Yes, I remember it.Think it was on this forum also. thought it ended up being reasonably concluded that this was the result of a High Voltage electrical shock which caused these wounds?KirkD wrote:There was a discussion on this some time ago, it may have been on this forum. If I recall correctly, there was a different explanation for those wounds that surfaced. I cannot recall, but it made more sense. I have my doubts about the 45-70 story. There should not be two wounds, unless one is the entrance and one is the exit. I don't think these two fit the entrance/exit scenario, because the flesh in between appears to be untouched. If a 45-70 slug did, indeed, enter at that position on the neck without miraculously smashing the spine, it would leave an internal trail of pureed meat as it traveled between the two points that would show as a massive, horrendous bruise running between the two holes. If the neck wound is not an entrance wound, then what caused it?
I dimly seem to remember something about burns from a power line as the second explanation.
I agree that it doesn't look like the explanation, but not for the reasons that KirkD notes.KirkD wrote:... There should not be two wounds, unless one is the entrance and one is the exit.
