scene evidence, witness statements, and forensic autopsy findings to be thoroughly reviewed before certifying the manner of death. Herein three gunshot wound cases are presented which initially were suspected to be suicides but were instead determined to be homicides through full investigations with correlation to autopsy findings.
确定正确的死因和死亡方式是法医病理学家的主要职责之一。当面对一起死亡方式存疑的案件时，在确定死亡方式之前，全面审查现场证据、证人陈述和法医尸检结果非常重要。本文介绍了三起枪伤案件，这些案件最初被怀疑是自杀，但通过与尸检结果相关的全面调查，最终被确定为他杀。
