Relation between Partial Mechanical Injuries and Nature of Death in High-falling Cases：An Analysis of 205 Cases / 法医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the relation between the behavior psychology analysis of partial me-chanical injuries and the nature of death in high-falling cases, and provide reference, for such cases. Methods Of 311 death victims of high-falling injuries collected from 2008 to 2013, 205 cases were as-sociated with partial mechanical injuries. The characteristics of injury formation, preliminary crime scene traces, fatal injury of high-falling, and text messages were all retrospectively analyzed. Results Accord-ing to the investigation of preliminary crime scene traces, fatal injury of high-falling and text message, there were 86 suicide, 24 accident and 95 uncertainty in the 205 cases. According to the behavior psy-chology analysis of partial mechanical injuries, there were 80 suicide, 11 accident, and 4 homicide in the 95 uncertainty cases. Conclusion The partial mechanical injuries uncertainly caused by high-falling correlate with the manner of high-falling death. According to the behavior psychology analysis of the partial mechanical injuries in high-falling death cases, the presumption of high-falling death is usually accurate.
