“…The presence of blood on the scene of the discovery and the exsanguination of the organs are indicators, as we noted in our case. But to eliminate post-mortem decapitation, the presence of vital reaction in autopsy and histology is essential [7,10,26]. It is objectified, as in our case, by the presence of an infiltration of tissues and cervical vessels, as well as fractures.…”

“…Decapitation consists of the separation of the head of the body [10]. It is historically associated with the judiciary's executions, with using a sword or axe in medieval England or a guillotine during the French Revolution [2,11].…”

“…It is historically associated with the judiciary's executions, with using a sword or axe in medieval England or a guillotine during the French Revolution [2,11]. More recently, this method was used by the cartels of drug, in armed conflicts and terrorist acts [2,10]. In forensic medicine, the cases of decapitation are rather rare.…”

“…In forensic medicine, the cases of decapitation are rather rare. Various centers have collected the cases of decapitation in their activity, without distinction of origin, and have recorded few cases; the study of Rao found 26 cases per 3907 autopsies [10], that of Tsokos 10 per 7681 [3] and those of Kumral and Byard respectively 19 per 36270 [12] and 20 per 16589 [4]. The origin of the decapitation (accident, homicide and suicide) would be in association with the socio-economic and cultural local influence.…”

“…It should not be forgotten that decapitation can be related to post-mortem dismemberment. This method is used to make it difficult the identification of a body or to keep a trophy [10,12]. Rarely, post-mortem decapitation can be linked to the action of an animal.…”

Introduction toThe Problem: Life is the greatest gift human beings receive. Man can achieve any task with life, and without it, man can do nothing. Thus, attempts by the State to punish human beings with the death penalty for wrongdoing are reaping the pros and cons. It is clear the stance of Western human rights activists opposed to the death penalty. What is interesting is that, although Islamic law supports it, many educated Muslims have objected to the death penalty. Purpose/Objective Study: The purpose of this research is to analyze and respond to the arguments used by Indonesian Muslim human rights activists, especially those integrated into human rights organizations, which are anti-death penalty. It is hoped that these reviews and responses will contain more definite opinions that can provide enlightenment for all. Design/Methodology/Approach: This research used a descriptive, analytical approach. Therefore, it employed secondary data and normative methods combined to case and statute approach in studying, analyzing, and responding to the arguments of anti-death penalty human rights activists among Indonesian Muslims. Their cases are to be brought forward, investigated, and then returned one by one. Findings: The research found that the human rights ideology propagated by western human rights activists is influencing Indonesian Muslim activists. They have the same point that the death penalty degrades humanity and violates human rights. In the meantime, Islamic law defends the death penalty for providing justice to the victims and the wider community, and for preserving life.

This essay will provide an overview of the work of narrative criminologists and how that scholarship overlaps with the work of narrative folklore. Criminologists have long relied on stories as an essential aspect of their work, but “narrative criminology” only entered scholarly conversations of criminologists in the 2000s. Drawing on the case of the West Virginia co-ed murders in 1970, I will demonstrate how narrative criminologists and folklorists might work together to create a new methodology that I’m calling forensic narrative analysis.
