[Alleged and real signs of contact gunshot wounds of entrance holes of skull bones (author's transl)].
This report on firearm tests with dead bodies deals with external marginal splinterings from entrance holes in bone, the trapping of hairs, and the stability of powder smoke deposits on bones under the influence of special postmortal conditions and preparatory treatment. The investigations were carried out in connection with an expertise in a case of murder in Africa in which the question of the distance of shooting had to be evaluated after 6 months of decomposition, action of ants, and preparation.
