The garotte is in the photos, from several angles.

Not in the photos I've seen, but I have no doubt there are more photos out there. I only saw the ones linked on this thread a few pages back.

By the way, the autopsy report describes the fracture as linear and comminuted. I didn't know what comminuted meant, so I looked it up in Websters dictionary. Comminute means to reduce to minute particles : PULVERIZE.

So she was hit (or her head hit an object) with sufficient force to pulverize part of her skull. If the flashlight was the weapon used, then the blow had to have been struck by a strong individual swinging the weapon in an arc (like a baseball bat) with great force.

If that is the case -- and again, we really don't have enough facts to know for certain -- then this was a blow intended to kill.
