AfriKa CRY BLOOD

I’AKOBI MALONEY did not sustain a single broken bone after falling 80 feet from a cliff to his death.

But pathologist, Dr Carl Winskog said that was not unusual.

“You would assume there would be broken bones, but that is not a certain fact,” he stated under cross examination by Andrew Pilgrim.

He explained that the absence of broken bones could be for a number of reasons including how the body fell and the surface it fell on. But he admitted that if it was a hard surface like a rock the chances of broken bones would be higher, although he pointed out that the waves could have cushioned the blow to Maloney’s body.

Dr Winskog reported that there was damage to Maloney’s abdomen and he also had a ruptured liver. (more…)
