Determining abortion post-mortem
When: Present Day - 2000s
Where: Small Louisianian Town - rural area, suburb of Baton Rouge
Googling helped me find an excellent pathology site, Ed the Pathology guy. There are pages and pages and I have the main aspect of the autopsy down. However, I do need to know :
1) How would a medical examiner determine if a young woman had an abortion? I have a corpse - and he needs to determine that she had an abortion, but I have no idea how they would do that.
2) If I decide to flashback and have my victim in the abortion clinic - what is the manner during a visit like that? How does the doctor interact with the patient? What are concerns with the health of the patient?
Thank you!
