00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:23,600
Speaker 1: Mother Knows Death starring Nicole and Jemmy and Maria qk.

2
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:23,720
Speaker 2: Hi. Everyone welcome The Mother Knows Death. Let's get started

3
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:27,400
Speaker 2: with this week's six shocking stories. So our first story

4
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:31,480
Speaker 2: today was user submitted. So our listener used to work

5
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 2: for animal control in California. She had said that one

6
00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 2: of the officers that came in was really a quote Bach,

7
00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 2: but specified it was to other people, not to animals.

8
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:45,240
Speaker 2: So we definitely know people like that, right, Yeah, for sure.

9
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 2: So one day at work, another officer had brought in

10
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 2: a dog. The dog had been in a situation where

11
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:53,880
Speaker 2: I guess its owner died and they died in the house.

12
00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 2: So the dog was eating the dead owner in the house. Yeah,

13
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 2: And we talked about that last week, right, And this

14
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 2: is what triggered this story in her mind, because we

15
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:06,640
Speaker 2: talked about last week a guy who died in the

16
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:09,600
Speaker 2: house and was eaten by his thirty cats that were

17
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,120
Speaker 2: living in the house. Yeah, so we know it's definitely

18
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 2: common that this happened. So our listener said that she

19
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 2: got the dog all situated after they brought the dog in,

20
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:20,319
Speaker 2: and then she know, you know, like left the room,

21
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 2: came back later and found this officer, you know in

22
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:26,959
Speaker 2: question the quote bag sitting on the ground and the

23
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 2: dog was licking her face all over the place. So

24
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 2: she just sat there for a minute and watched it happen,

25
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,600
Speaker 2: just because this lady was so unpleasant. And then she

26
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:40,399
Speaker 2: got great joy in telling her that the dog was

27
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:44,760
Speaker 2: taken in because it was eating decomposing flesh only hours before.

28
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 2: This so seriously disgusting. She said that the officer was horrified,

29
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 2: and she said she still thinks about it to this

30
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 2: day and laughs. It's pretty awesome story, actually. I mean,

31
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 2: like eating a decomposing body can certainly expose the dog

32
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 2: to some bacteria that it can definitely transfer to a person,

33
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:11,800
Speaker 2: especially because they have fur, and unless they gave that

34
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:14,119
Speaker 2: thing like a hardy bath, which I doubt they had

35
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 2: yet at that point, you know, it would be absorbed

36
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,640
Speaker 2: in the fur around the mouth and everything. But it's no,

37
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 2: it's probably no more of a risk than the dirty

38
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,080
Speaker 2: bacteria that live in a dog's mouth on a regular basis. Anyway,

39
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,399
Speaker 2: licking your face, it's kind of it's kind of a wash. Yeah,

40
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 2: I do think that's particularly gross in general, Like I

41
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,799
Speaker 2: see people, you know, letting their dog like their face

42
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 2: they share food with their dog. I'm like, all right, well,

43
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,079
Speaker 2: you're it's because we're it's because we're not dog people.

44
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,920
Speaker 2: Because my cat kisses me and likes me sometimes, and

45
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 2: I don't care. So it's just like whatever whatever floats

46
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 2: your boat, you know. Yeah, I can't get down with that,

47
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 2: but maybe that's just me well, because I mean it

48
00:02:57,960 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 2: is the same with the cat though, Like the cat

49
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 2: cleans their asshole with their tongue and then all of

50
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 2: a sudden they're like licking you, right, So you don't

51
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 2: know where their mouths go, and they certainly don't go

52
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,679
Speaker 2: in normal places that that humans do for the most part,

53
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,079
Speaker 2: I guess you would say, so disgusting. Are you onto

54
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 2: the next one? This one's called a sharp mind. A

55
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 2: forty four year old woman went to the hospital and

56
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 2: said she was having seizures and right lower extremity weakness

57
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 2: after she claimed she hit her head on a cabinet door. Yeah,

58
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 2: so when she got there, they did an MRI and

59
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 2: they found that she had a wound on her head

60
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 2: that corresponded to the findings of the MRI, which was

61
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 2: she had a little bit of an absess in her brain.

62
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 2: So an absess is when there's some kind of infection

63
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 2: that starts and it's this localized pocket a most of puss.

