Saw an episode of CSI the other week where a man was bludgeoned to death, and according to the improbably glossy-haired and manicured pathologist, the
only way of determining the weapon used was to remove the head, boil
it for several hours until all the flesh fell off, and then make a latex impression of the holes in the skull.
Now, I have absolute faith in the factual integrity of anything Jerry Bruckheimer produces, but surely that can't be right?
Surely hundreds of people must get their heads bashed in each year. Do they all have their heads casseroled?
What do relatives say when they come to claim the body and are presented with a decapitated corpse and a comedy 'Alas, poor Yorick' skull?
And don't they have open casket funerals in the US?
Can anyone enlighten me?
