Oh, I get that.
I got punched in the face and even though my nose was broken, the bruising didn't show for days.
What I was talking about in the car accident, was a weird sort of light the doctor passed over my skin to look for already appearing discoloration. They were looking for trauma.
I didn't see discoloration until the light was shown on my skin. It just was strange. About three days later I was B&B all over.
My point was that you can see evidence of discoloration before it is visible to the eye. However, it is not likely the funeral director would have such a device, the medical examiner might.
Wait, wasn't there an autopsy performed?
Did Martin's hands have powder burns? Like he was struggling for the gun?

I’ll make this discussion short and sweet:
The media has no blinking business interviewing this funeral director for any kind of real information. As though, when the body was at the funeral home, this director thought this particular boy were any special person and, so, really has any clear memory of his condition— just knowing that, some day, there would be all this publicity about this boy. Right??

The whole thing SMELLS to high heaven. Journalism is a thing of the past.

Maybe infrared light? I know in photography, the infrared looks deeper into the skin layers. Surface skin looks quite normal but with infrared photography, the skin looks soft and not quite as wrinkled or damaged at all.

I like infrared photography when I need a portrait made! And, just think - drivers’ licenses would be a dream come true!