64
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 2: That's what an abscess is. And if you look at

65
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 2: that under the microscope, you'll see white blood cells that

66
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 2: are trying to fight this bacterial infection that's going on.

67
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 2: And they thought, okay, she went she went to the

68
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 2: hotp so she had she did have a history of

69
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 2: suicide attempts two years prior, but they thought, okay, this

70
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,520
Speaker 2: story sounds probable. She hit her head on a cabinet,

71
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,840
Speaker 2: she got this wound, it caused this abscess in her brain.

72
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 2: Kind of next, right, So they gave her antibiotics and

73
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,719
Speaker 2: they also gave her anti convulsionts because she was having

74
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 2: these seizures. And she went on her way and everything

75
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 2: seemed to be fine, but they wanted to follow up

76
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 2: MRI just to make sure. So she goes to get

77
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,479
Speaker 2: the next MRI. What was it about a month later

78
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 2: after her first visit. Yeah, and I'm not so this

79
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 2: is the part of the story that's a little bit.

80
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 2: That's a little I guess. They just wanted to make

81
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:47,480
Speaker 2: sure that that diagnosis was completely accurate, so they wanted

82
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 2: her to get a follow up MRI with contrast, so

83
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:53,600
Speaker 2: contrast makes it. It's when you get people have had

84
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:55,719
Speaker 2: this done before, they give you an IV, before you

85
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 2: get a test done, and they put this contrast die

86
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 2: within your body. In it, certain things light up that

87
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 2: you wouldn't normally see on a standard MRI, so that's

88
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,040
Speaker 2: I guess they wanted to really see what was going on.

89
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,919
Speaker 2: And when they decided to do that, for some reason

90
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,279
Speaker 2: they said, hold off a second, we can't do another

91
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:19,720
Speaker 2: MRI because this woman has a foreign body inside of

92
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 2: her brain. It looks like and a metallic actually, and

93
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,920
Speaker 2: for anyone that's ever gotten MRIs, do you know why

94
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,039
Speaker 2: they always ask you if you have any metal in

95
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 2: your body when you get an MRI. No, I've never

96
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:36,839
Speaker 2: really been sure about that. So the M and MRI

97
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 2: stands for magnetic because it's it's essentially a giant magnet.

98
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 2: And there's been all of these documented injuries. I think

99
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 2: we talked about one on mother No's death right when

100
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 2: we first started the podcast Familiar Even there's injuries that

101
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 2: can occur from the having any kind of magnetic things

102
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,160
Speaker 2: in a room. And in the case that we talked

103
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 2: about months ago, it was a stretcher or a gurny

104
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,760
Speaker 2: got pulled into the MRI machine. I believe that was

105
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:08,280
Speaker 2: what the cause of it was. But my husband's a firefighter,

106
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 2: you know, and he's even said that, like, yeah, you

107
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,040
Speaker 2: can't if you go in there with like your air

108
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 2: pack on or something. You have to be careful. And

109
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 2: anybody that does MRIs knows this. So they must have

110
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 2: there must be a reason that they decided to look

111
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 2: at this again, right, So instead they decided to do

112
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 2: a CT scanner an X ray because they're better to

113
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,160
Speaker 2: do because they don't have magnets and they're not going

114
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 2: to be an injury to the patient. And when they

115
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 2: did the CT and the X ray, they saw, well,

116
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 2: why don't you tell them what they saw in there?

117
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,599
Speaker 2: They found a sharp needle like object in her brain.

118
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 2: So that was kind of weird and that probably wouldn't

119
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,159
Speaker 2: have happened from her hitting her head on the cabinet, right,

120
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 2: So they decided to do surgery to figure out what

121
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 2: this was and remove this object in her brain. And

122
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,479
Speaker 2: when they pulled it out, why don't you tell them

123
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 2: what it was? A rusty needle. Yeah, it was a

124
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 2: rusty sewing needle. So when they start interviewing her and

125
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 2: figuring out the story, she finally admits that it was

126
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 2: indeed a suicide attempt, that she was trying to stick

127
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 2: this needle into her brain. Yeah, and she had a

128
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 2: history of depression, She had multiple suicide attempts, so this

129
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 2: wasn't out of the normal for her, I guess. And

