A body with a gunshot wound to the head was discovered in a wooded area in mid September 1983 wrapped with about 20 consecutive layers of plastic garbage bags and rope. Examination of the body revealed a bullet hole in the occipital-parietal region and a peculiar decomposition of the body. Following a forensic reconstruction of our autopsy findings, microscopic studies and other ancillary factors, we concluded that the body had been frozen for about 2 and one-quarter years prior to its being dumped along a mountain road here in Rockland County. The means by which we concluded that the victim had been frozen for about 2 and one-quarter years and other important aspects of this case are fully discussed.
1983年9月中旬,在一片树林中发现了一具头部有枪伤的尸体,尸体被大约20层连续的塑料垃圾袋和绳子包裹着。对尸体的检查发现枕顶区域有一个弹孔,并且尸体有奇特的腐烂情况。在对我们的尸检结果、显微镜研究及其他辅助因素进行法医重建后,我们得出结论,在尸体被丢弃在罗克兰县的一条山路边之前,它已经被冷冻了大约两年零三个月。我们得出受害者已被冷冻大约两年零三个月的推断方法以及该案件的其他重要方面将进行充分讨论。
