Abstract

The identification of individuals is a critically important aspect of the forensic examination process, as errorsin the identification process can have fatal consequences in the legal proceedings. The identification of a living patientcan be carried out through various methods, including fingerprint identification, visual recognition, documentation,accessories, dental records, serological examinations, and biomolecular analysis. Presented is a case study of a maleindividual who died as a result of a motor vehicle accident involving a bus, which resulted in head and chest trauma,leading to the victim's immediate demise at the scene. No identifying marks were found on the victim, but the victimhad a tattoo on the left chest. Identification and external examinations were conducted by a team of doctors andINAFIS personnel, synchronized with the information provided by the victim's family. Subsequently, an analysis wasperformed, correlating with a review of the literature based on scientific publications. The final result was thesuccessful identification of the deceased individual, thus concluding that tattoos can be used as one of the methods ofidentification for individuals or unidentified bodies, supported by other methods such as family data and other uniqueindividual characteristics. However, the use of tattoos needs to be handled with caution due to the risk of infection,allergies, or the transmission of infections through poorly executed and unclean tattoo procedures.

Abstract

Antropologi forensik dapat dikatakan sebagai disiplin pelengkap untuk patologi forensik dalam pemeriksaan sisa tulang. Dalam melakukan analisis trauma pada tulang harus mampu membedakan efek modifikasi yang disebabkan oleh manusia, seperti medis dan kriminal dengan modifikasi kerena faktor lingkungan dan alamiah yang dikaitkan dengan hewan maupun pembusukan. Meskipun tidak bisa mencerminkan semua luka yang diterima pada setiap kulit, analisis antropologi sisa kerangka berpotensi memberikan banyak informasi tentang peristiwa traumatis. Trauma benda tumpul merupakan jenis cedera yang paling sering ditemui dan kepala adalah lokasi yang paling umum, terutama pada kasus pembunuhan. Oleh karena itu, sangat penting untuk melakukan analisis menyeluruh terhadap cedera yang diakibatkan benda tumpul. Penelitian ini mengadopsi metode studi pustaka yang merupakan sebuah pendekatan dalam penelitian dengan menggunakan sumber informasi dari literatur atau dokumen tertulis sebagai basis untuk menyusun kerangka pemikiran dan data penelitian. Hasil dari penelitian ini ialah fraktur butterfly merupakan trauma benda tumpul pada tulang panjang yang paling khas terlihat, sedangkan trauma oleh benda tumpul pada kranium dapat membentuk pola retakan yang berpusat (concentric fractures) serta memancar (radiating fractures). Bagian sisi pada trauma juga dapat memberi gambaran terkait peristiwa traumatis yang terjadi, seperti perkiraan arah serangan yang diterima korban. Selain itu, penilaian waktu cedera menjadi tantangan dalam analisis investigasi antropologi forensic, dimana hal ini dibedakan atas trauma antemortem, perimortem serta postmortem. Perlu diingat bahwa setiap kasus dapat berbeda karena terdapat pengaruh faktor instrinsik dan ekstrinsik. Perbedaan ini mungkin tidak selalu terlihat pada setiap individu.

Abstract

Nasal morphology is one of the most crucial anthropometric characteristics of the human face. Furthermore, the nose is a pivotal feature in constructing a biological profile. In this cross-sectional study, we examined the nasal morphology of 103 Malaysian and 109 Indonesians, totaling 212 individuals from both groups. A comprehensive analysis involved the measurement of 12 nasal morphological features. The statistical tool employed for the analysis was a t-test, which revealed significant differences in various parameters between Malaysians and Indonesians (p<0.05). These findings demonstrate the statistical importance of nasal morphology in discerning racial and ethnic differences. This research suggests that nose measurements could be instrumental in resolving identity mysteries, making them valuable for forensic examination.

Abstract

Peningkatan kualitas resin komposit dari segi estetika dapat mempersulit ahli odontologi forensik untuk mengidentifikasi jenazah. Komposisi resin komposit yang ada membuat restorasi gigi terlihat alami karena sifat translusensi, fluoresensi, opalesensi, dan adaptasi margin yang baik. Selain itu, pada bencana massal, identifikasi korban yang dilakukan di lokasi yang tidak memiliki akses air dan listrik, akan menghambat proses pemeriksaan visual, terutama karena adanya cairan pembusukan dan darah pada rongga mulut mayat dan adanya kondisi rigor mortis (kesulitan membuka mulut jenazah). Review ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis metode yang dapat digunakan untuk mendeteksi restorasi resin komposit pada jenazah manusia dan implikasinya dalam odontologi forensik. Ada berbagai teknik untuk mengidentifikasi restorasi komposit dalam pemeriksaan forensik. Perbandingan radiografi gigi ante-mortem dan post-mortem adalah teknik yang paling umum digunakan untuk membedakan tambalan resin komposit dari struktur gigi asli (email dan dentin), tetapi tidak dianjurkan untuk mendeteksi restorasi kecil. Namun, fluorescence-aided identification technique (FIT) menunjukkan akurasi yang lebih tinggi dalam hal ini karena perbedaan intensitas fluoresensi antara restorasi dan struktur gigi. Metode optik lainnya seperti FOTI (fiber optic trans-illumination) dan DiFOTI (digital fiber optic trans-ilumination) dianggap sebagai alternatif tetapi FIT (fluorescence-aided identification technique) tetap lebih unggul dibandingkan teknik ini. Teknik pewarnaan juga menjadi pilihan untuk identifikasi tambalan komposit jika fluoresensi tidak dapat dibedakan. Investigasi lebih lanjut diperlukan untuk menemukan teknik terbaik atau kombinasi teknik untuk menghindari kesalahan dokumentasi dalam pemeriksaan gigi forensik.