130
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 2: she had been admitted to a psychiatric unit for three weeks,

131
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 2: and that's where she did admit that this was a

132
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 2: suicide attempt. At first, I was thinking, you know, with

133
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 2: her cabinet theory that before they identified it as a

134
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 2: sewing needle, I'm like, is it that far fetched if

135
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 2: she smacked her head on a cabinet, that there could

136
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 2: have been the possibility there was a nail or something

137
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 2: sticking out of it. But I guess that would be

138
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 2: kind of a stretch. Honestly though, that would be more

139
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 2: plausible than this, because if you have a blunt force

140
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 2: against something, there's force that would push the now through,

141
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 2: that could push the now through the skull. Right, But

142
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 2: how do you on your own get a sewing needle

143
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 2: and stick it through a bone or like a stone,

144
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 2: you know what I mean? I mean, I would I

145
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 2: have no idea how this would even happen. So I

146
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 2: think that the only plausible way that this happened is

147
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 2: because when you're a fetus and you're developing, your skull

148
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 2: bones are called fontanelles, and they're they have to be

149
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 2: pliable because when you're a fetus and you give birth,

150
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,719
Speaker 2: if anyone's actually seen a fetus come out of a vagina,

151
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:37,320
Speaker 2: their head kind of collapses so it could fit through

152
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 2: the birth canal, right, and that's anatomically designed to do that.

153
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 2: And then as the fetus grows and becomes older as

154
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 2: a child, those bones start to harden. So I don't

155
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 2: know if you've ever heard with an infant that they

156
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 2: have a soft spot. That's because those fontanelles had not

157
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 2: yet fused yet, so you can really touch their brain

158
00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 2: through their skin. That's why you need to be careful

159
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 2: with a newborn's head. But as time goes on over

160
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 2: the years and children grow, it needs to be kind

161
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,400
Speaker 2: of pliable because the brain grows, you know, like your

162
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 2: brain's the different size from when you came out until

163
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 2: it is now. And once the adult brain is fully formed,

164
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 2: then the skulls start to harden and then they become

165
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 2: one solid bone. Or what we call the skull, right,

166
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 2: But those little cracks where those bones met, they're called

167
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 2: sutures on the skull. And it's like those zigzaggy lines

168
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 2: you see if you look at a skull, there are

169
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 2: kind of areas that could be weakness. So if she

170
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 2: hit that right soft spot, that's how she could have

171
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:42,960
Speaker 2: got through. I mean then you couldn't even do that

172
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:47,320
Speaker 2: if you tried right like she just hit it. Yeah,

173
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:49,480
Speaker 2: I mean, I couldn't even imagine the pain of doing

174
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 2: something like that. So our next one is called super

175
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 2: gross absorbency. A twenty seven year old female went to

176
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 2: the doctor after having foul smelling discharge and a green

177
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,760
Speaker 2: for three weeks. So what would your first thought of

178
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 2: that be, Well, she was having sex. If you're a

179
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,800
Speaker 2: sexually active person, you'd be like, oh shit, I got

180
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,199
Speaker 2: I would think I got trikamonas or something like it's

181
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 2: sexually transmitted infection, because that gives off a green, foul

182
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 2: smelling discharge. Right, Yeah, I mean I guess I wouldn't.

183
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 2: I wouldn't know what to think, but you're right, Like,

184
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 2: I think everybody's first thought, which was this patient's first

185
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 2: thought too, was that she had an STI or something

186
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 2: going on from that. So she was convinced she had

187
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 2: the STI, and she had asked to have a blood

188
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 2: test to try to rule that out, thinking that would

189
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:38,199
Speaker 2: be an easy treatment for her. But of course, during

190
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 2: normal questioning, I assumed they were like, when was your

191
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 2: last period? And because she had an IUD inserted four

192
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 2: years before, that made her period pretty irregular, and she

193
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 2: couldn't remember off of the top of her head when

194
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:53,480
Speaker 2: her last period was. Yeah, I hate like, I'll go

195
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:56,560
Speaker 2: on about how bad I hate IUDs, and this is

196
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 2: just like another reason because you just don't really know

197
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,439
Speaker 2: what's going on with your body. She was having her

198
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 2: period that lasted forty eight to sixty days, so yeah,

199
00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:08,960
Speaker 2: thank you that I won't get pregnant now. But who

200
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 2: the fuck wants to have their period for forty eight

201
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:11,920
Speaker 2: to sixty days.

