When you watch CSI or Law & Order on television, it seems that an autopsy tells the police a lot. Is that real science or TV fiction?

Sue is author of the book, All That Remains: A Renowned Forensic Scientist on Death, Mortality, and Solving Crimes (https://amzn.to/3lWzyJg) . Listen as Sue separates fact from fiction and explains some of the fascinating advances in forensic science.
