On 3/3/2021 Saveetha School of Law conducted a webinar on “Medico legal investigation on death”. The speaker of the day was Dr. Judi Evangeline, a practicing medico. She gave a clear picture about the role of doctors in a death case and explained the importance of the death report made by a doctor. Further she explained the relevance of a report prepared by the medical expert in death investigations. It begins with body examination and evidence collection at the scene and proceeds through history, physical examination, laboratory tests, and diagnosis in short, the broad ingredients of a doctor’s treatment of a living patient. The key goal is to provide objective evidence of cause, timing, and manner of death for adjudication by the criminal justice system. The session concluded with discussion on the importance of such reports in unnatural and unexplained deaths including homicides, suicides, unintentional injuries, drug-related deaths, and other deaths that are sudden or unexpected.
