About this listen

This week on The Final Touch, we go step-by-step through a standard forensic autopsy — from the first photograph to the final stitch. We break down the entire process: external exam, internal exam, toxicology, organ study, reconstruction, and how long each phase really takes.

You’ll also learn how autopsies change when a body is severely decomposed, how pathologists work with anthropologists and entomologists, and the rare situations where a traditional autopsy just isn’t possible.

Respectful, honest, and packed with insider knowledge: if you’ve ever wondered what happens behind the door of the autopsy suite, this episode pulls back the curtain. Perfect for funeral professionals, death investigators, true-crime listeners, and anyone who values transparency in death care.