202
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 1: Nop.

203
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 2: That's just like a low grade bleeding. Horrible. It is

204
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 2: horrible because even if you're not like necessarily gushing the

205
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:23,439
Speaker 2: entire time, the annoyance of having to wear pads tampons

206
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:26,680
Speaker 2: every single day for that long period of time, worrying

207
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:31,880
Speaker 2: about your clothes, your sheets, everything in between, is so obnoxious. Well,

208
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:35,959
Speaker 2: I also think that this particular incident that we're talking

209
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 2: about right now is more likely to occur in that

210
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 2: situation because you don't have the standard, Like it starts

211
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 2: off kind of slow, it's heavy, and then it fades

212
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 2: off and you're kind of paying attention to like, Okay,

213
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:50,000
Speaker 2: I'm using mini pads this day, I'm using tampons this day,

214
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 2: I'm using mini pads when it weans off. So just

215
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:58,960
Speaker 2: the irregular schedule of it could make you not be

216
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:02,440
Speaker 2: paying attention to what's going on going on down there. Yeah,

217
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 2: So of course because of this, they wanted to do

218
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 2: a pelvic exam, which I guess she didn't think they'd

219
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,320
Speaker 2: want to do. But why wouldn't they do that? And

220
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 2: what did they find? They found this nasty ass embedded

221
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 2: tampon like shoved all the way up inside her vagina,

222
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:25,680
Speaker 2: next to her cervix. It was gray, pink ball of

223
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 2: cotton with a string coming off of it. So I

224
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 2: guess my question is is that she said she was

225
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 2: having the smell and the discharge for three weeks, So

226
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:36,320
Speaker 2: does that mean it was in there for three weeks

227
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 2: or does that mean can that take a while to developed? No,

228
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 2: I know it was in there for the three whole weeks.

229
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 2: But could it have been in there for four months

230
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,679
Speaker 2: and then only started be having the irritation after three

231
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 2: weeks or how would that work? Well, she probably she

232
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 2: probably kind of semi realized the last time that she

233
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 2: put it up there when they pulled it out, right,

234
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 2: So that's how they got the timeline. But what happens

235
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 2: is sometimes women will put up a tampon and not

236
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,960
Speaker 2: and forget to take it out for the late for

237
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 2: the last time they were bleeding, and if they have

238
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:18,240
Speaker 2: sex afterwards, it could jam up there so hard that

239
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 2: you would it just gets stuck up there all the

240
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 2: way in the cervix. There's kind of this area around

241
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 2: the cervix where there's like pockets where you could store,

242
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,320
Speaker 2: where you could store stuff. I guess, Oh my god,

243
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 2: So that's what happened. She had sex and it jammed

244
00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:38,200
Speaker 2: it up there. And I don't know for someone like

245
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:41,880
Speaker 2: me that's given vaginal birth three times, there's like no

246
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,280
Speaker 2: way this could happen to me because I could push

247
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 2: out a tampon without even pulling it out at this point, right,

248
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 2: you know, wait, sorry outside note, somebody asked, I think

249
00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:55,560
Speaker 2: this week what our special skill was, So is that

250
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 2: your special skill?

251
00:13:58,080 --> 00:13:58,320
Speaker 1: Yeah?

252
00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 2: Like if I really wanted to, you're someone I could

253
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 2: just lift my leg and like shoot a tampon at

254
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:07,959
Speaker 2: them across the room. Wow, that's that's my special skill.

255
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:13,880
Speaker 2: But seriously, like I just think for me personally. I

256
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 2: you see these tampons that they sell for teenagers that

257
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:19,560
Speaker 2: are like super light absorbency and they're the size of

258
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:21,720
Speaker 2: a pencil, and I'm like, yeah, that thing would fall

259
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 2: out of me in two seconds. Right. So, I mean

260
00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 2: you you don't have that problem obviously, but like this

261
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 2: is what happens after you have a bunch of kids

262
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:34,240
Speaker 2: come out of your badge. Right. So, but for this

263
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 2: woman in particular, it's that's what happened. Like it got

264
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 2: stuck up there and you wouldn't really be able to

