The Prosecutors
309. The West Memphis 3 Part 10 -- The Autopsies

Michael, much like Stevie, also had his hands bound to his ankles, but instead of white shoelaces, they were done with black shoelaces. Now, a subsequent autopsy of Michael's head showed that he had multifocal extensive subgaleal contusions and edema. So in other words, also bleeding and swelling of the head.

There were also multiple skull fractures, just like Stevie suffered as well, which are described as follows. And this is straight from the autopsy report. Situated on the right posterior frontal skull bone was a one and one fourth semi lunar fracture. Situated immediately below this fracture was a similar semi lunar circular fracture measuring two inches.

Below this on the lateral aspect was a one inch fracture. Extending over the temporal scalp were two contiguous fractures. The most superior one measured one and three quarters inch and the intersecting semi lunar inferior one

measured one inch in length situated over the midline of the periatal scalp were three semilunar fractures one of which became contiguous with the second with an overall dimension of two inches Inferior to this fracture was a similar semi-lunar fracture measuring one and three quarters inch.

The fracture involved the right anterior cranial fossa and a three inch fracture extended across the right posterior cranial fossa. The brain was edematous and showed subarachnoid hemorrhage involving the right cerebral hemisphere. There were fractures, contusions involving the right posterior cerebellar hemispheres.

Now, that was a lot, because I think what you can take from this is there were a lot of fractures all over his head, measuring...

about the same size that's very important somewhere between one and two inches fractures obviously if you hit hard enough to fracture something there can be spread so what this may indicate is the same device is causing all of these fractures leading them to be very similar in size The other thing you kept hearing me say was the semi-lunar sphere. In other words, something that was curved.

This is why I think people think something like a hammer, right? A hammer is round, but if you're hitting it, it's usually at an angle. You can see how that may leave like a half circle, half lunar sort of indention. In other words, it sounds like what Michael went through was a severe repeated beating with everything. an object on his head in an absolutely horrendous fashion.

And he was alive during this because of all of the bleeding and the hemorrhaging and the swelling. And that was incredibly hard to read, not just because of the medical terminology, but because each of those fractures was the raising of an object that came back down onto his head repeatedly, repeatedly, repeatedly.

And the reason it was probably repeated is that he was either unable to get away, maybe he was bound by that point, or he was in a posture that he was unable to protect his head. Now, this is also similar to what the autopsy found for Stevie, but there was no sign of rape for Michael.
