CLOTHING The body was ot clothed, and the clothing was not available for examination at the time of autopsy. ‘TRAUMA: For purposes of identification and convenience, injuries are arbitrarily numbered and this is not an opinion as to the order in which these wounds were sustained. The following descriptions represent probable trajectories through the body/organs. Other combinations of entrance, bullet, exit, and organ wounds cannot be excluded since there are 6 overlapping gunshot wound paths in the torso. Due to the overlapping paths, and twisting/movement of the body during the shooting, it is not possible to determine with absolute certainty the trajectories All entrance wounds are round, measure 4”, and have marginal abrasion. All exit wounds are round with irregular edges, measure %”, and have no marginal abrasion.
