Forensic presentation
Group Role
The role I played in my forensics group was the physiology matter of it. Trying to figure out why certain type of people commit certain crimes, what type of people commit crimes, and how to prevent people from committing crimes. What i did was try to figure out why people confessed to crimes they did not commit or why they would accuse people who had nothing to do with the crimes as well.

Case File (example, HTH-12):
HTH-8
I. Cause of Death
II. Mechanism of Death
III. Manner of Death
IV. In 1-2 paragraphs, describe your overall opinion using evidence about how the individual in your case file died.
I feel like the evidence that is given is enough to show how the person died, as long as you know the terminology and/or have access to the definitions of the words used.
Also if the guy had access the marijuana and the drug paraphernalia to use it but choose not to it had to be a natural death. The decedent also had stenosis so that was what we think was the main cause on his death.
V. References - share your vocabulary list with appropriate links with me
