Definition of Ecchymosis

Ecchymosis: The skin discoloration caused by the escape of blood into the tissues from ruptured blood vessels.

There are five needle punctures with ecchymosis associated.  Wouldn't that indicate she was alive when they occurred?  Capillary leakage causing bruising would require circulation.
