Abstract
Dr. Wecht's review of the reports of James Wentzel, forensic photographer, and Dr. Owen Lovejoy, anthropologist. He addresses each finding of Wentzel's report- namely Eberling's scar, blood on Sam's wristwatch, the source of the "blood trail" in the Sheppard house, and the "weapon" imprint on the pillow. Wecht disagrees with the methodology of Lovejoy's attempt to recreate Marilyn's head wounds. Consequently, he also disagrees with the conclusion Lovejoy draws from the experiments.
