Reading enron's post . . . oops you covered most of my material already!

(shame, shame, everybody knows my name.)

I too have a BA in Anthropology. My forte was osteology. Never really enjoyed the fleshy bits, just the pearly whites . . .

I worked in law enforcement before going on to masters work in another related field; participated in about a dozen murder investigations at one level or another.

The absence of blood is one of those things that indicates a body has been moved from the perpetration scene. I don't really want to go back and look at the photos, but a lot of the blue/black marks seemed like haematomas (bruises). Dead bodies bruise where they are propped up against something, or bound with something (even a bra or sock hem). Or have something lie on top of them (a book, a bottle, a sack of groceries).

Most people imagine there must be buckets of blood at a crime scene (TV), but that really isn't the case.

The last murder I worked was of a woman killed in her home. There were two small puddles of blood, but not enough. THere was spatter, so we were certain that the murder had been done there; but why so little blood? later, it was determined that the perp had stabbed her while she was wearing a poly-filled parka. The parka soaked up almost all of the blood. Days later, he had removed the parka (it was his) and tried to dispose of it. It was found in a partly burnt oil drum. It was enough to get him life. But it goes to show that absence of blood doesn't mean much during the winter, or where there is malice and disturbance to the scene.

The fact that this dude is nude nullifies the lack of blood, IMO. Genital/anal mutilation is concomminat with homosexual assault, almost always by an assailant who new the vic (the shepherd case in montana . . .)

Honestly folks, I am by no means an expert; but wounds are like snow-flakes--no two are alike. Insects, carrion-feeders, temperature, time, all of those factors can distort a wound to the point you can't tell ANYTHING without chemical or bone tests. With this one, if the wounds are dubious, the flesh ought to be removed and the bones checked for blunt/blade/bullet marks. Bet you'd find plenty.

Was the autopsy done in the field? That's not an autopsy, that is called 'curious cops.' Why aren't there lab photos?????? Chemical and trauma analysis would answer your questions, id lay 50 on it.

A fellow anthropologist! Yay!!! - I felt so alone - (off topic) maybe you'd be interested in one of my dead threads here at ATS -
Enviromental and Cultural Adaptations

I'm gonna look at some bullet wound images and see how close they come - I think that may be it too - I just always remember what I saw as being less focused and more dispersed...along with the fact that I don't see any gunpowder, but I guess that only applies for a fairly close-range shot

Deker - I'm sorry if I sounded enraged....I always end up doing something like that and appologizing for it later - lol - I'd like to read it in English if you can find it - I hate those online translators, they never seem to work that well

Does anyone know if the original poster has even replied recently??

I guess you never seen a crocodilus/Caiman de Brasil eat before there eating habits are far from efficient. I think taking a look at the large predators of Brazil would help to disprove them as the killers in this case.

Jaguar – Panthera onca

Jaguars will pursue almost any kind of animal prey within its range, with its favorite being the peccary (a type of wild pig) and the capybara (the worlds largest rodent)

Jaguars differ from all the other cats in their method of killing. Once they’ve caught their prey they pierce the skulls with their canines, demonstrating the amazing strength of their powerful jaws.

Most other large cats will go for a neck bite sufocating thier prey

Crocodilus

Are ambush predators waiting in ambush at the water’s edge and then lunge or snap sideways at animals which come to feed or drink. Another method is dragging prey underwater, then twisting it in a ‘death-roll’ until it dies or disintergrates.

Anaconda

I dont think I even have to explain how they kill.

This man was not killed by any animal I cannot say there was no scavenger activity on the body.Most large animals rip the body of their prey apart just watch a crocodile, large cat ,Pack of wolfs most large predators eat and you will see there eating habits are far from surgical. Ofcourse most will go for the soft parts like the stomach first but will quickly move on to other parts.

This is the last time I'll post on this thread, I think a lot of you are getting sick of hearing from me.

I don't see anything in the photos that shows there was no vascular collapse. I see blood around the ear trauma, and bruises, so there was blood in the body when some of these traumas were inflicted. The bruises on the back of the thigh is where blood has coagulated while the dead body lay face-up on the ground. There's just no blood on the ground because the body has been moved.

In fact, it's not clear to me when during the photos the body was rolled over. Probably several times. That is the kind of thing you log in a real autopsy. The body is a map of the crime, and moving the body erases evidence. But no mention of when and in what order the body was moved, at least in the notes I read.

Look carefully at the photos and you will see that the skin has become leathery like parchment, and the underlying tissues (mostly water) have begun to dry and shrink. The wounds are so distended they could have been anything. But THIS body has been lying out someplace in cool air for a week or more.

Folks keep posting about the autopsy notes. They say this, they say that. You ought to ignore the text. It has been heavily edited. REAL autopsies are conducted under standardized lighting, with a ruler in every shot for scale, with time and temperature info, as well as the state of tissues on a microscopic level. The text reads like it's conclusions, but ones that you couldn't reach in the field.

As far as vascular collapse goes, this body is so badly weathered post-mortem that you'd be hard pressed to say Anything about the vascular condtion. Theres no photos of it.

Hell, most of these traumas could have been inflicted post mortem, from looking at the pix!

The hole in the arm looks like it's post mortem to me. That dark bruising is where blood has settled when the dead body was resting on an object that indented the flesh

If I was trying to help at this crime scene, here's where I'd have to start.
Here's a dead body on the ground
A lot of ugly stuff has been done to it. Burned. Punctured. shaven?

Everywhere there is trauma, i.e. ear, arm, and anus, it looks like there was further alterations after the body has become stiff. Presumeably to erase evidence of which wounds were pre vs. post-mortem, as well as to obfuscate the cause of death.

Probably some predation, too. This happens as a cold or frozen body warms up in the sunshine. Insects and rodents feed at the margins of wounds, which ooze protein rich fluid and thaw faster.

The removal of rectum was no doubt performed by human agency, perhaps long after death. Probably to remove DNA evidence. This is not uncommon, and the disfigurement totally fits in with homosexual assault, as any forensic manual will explain.

If I were seeking the perp, I'd be looking for a drug connection, or sexual, prostitution and/or gang violence.

The pics are horrible, but just like many violent deaths.

Well, that's it from me.

I think there are definantly cultural boundaries in homosexual rape....

You could compare this case to say a prison rape, which would usualy only include a beating and forced intercourse while the victim is either knocked unconscious, struggling with the rapsists, or submitting - which would each leave their own forms of evidence on the victim.

Then you have people like Dahmer, who was a necrophiliac and cannibal....so ubringing and culture definantly plays a factor - I don't know if there are actually culutural trends, but the standard that I quoted from that book a few posts back is..well...a standard - lol - It's a generalized statement that applies to almost all homosexual rapes - They tend to be far more brutal and "creative" so to speak - I'm sure copy-cats are at large in these kinds of cases too, perhaps practicing on the animals....

Somone mentioned earlier something about the precision required to remove the eyes, etc...Eyes are one of the first things to go on a dead body, they're a nice warm place for the maggots to "kick their feet up" in. Even your favorite and most loving cat will eat at your eyes if you pass away and are left alone for several weeks. I just don't see anything super weird here....it's impossible to say the blood vessels hadn't collapsed as myself and dr_strangecraft pointed out earlier b/c there are clear haematomas on the skin which means they had to have collapsed, or at least in that general area. I'm not entirely certain what it could mean if they havn't - but like dr_strangecraft said earlier - the photos are bad and the reports are even worse.....to assume that the body had not been flushed and embalmed before someone noticed this "phenomenon" is not too far from being a possibility.

could it be that the cows were raped by these gay men???
