This individual has self-inflicted incised wounds on the neck, in the antecubital fossae, and on the flexor aspects of the forearms, as well as on the wrists. Although the discovery of a body with multiple sharp force injuries can be alarming, the location/distribution of injuries is important in the differentiation between suicidal and homicidal injuries.
