Abstract
The examination of human remains according to forensic standards is a complex process that requires the participation of several different forensic medical specialties. In this article, we present a complex forensic investigation that involved a double homicide. The bodies were found in a state of near-complete skeletonization indicating that they had been skeletonized. Through the use of forensic DNA analysis, we were able to determine the identification of the two bodies, as well as identify injuries that were caused by firearms and stabbing weapons that occurred around the time of death. The post-mortem examinations allowed us to establish the two bodies’ biological characteristics, including ancestry, gender, age, and height. Two of the persons who were found to be responsible for the criminal conduct were sentenced to life in prison for the crime of homicide. The other two individuals were identified as being involved in the criminal act. The justices gave their approval to the reconstruction of the crime that was carried out by the prosecutor, which involved a double murder with gunshots.
