S2 Ep5: Cause of Death – Strangulation
Listening to the Dead - Forensics uncovered
03/17/21 • 34 min
In this episode the team are joined by pathologist Dr Brett Lockyer, part of the experienced team at Forensic Access (www.forensic-access.co.uk), as he reveals how to tell the difference between strangulation and hanging during a post mortem, and where best to look for evidence that a suicide is not what it seems.
Sadly, strangulation is the most common form of murder of women in the UK. Traditionally considered to be a crime of passion, it’s also a common form of domestic abuse, which is why attempted strangulation has recently been criminalised.
Over six episodes, the team will investigate six causes of death: talking with experts, hearing how real life crime scenes are worked, exploring the latest innovations and discussing some famous cases.
If you want to know what criminal investigation is like in real life, then get ready for a podcast that puts YOU at the crime scene.

He became one of the senior document examiners responsible for dealing with serious crime, including counterterrorism, cases.
