Adult femicide victims in forensic autopsy in Taiwan: A 10-year retrospective study
2016, Forensic Science InternationalCitation Excerpt :Bruises were the most frequent external injuries documented in this study; followed by cut and stab. Although knives were commonly used in cases of both groups, blunt force trauma that includes bruise, abrasion, hematoma, and laceration were also common in victims of both groups [8]. The fracture rate of IP femicide victims noted in this study (31.6%) was higher than that in previous reports of IPV survivors [21,22].