265
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:43,080
Speaker 2: feel it, you know how. You know how when you

266
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 2: wear that ring thing, the new ring, the Nuva ring,

267
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 2: like when you put it up there, like after a while,

268
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 2: you're kind of like not aware that it's up there. Yeah,

269
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 2: Like I use that thing for eight years. You definitely

270
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 2: don't feel it. Yeah. So it's just like things could

271
00:14:57,600 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 2: be up there and you wouldn't you wouldn't feel it,

272
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 2: And then what happens is, you know, the old blood

273
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 2: is sitting there and it's just forming bacteria and having

274
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:10,040
Speaker 2: sex and having all the guys bacteria up there as well,

275
00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:13,640
Speaker 2: and it just that's what happened, and it started being

276
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 2: infectious and just that's what was causing the smell, was

277
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:22,200
Speaker 2: the bacteria growth on there. Yeah, I mean, how I'm

278
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,880
Speaker 2: so surprised when I hear stories like this that people

279
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 2: don't get toxic shock syndrome from something like this, and

280
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 2: so they did, Well, everybody doesn't get it, and it's

281
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 2: actually kind of really a rare thing. But it's one

282
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,040
Speaker 2: of those things when you start first start learning how

283
00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 2: to use tampons with the little inserts in the box,

284
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 2: that like scares the shit out of you, you know,

285
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 2: and it could, like anybody could get toxic shock syndrome,

286
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:49,239
Speaker 2: not just not just women who are menstruating, but like anybody,

287
00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 2: because all it is is a bacteria staff or a

288
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 2: strep bacteria that it's a certain bacteria that produces toxins

289
00:15:56,640 --> 00:16:00,400
Speaker 2: which can cause all of the problems. Right, So when

290
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 2: they found this tampon in her, they treated her for

291
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:07,200
Speaker 2: toxic shock syndrome just in case. They gave her antibiotics

292
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 2: just to make sure she didn't develop it, but and

293
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 2: she didn't. There was no this this happens a lot.

294
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:17,400
Speaker 2: This is actually not like that shocking. It's it's kind

295
00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 2: of frequent. I believe. When we posted this in the

296
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 2: gross room, there's actually people who are nurses in the

297
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 2: hospital who commented underneath that were just like, oh, yeah,

298
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 2: this happened to me once and we had to clear

299
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 2: the whole entire wing of the er because it smelled

300
00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:33,520
Speaker 2: so bad. But that pulled it out, will you interviewed

301
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,000
Speaker 2: Amy Locker, and she said that was the worst smell.

302
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, smelled. Yeah, we've we've definitely heard that story before.

303
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 2: So it's not it's not a complete surprise. And they

304
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,800
Speaker 2: tell you, you know, you have to be careful when you

305
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 2: use tampons. They always tell you to use the lowest absorbency,

306
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 2: Like I said, like I have to get tampons that

307
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 2: are like there's circumference of a dildo to stay up.

308
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 2: But this is total conversation with your child. Well it's well,

309
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:10,359
Speaker 2: I'm just being honest here, So yeah, I don't know,

310
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,240
Speaker 2: it's it. I think that it happens to some people

311
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:16,600
Speaker 2: sometimes and and I could see this because ever since

312
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 2: I had like a like a while ago, now almost

313
00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 2: ten years ago, I had endometrial ablation and it caused

314
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:25,439
Speaker 2: my period to be very irregular after that, and so

315
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:27,399
Speaker 2: I didn't get it for some months and then and

316
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 2: now especially like with the whole menopause thing, like I

317
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:33,520
Speaker 2: don't get it for months in a time. So when

318
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:36,360
Speaker 2: you're not regularly doing that, you could see how how

319
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:39,679
Speaker 2: you could forget to take it out because it's just

320
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,640
Speaker 2: like not on your mind. Oh, she was bleeding forty

321
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:45,480
Speaker 2: eight to sixty days, like, of course she just forgot,

322
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 2: you know, Yeah, I mean this is something I'm innocent mistake.

