When I finally got there I went immediately to the mortician who was going to handle the body, he looked at me, "Ah, Glad to see your finally here. I was just about to begin."

I put on surgical gloves as I saw him turn on the tape recorder, "Victim appears to have been strangled by hand due to the bruising on the neck. " He picked up her hand, and scraped under the nails. "There is epidermals underneath her nails, no doubt belonging to the murder." he put it ina tiny white envelope for evidence. He opened her mouth, " She is younger then 18." he combed her hair finding a wet plume. From some kind of bird he put it in a different white baggie.
"I found a tiny feather in her hair. It must have stuck because of the rain outside." he continued, "The sexual assault kit proved it was not rape, she had 1211 gold left on her so it couldn't be burglary." He grabbed the scalpel and then began tocut from her collar bone down, "Now beginning the incision..." he took out her stomach contents and placed it in a jar. "Looks like her last meal was sushi, she must have had it before the attack. It isn't fully digested. Her rigormortis proves she was dead about 2 hours before she was found. Giving her the time of death approximately, 4:40 pm." He stopped the recording, "Now I'm going to check her neck, to see if it was strangulation."

He started the recording again, "The stomach contents will be sent to detox for further analysis. The markings on her neck show that the murderer had to use two hands, probably due to his or her strength. They couldn't do it with just one they needed both. I will need to take an xray and check the lungs for any ruptured cells, to see if it is consistent with the strangulation or if it was post mortem."

That was the end of the autopsy, as he stopped the recording he looked at me. "I will send you the results of the death. You can count strangulation as a High possibility. Here is the epidermals and plume that was found on the body. As well as her clothing." He gave him a huge brown paper bag marked evidence. "Good luck."

"This is going to take much more then luck." I said and then walked out.
