The finger and toenails are well groomed and free of polish.
Striae are on the shoulders. The genitals are at tromic

the upper and lower extremities, and the jaw lividity is fixed,
purple and unevenly distributed on the posterior surfaces of the body.
The body is cool. Scars on the back of the
left shoulder is an oblique one half inch well healed
linear scar. On the right lower quadrant of the abdomen
is an oblique two inches well healed linear apidectomy scar

mouth extending into the upper airway on the lips or
multiple focal red abrasions. A cervical collar encircles the neck,
electro cardiogram electrodes around the torso. An intravascular catheter is
in the left and a cubital fossa a lion is
in the right chin. A blood pressure cuff encircles the
upper right arm. On the chest. Between the nipples is
a three x three irregular yellow abrasion. Internally, there are
minimally haemorrhagic parasternal rib fractures of right ribs four through
six and left ribs five and six, approximately sixty mili
liters of liquid blood thinly coating the cerisosal surfaces of
the intra abdominal organs, and an oblique six and a
half centimeter laceration to the liver to the left of
the falciform ligament. Artifacts of resuscitative chest compressions. Clothing. The
body is received clad in a hospital gown. Injuries external
and internal. These injuries are described in reference to standard
anatomic planes. These injuries are grouped and labeled for descriptive
purposes only no sequence is implied a hanging There is depressed,
focally dried, and a braided non circumferential ligature furrow of
the neck that peaks slightly on both sides of the neck,
more steeply on the right side than on the left side.
On the right side of the neck, the furrow bifurcates
anterior to the ear, with one arm that peaks behind
the right ear and one arm that extends to the
right side of the back of the neck. On the
back of the right side of the neck at the
end of the lower arm of the furrow is a
half by one inch irregular redibrasion. The furrow ranges from
thirteen and three fourths to fifteen centimeters long, It doesn't
say measured from both ends of the furrow on the right,
and ranges from one eighth to one half wide. Anterior,
the furrow passes over the thyroid cartilage on the upper
edge of the right side of the furrow. Beneath the
chin is an adjacent three fourths to one time inverted
V shaped linear abrasion that ranges in width from one
eighth to one fourth. Beneath the left side of the
mandible is a faint one half to one and three
fourths irregular red abrasion with multiple intersped deeper red abrasions
that measure up to one fourth two three eighths. The
face and head are plethoric above the furrow, with pedical
hemorrhages of the face that are most marked. Within the eyebrows.
There are multiple pedical hemorrhages of the beryl conjunctive of
both eyes and confluent hemorrhages of the periphery of the
right bulbar conjunctiva. There are faint petical hemorrhages on the
mucosol surfaces of the upper and lower lips. Yo. I
wish I knew Latin that would make this a little
bit easier, huh. Within the parenchyma of the tongue or
multiple focal spotty purple hemorrhages, there is diffuse purple hemorrhage
at the base of the tongue. There are no hemorrhages
of the anterior strap muscles of the neck. Posteriorly, there
is a single hemorrhage in the left deep parispinal muscle.
Both thyroid cartilage coronae are fractured, and the left corne
of the hyoid bone is fractured, all with accompanying soft
tissue hemorrhages see anthropology report. There are no fractures of
the cervical vertebrae b other injuries. On the back of
the left forearm is an oblique one linear red abrasion
with an adjacent half to one in one fourth faint redibrasion.
On the medical aspect of the back of the right
wrist is a one eighth to one half faint red contusion,
and on the medical aspect of the back of the
left rige is a similar one half to three fourth
faint red contusion. Internally, there is a deep muscle hemorrhage
of the left deltoid muscle. Internal examination head, the scalp
is without contusion or laceration. The skull is without fracture.

bladder that contains approximately five milli liters of cloudy yellow urine.
The prostate is slightly and diffusely enlarged, with marked enlargement
of vera montanum. The testes are unremarkable. Yo, that sucks. Huh.
You end up dying and somebody tells you at the
end of it, your testes are unremarkable. I mean, at
the end of the day, when you really chop it up,
we're nothing but sacks of meat, right, And when you
read a report like this really slams at home. Endocrine

radiographs are taken, Photography autopsy photos are taken, and this
report is reviewed by Jason K. Graham, First Deputy Chief
Medical Examiner. All Right, folks, so that is what Christian
Roman had to say about Jeffrey Epstein and his death.
And as we continue to take a look at what's
going on here, the next step is we're going to
dive into what Barbara Sampson had to say when she
put together her case notes and her report into the
death of Jeffrey Epstein. All the information that goes with
this episode can be found in the description box.
