Description
Equivocal Death: Investigating Suicide, Accidental, and other Questionable Deaths refocuses the attention of first responders and investigative personnel to the concept of treating every death as a homicidethat is, until sufficient evidence is discovered to validate another manner of death and eliminate the possibility of a staged homicide.All death investigations should include a well-documented and examined crime scene and a thorough preliminary investigation. It is a well-established, unwritten rule when conducting death investigations to initially treat every death as a possible homicide. This includes the examination of the body, the recovery scene, the autopsy, collection of forensic evidence, and subsequent laboratory analysis. Police and investigators are often confronted with a death scene that they cannot initially determine the manner of death: these instances are known as equivocal death.Coverage focuses on the basics of death investigation and the how tos rather than dwelling on extraneous and unnecessary detail. By example, it is generally more important for the detective or CSI to understand how to properly pick up forensic evidence at the sceneand how the resulting analysis relates to their investigationrather than the mechanics of how the evidence is extracted and analyzed at the lab. For suicide and equivocal deaths, it is likewise important that detectives also understand the importance of such things as a victimology assessment, risk factors, and/or ante mortem behaviors of the victimcues that would be consistent with someone contemplating suicide. The book also features several aspects of criminal investigation that are not found in similar books including coverage of victimology including: crime scene staging, the notion of psychology autopsy, and how to identify those risk factors or behaviors that are consistent with suicide including motive, intent, and ability. As such, Equivocal Death: Investigating Suicide, Accidental, and other Questionable Deaths serves as an essential reference for the detective, crime scene investigators, coroners and medical examiners, medicolegal investigators, and prosecutors actively involved in these types of cases.
