Case of the missing Tongue
Occasionally you hear claims that
the tongue was ripped, or eaten, or whatnot. The medical records
simply that "the tongue is missing". Vozrojdenniy doesn't give any
details on the extent, nature of the damage and doesn't state the
condition of the remaining tissues.
Tongue is a complicated
group of muscles in the human body. It is made of Intrinsic muscles
that give the tongue its shape and help change it shape. You
probably met people who can roll their tongues, bend them in a
strange way. These are intrinsic muscles. Extrinsic muscles
protrude, retract the tongue. These muscle help us to articulate
words. In older literature they are referred as the diaphragm of the
tongue.
Description "The tongues is missing" is something that no
medical student can get away with, much less an experienced doctor.
It is basically an insult to anyone who reads. As a professional
coroner he would have to state muscles involved. Biting of a tip of
the tongue in death agony is one thing, the whole tongue ripped out
is another thing. Nature of the cut should have been reported. Was
it a straight cut from a sharp object, was it a subject of predation
by animals or organisms that lived in the melting waters? We will
never know as vague autopsy description yields us no clues
whatsoever.
Below is a subjective thoughts on the autopsy
report. It seems that the report of the Dubinina complicated the
Criminal Investigation. Previous bodies showed some strange details
that were indicative of a struggle, but could be brushed off as
accidental. In the case of the last four remaining bodies a mere
accident couldn't explain the deaths of tourists. So the coroner
intentionally made the report so vague. If he had a simple
explanation like predation, he most likely would include it in the
report. Another fact that speak against the predation are morgue
pictures. Picture of Ludmila after her body was delivered, clearly
shows that there is no damage around her mouth, nose, ears or other
soft tissues. If the body was devoured by scavengers, insects or
even fish in the water these would be the first parts of the body
that would show signs of damage.
Dubinina autops looks weird
especially given the fact previous bodies had more detailed
autopsies. There is no credible explanation for this vague
statement. Although it is mentioned that the stomach contained about
100 g of coagulated blood. It is used by some as an indication that
the heart was beating and the blood was flowing when tongue was
removed from a mouth.
The cause of death is stated as hemorrhage
into right atrium of the heart, multiple fractured ribs and internal
bleeding.
