:24:01
Yeah, well,
I'll make that about a 100-to-1 shot.

:24:04
- Hi. What time is it?
- I got a quarter to.

:24:09
Well, let's get to it.
It's not gonna go away.

:24:13
This is Dr. Jendrick
dictating autopsy number 3407...

:24:16
tentatively identified
as Avakian... A-V-A-K-l-A-N...

:24:20
21373 at 11:45 a.m.
:24:22
The body is that of a white man
appearing approximately the stated age.

:24:25
- We were able to contact relatives pretty fast.
- Well nourished and developed.

:24:28
Not a thing unusual about most of them.
On their way home from work or someplace.

:24:33
Most of them lived in the neighborhood.
I had the personal effects...

:24:37
arranged here in case you want to
match them with a victim, if you want.

:24:41
- It's the usual things, for the most part.
- Had a man here...

:24:43
obviously wasn't
on his way to mass.

:24:45
- External ears are not remarkable.
- We had oneJohn Doe.

:24:48
He's kind of interesting.
For instance...

:24:50
all he had on him
was this: $850 cash.

:24:54
- No wallet. No I.D. No anything.
- Upper and lower dentures, comma.

:24:58
That's not all that he was carrying
that's interesting. Let me show you something.

:25:02
The external thorax is symmetrical,
comma, and there are two wounds...

:25:05
in the anterior thorax, comma,
the larger measuring four by three centimeters...

:25:09
and located three centimeters
below the midportion of the right clavicle.

:25:12
Look at those tracks, right?
He used the tattoo to try and hide them.

:25:15
- Get a close-up, Frank.
- This is beginning to turn my stomach.

:25:19
I'm gonna go to the hospital
and relieve Collins.

:25:21
- All right.
- Looks to have been a user for some time.

:25:25
He also shot up
between the toes.

:25:28
Their knowledge of anatomy
always amazes me.

:25:31
The remainder of the thorax is not remarkable,
period. The external abdomen is...

:25:36
- Did he have any alcohol?
- We don't know yet.

:25:39
Toxicology will be finished
this afternoon.

:25:42
I can make a guess, though,
that the Chinese kid was high on reds.

:25:45
All the superficial signs
are there.

:25:49
- Anybody relieve Collins?
- Yeah. Larrimore just did.

:25:52
And there are
no deformities or masses noted, period.

:25:54
Postmortem rigidity is trace in the extremities
but well developed in thejaw.

:25:58
Period. Postmortem lividity is trace over
the dorsal aspect of the body, period.
