[drgrissom.livejournal.com]

For those of you just coming back from the Body Farm field trip, grab a bottle of lemon juice and hit the showers. I will be doing the same.

We will then begin class, please share your experiences at the Body Farm, and if you were unable to attend please ask questions of your classmates.

For next class, please study this handout.



[OOC: NO HAVING PORNFESTS IN THE LOCKER ROOM OMG. Peeping, towel snapping, and general tomfoolery allowed. Also, I haven't been able to restore mrsvandekamp's posting access, sorry for the delay Europeans! Go to class HERE for today. Thanks.]

It's probably out of fear that if someone is capable of ID-ing the bod, that they'll also be able to trace down the murderer.

Or if you're dealing with serial killers, they're obsessed with the killing itself and with death. It's probably a psychological disorder that makes them do mutilate the body.

yeah i think so too. I mean honestly you would have to be totally deranged to do some of the things we saw at the farm. I understand the fear involved and the actions someone would take to hide a murder if it was a one time deal or a 'crime' of passion so to speak. but *shudders* that was some seriously messed up stuff.