323
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:52,199
Speaker 2: It's an innocent mistake. I'm so paranoid about it. The

324
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:55,479
Speaker 2: thought of also like thinking of it and reaching up

325
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 2: there and not being able to feel it is so

326
00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 2: scary too. Well, you'd be to feel it if you

327
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,719
Speaker 2: stuck your finger up there and reached in there, but

328
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,000
Speaker 2: you just you just can't. You know, Normally, when a

329
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,760
Speaker 2: tampon gets full, you could kind of feel it, but

330
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,400
Speaker 2: like this, well I can. It's a kind of question though,

331
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:14,560
Speaker 2: So when you're having sex, the guy seriously doesn't feel

332
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:20,359
Speaker 2: that there's something in there too, there's there's room up there, dude,

333
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 2: Like a baby comes through that thing. It stretches. It's big,

334
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,120
Speaker 2: I know. But most of the time, most of the time,

335
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,720
Speaker 2: a penis is longer than a finger, so you would

336
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:31,679
Speaker 2: think they would feel it in some capacity. No, you're not.

337
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,040
Speaker 2: But like I'm trying to tell you, the cervix is

338
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 2: at the top of the vagina, but then on the

339
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 2: sides of the of the top of the vagina is

340
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,280
Speaker 2: where it could get stuck up in one of those

341
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:45,119
Speaker 2: little cul de sac things. It's like a little pocket it,

342
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 2: So it would it would be like to the side, guy.

343
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:51,640
Speaker 2: I mean, you hear a guy saying that they feel

344
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,560
Speaker 2: they could sometimes feel I U. D. Strings when they're

345
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,399
Speaker 2: having sex with somebody. Some don't and some do. But

346
00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:00,520
Speaker 2: that's like that's like a nylon string that's poking the

347
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:02,880
Speaker 2: tip of their penis, so of course they're gonna feel that. Yeah,

348
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,600
Speaker 2: But like the tampon's like a pillow to the side,

349
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:11,120
Speaker 2: like it probably like this feels nice. Yeah, it's so gross,

350
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:18,680
Speaker 2: all right. The next one's called Crack. The case a

351
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:20,840
Speaker 2: forty four year old guy was found dead in his

352
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 2: car parked under a bridge. So what would be normal

353
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 2: protocol in this case, when you just find somebody did

354
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,880
Speaker 2: like this, the cops are called, Oh you would call it. Yeah,

355
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 2: you would call the medical examiner or the coroner and say,

356
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 2: we have a suspicious death. And this isn't any case

357
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 2: there's I mean, listen, like the guy could have pulled

358
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:42,440
Speaker 2: over because he was having a heart attack and died,

359
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 2: but like it could be a total natural death. But

360
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:48,359
Speaker 2: you just can't ever assume that that that's autopsy worthy

361
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:51,199
Speaker 2: all the time. So typically the coroner would come to

362
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 2: the scene. Well, yeah, they would come to the scene

363
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:56,200
Speaker 2: or they would bring the body to the morgue to

364
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 2: do an autopsy. All right, So the coroner was not

365
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 2: notified about in this case, which is kind of weird.

366
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 2: And then the guy was embalmed three days later, so

367
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 2: the coroner didn't find out about this for three weeks

368
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,159
Speaker 2: and then had to do an autopsy on an embombed body.

369
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:13,159
Speaker 2: What is the difference between that and a regular body.

370
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:16,840
Speaker 2: So I've done a couple autopsies on in bomb bodies

371
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,199
Speaker 2: and it just it kind of isn't the same. So

372
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:23,879
Speaker 2: when they do embalming, they have to inject formel the

373
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,679
Speaker 2: hyde kind of liquid into the body. That preserves the

374
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:31,720
Speaker 2: body so it no longer decomposes. So normally, let's say,

375
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 2: let's just use my uncle as an example who just died.

376
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:37,880
Speaker 2: He died in the beginning of the week, and then

377
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,560
Speaker 2: we went to his funeral, what four or five days later,

378
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 2: he had a viewing and he was out in room

379
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:47,240
Speaker 2: temperature of viewing, and he looked still to be alive. Right.

