Genialni naukowcy kontra 3 zbrodnie. Kto wygrał?

Three criminal mysteries, three incredible minds without which the murderers would have remained elusive. How do you identify a victim in a state of advanced decomposition? How do you prove that a red stain on clothing is human blood and not wood stain? In today's episode, you'll see how science entered courtrooms, sat back, and began dictating verdicts. I've saved the most interesting for last: a "clean" crime, almost a perfect one. To solve it, one of the most eminent pathologists in history nearly drowned a professional swimmer in front of investigators. ⚠️ DISCLAIMER This material is for educational, historical, and popular science purposes only.
