Nursing students of Ms. Therese Volmer worked as forensic pathologists to determine the unfortunate demise of a pickle. Step one) complete information about the victim including name, age, sex, height, weight, mass, date of death, and date of the autopsy. Step 2) perform an external autopsy examining the body for abnormalities such as wounds, markings, scars, tattoos, etc., and record their observations. Step 3) students used scalpels to make incisions on both dorsal and ventral sides of the body according to directions to expose internal contents. Step 4) record observations. Step 5) conduct a toxicology test to determine if the victim was “under the influence” of the drug mecadamine. Step 6) students ascertained their professional findings and determined the manner of death.
