people, and even trying to find missing loved ones, even you've got a cadaver dog there with you. tell me what you're doing and how difficult this has been and what you're seeing out there. >> well, we work with the united cajun navy and it is just total devastation. floods are just, you know, the water is so powerful. it can just basically destroy anything. we have been out there, at this point, it turned into just looking for missing people, so you get a phone call from someone saying that they can't get a hold of so and so, so we have to go out there and try to find that person. so, yeah, it is, you know, been pretty much nonstop with that. now they're looking at more rain coming. >> they're looking at more rain coming. there are, you know, warnings in effect. and we're looking at these pictures out of jackson, kentucky. it is just water everywhere, all the way up to the tops of roofs.
Providing accurate and reliable measures of decomposition is paramount for forensic research where decomposition progress is used to estimate time of death. Mass loss is routinely used as a direct measure of biomass decomposition in ecological studies, yet few studies have analysed mass loss in a forensic context on human cadavers to determine its usefulness for modelling the decomposition process. Mass loss was examined in decomposing human and pig cadavers, and compared with other common decomposition metrics, such as total body score (TBS). One summer and one winter field decomposition experiment was conducted using human and pig cadavers, as pigs are often used as proxies for human cadavers in forensic research. The two measures of decomposition revealed two contrasting patterns of decomposition on pigs and humans, particularly in winter where TBS stabilised at similar values, but mass loss differed greatly. Mass loss was found to be faster in pigs than humans during early decomposition. Pigs lost 75% of their mass in winter, while humans lost less than 50%; however, in summer, both lost around 80% of their mass. TBS displayed similar patterns in both experiments, with TBS increasing more rapidly in pigs compared with humans but both eventually reaching similar TBS values in late decomposition. Measuring mass loss can provide additional information about decomposition progress that is missed if using TBS only. Key differences in decomposition progress between cadaver types were also observed, suggesting caution when extrapolating data from pigs to humans for forensic research and decomposition modelling.
we gave him a painful a sternum stimulant stimuli to check the scene to see if their conscious are alert. >> so i parked him up a little bit? it woke him up >> all of a sudden like he came to life and said, what happened? we don't know what was going on in his mind that made him act like that. >> was it just a price? or what? >> stephen had already allowed detectives to bring a cadaver dug into his apartment and did show some interest. but it is hard to know if it meant anything. but that combined with stephen 's odd behavior was enough to take him back downtown to the station for another check. new questions. a little more pointed now. >> were you friends with, lauren? look at >> yes. >> look at me when you're talking to me, son. okay? >> were you friends were there. >> yes. >> every answer is yes. we told him to look at as when

Not enough people are donating their bodies to science, and this is affecting surgeons' ability to hone their skills by practicing on cadavers, according to a new study.
hinton's home, about 30 miles away from emory university. shannon's family found out about it from the local news. >> we know you are the primary suspect in the disappearance of shannon melendi, and we like to take just talk to. >> i glanced the tv and i see a picture of an officer going like this, with the rod, and one of the planters. they >> were at his house? >> yes. we already knew that he was a suspect, so they were at his house searching the house. >> where the cops letting even on this? >> very little. >> what did you find? >> that house was gone through with a fine tooth comb, they say. they also took a cadaver dogs down there to see if there was any evidence of a body being there. we found nothing down there. >> no sign that shannon had ever been there? >> that we could find. >> but, in the trash pit behind enten's house, they did find something interesting. a collection of women's clothing. anything from shannon, any
him, and he just stared like he was staring off into space. even shook him, and he just still kept staring off into space. finally, i ended up doing a sternal rub on him, a paramedic as well. >> a sternal rub? >> it's called a sternal rub, which a stimuli you give someone -- >> on the sternum. >> on the sternum, to check to see if they are unconscious or alert. >> so that perked him up a little bit. >> it woke him up. all of a sudden he came to life, like what happened? didn't know what was going on in his mind that made him act like that. >> was it just surprise, or what? >> stephen had already allowed detectives to bring a cadaver dog into his apartment, and it did show some interest, but it was hard to know if it meant anything. but that, combined with stephen's odd behavior was enough to take him back downtown to the station for another chat, the questions a little more pointed now. >> was you friends with lauren? >> yes.
