“…There was some discoloration (light brown) presumptively due to the soil (Lowe et al, 2013;Stuart & Ueland, 2017), and the t-shirt had almost become transparent due to the amount of decomposition, making it easy to see the pink/red coloration of the muscle at the (butcher cut) exposed muscle surface (Appendix A, Figure 1a1). While removing the t-shirt, there continued to be brown discoloration of the fabric throughout the wrapped layers, but increasingly patchy areas of yellow discoloration were evident, arguably from the decomposition of fat and skin (Beever, 2014;Bostock, Parkes, & Williams, 2018;Geisenberger et al, 2014;Lowe et al, 2013) (Appendix A, Figure 1a2). As the unwrapping proceeded and the t-shirt fabric layers got closer to the sample, it became increasingly difficult to remove the covering from the specimen.…”

One of the first questions forensic investigators are asked upon arrival at a crime scene is how much time has elapsed since death. This is a question that is difficult to answer and, in instances of advanced decomposition, unobtainable. Human decomposition is a complicated process largely dependent on chemical, biological, and environmental factors that influence the rate of decomposition. Temperature, moisture, oxygen, insect activity, burial depth, and types of bodily coverings are a few of the conditions that are known to alter decomposition rates (Burns,

BackgroundStudies have shown that psychological factors, notably interpersonal needs and emotion regulation, play a significant role in suicidal behavior. Interpersonal needs are significant contextual components that affect emotion regulation and contribute to a wide range of dysfunctional behaviors, such as suicidal behavior. It has been postulated that emotion regulation mediates the associations between proximal and distal risk factors of suicidal behavior.MethodThe sample consisted of 340 community-dwelling individuals (62.5% women; SD = 0.48) with an age range of 18 through 55 (M = 30.23; SD = 8.54) who completed the interpersonal needs questionnaire, the suicide behaviors questionnaire-revised, and the cognitive emotion regulation questionnaire. The Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) approach was utilized to evaluate a mediation model.ResultsThe findings indicate that interpersonal needs (i.e., perceived burdensomeness r = .55, p <.01 and thwarted belongingness r = .25, p <.01) and putatively maladaptive cognitive emotion regulation strategies (i.e., self-blame; r = .38, p <.01, catastrophizing; r = .55, p <.01, rumination; r = .40, p <.01, and other blame; r = .44, p <.01) have strong associations with suicidal behavior, and these strategies have a mediating effect on the association between interpersonal needs and suicidal behavior.ConclusionsOur findings show that contextual-interpersonal needs, which underpin suicidal behavior, are significantly influenced by maladaptive emotional processes. Thus, therapeutic outcomes might be enhanced by focusing on the content of the associated cognitions and trying to reduce maladaptive regulatory processes like rumination and catastrophization.