Abstract

The fetal death rate is still very high worldwide. In the field of forensics, it is important to know how to diagnose and estimate the time of fetal death. This literature review summarizes forensic evidence regarding fetal death to assess methods that can be used to estimate the time of fetal death. A search was conducted in three journal databases with the keywords (“intrauterine fetal death” or “IUFD” or stillbirth) and (maceration or autopsy or histopathology or macroscopic or microscopy or radiology or ultrasonography or USG), which were then further selected according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. The results of various studies show that ultrasound examination, by observing the last documented fetal viability and the date when the fetus was first diagnosed as deceased, macroscopic examination with reference to the maceration process, and microscopic examination of histological specimens with hematoxylin and eosin staining can be performed to estimate the time of fetal death. Among the various methods, many researchers consider microscopic examination of histological specimens to be the most reliable parameter, but bias may occur in some cases, such as in hydrops fetalis, local effusion, and sepsis.

Abstract

Background: Physical examination of victims of sexual violence is required for the preparation of a visum et repertum as evidence in trial. This review aims to discuss the role of Visum et Repertum and clinical examination of victims who have experienced sexual violence. Method: The literature search was carried out through an electronic search engine with keywords related to the purpose of the review. Discussion: Visum et Repertum is one of the pieces of evidence to reveal the incidence of sexual violence experienced by the victim. In handling cases of sexual violence, a doctor must understand his role as a medical professional to help disclose cases. Physicians must carry out the necessary clinical examinations to be able to interpret their findings into the Visum et Repertum requested by the police. Also, a physician has a role to help the patient's recovery by providing treatment so that the victim can recover from the trauma experienced by the victim due to sexual violence. Understanding the role of physicians in handling cases of sexual violence can help many parties to reveal cases of sexual violence and reduce the burden on sexual violence victims.

Abstract

In the investigation process, identifying spots that are suspected to be blood is very important to support the investigation. Blood identification results can be used as a guide to determine the identity of the victim, perpetrator and even the identity of the missing person. Therefore, the blood group identification method used is the elution-absorption test. This test is used to examine evidence in the form of plastic bags, plumbing keys, machetes and their sheaths in cases with different victims. The results of the examination showed that the evidence in the form of plastic bags and plumbing keys had blood type A and the machete and its scabbard had blood type O. The results obtained were in accordance with the victim's blood type.

Abstract

The advancements in modern medicine and current medical technology have extended life expectancy and altered the natural norms of death. However, dilemmas can arise in cases where patients show no positive response or significant improvement in their condition, thus rendering treatment deemed futile. One solution is to discontinue life-sustaining therapy, a decision made by the physician or with the consent of the patients and their families. Such circumstances can increase moral, ethical, and legal burdens. Hence, this research is conducted to reaffirm the rights of patients and their families and provide more detailed legal guidance to responsible physicians. This is a literature review. References used are literature from journal articles published at national and international levels, spanning publications in English and Indonesian. In clinical practice, considerations in decision-making or discontinuation of life-sustaining therapy must be accompanied by multidisciplinary collaboration among several doctors, patients, and patient families. The ethics involved in discontinuing life sustaining therapy are highly complex, thus requiring extensive deliberation in assessing medical rationale accurately and the applicable laws in a region or country. Effectively navigating the complexities surrounding the initiation or cessation of life sustaining interventions requires multidisciplinary collaboration involving healthcare professionals, patients, and their families. Furthermore, a profound understanding of medical and ethical aspects is essential to mitigate potential conflicts and legal ramifications.

Abstract

Airsoft guns and air guns are replica weapons resembling real firearms that use the force of a spring or air to fire bullets; these weapons are often considered toys and can cause fatal injury if not used properly. This study aims to highlight the forensic implications of deaths caused by airsoft guns and air guns. A systematic review was conducted by the PRISMA guidelines. Study searches were conducted on PubMed, ScienceDirect, Scopus, and Wiley databases in February 2024 to collect all published case reports. The study search and selection process resulted in 15 articles that met the inclusion criteria for qualitative synthesis. Case reports were published from 1972 to 2023 and reported from 9 countries. Victims ranged in age from 11 months to 73 years; 10 of the 15 victims were male. All deaths were caused by air gun shooting; most used a bullet size of 5.5 mm. The most common mode of death was accidental death, caused by brain injury and cardiac tamponade. In conclusion, identifying the weapon's characteristics and the injury's dynamics are essential to determine the cause of death. The most common causes are brain injury and hemorrhagic shock resulting from cardiac tamponade.