380
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 2: The only way that you can do that is by

381
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 2: embalming people, because if you just put a person four

382
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 2: days later outside in room temperature, they would be green

383
00:20:56,720 --> 00:21:01,800
Speaker 2: and bloated and decomposing and smell terrible. Right, So that's

384
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,920
Speaker 2: the point of doing the embalming. But the way to

385
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 2: get the fluid into the body sometimes can cause trauma

386
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,679
Speaker 2: to the body just between getting it into the vascular system,

387
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:15,960
Speaker 2: and sometimes they use instruments to kind of stab the

388
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,920
Speaker 2: abdominal organs to just get more of that fluid into

389
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:22,719
Speaker 2: their So it gives what we would call artifact at autopsy,

390
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:24,760
Speaker 2: which means it looks like a person has all these

391
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 2: stab wounds, but they're really just from the embalming, right.

392
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:31,760
Speaker 2: So that's one aspect of it, and the other aspect

393
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:36,600
Speaker 2: is the fluid itself. Gives an artificial appearance to the

394
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:41,159
Speaker 2: tissues too, because now they're being fixed or embalmed, and

395
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 2: they don't look the same. They don't look like a

396
00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:47,399
Speaker 2: fresh heart would look. They look almost cooked, which is

397
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:50,000
Speaker 2: kind of gross, but they just give the organs more

398
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:54,159
Speaker 2: of like a gray appearance. And it's possible to do

399
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:56,879
Speaker 2: an autopsy, and you certainly can see certain things, but

400
00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:01,240
Speaker 2: when that fluid's flushing through the circular to system, it

401
00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:04,359
Speaker 2: could push out something like a pulmonary embolism, which would

402
00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:07,200
Speaker 2: be easy for us to see and determine it was

403
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,880
Speaker 2: a cause of a patient's death. So there's all these

404
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,720
Speaker 2: different things that it's not ideal, but we can do it.

405
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 2: So obviously it's not recommended to do that before it's

406
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 2: not recommended, but like let me tell you, for example,

407
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:20,719
Speaker 2: one case I did this guy that I did an

408
00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:25,640
Speaker 2: autopsy on once. He was diving in another country and

409
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:27,919
Speaker 2: he was from here. He was on vacation. He was

410
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,160
Speaker 2: diving on another country and he died and they wanted

411
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 2: to see if his cause of death was due to

412
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:36,600
Speaker 2: decompression sickness, which is something that could happen when you're

413
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,719
Speaker 2: diving if you're not doing things the proper way. So

414
00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:42,760
Speaker 2: he was all the way in a foreign country, and

415
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 2: they wanted the autopsy to be done in Philadelphia, so

416
00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 2: they had to embomb him before they sent him over

417
00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:53,359
Speaker 2: to us. There was like no way around it. But yes,

418
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:57,440
Speaker 2: in a normal situation, would you would really just advise

419
00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:02,360
Speaker 2: against that. Yeah, all right. So finally they're doing the autopsy,

420
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:06,120
Speaker 2: and then what do they see? So they take out

421
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,720
Speaker 2: his larynx, which is your your voice box. It's like

422
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:10,639
Speaker 2: if you put your hand around your throat and you

423
00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 2: feel in a male, you'll feel the thyroid cartilage, but

424
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:17,119
Speaker 2: you could feel those little like rings underneath. That's your

425
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 2: larynx and that's where your voice box is. And that's

426
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,919
Speaker 2: also where the tube that goes to your lungs is.

427
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:25,080
Speaker 2: And then behind that is the tube that goes down

428
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:27,520
Speaker 2: to your stomach. So they take this out to examine it,

429
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:33,280
Speaker 2: and they found a raw egg embedded in his windpipe.

430
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:39,960
Speaker 2: I have I haven't any questions about that. At first,

431
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 2: when I was reading it, I thought they meant like

432
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:44,679
Speaker 2: a hard boiled egg, and I'm like, that's kind of,

433
00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,160
Speaker 2: you know, a hard style to like eat a hard

434
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:50,520
Speaker 2: boiled egg hole, But then I realized it was the

435
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,720
Speaker 2: raw eggs. So I'm like, in what circumstance would you

436
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,879
Speaker 2: ever just put a whole egg in your mouth? Well

437
00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:01,480
Speaker 2: you wouldn't unless somebody put it in for you, Yeah,

438
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:03,639
Speaker 2: which is kind of like like all right, So like

439
00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,480
Speaker 2: later they figured out he was doing, you know, some

440
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:09,840
Speaker 2: some drug trafficking. He was working with drugs, And even

441
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 2: if this was a sign from a gang, it's just

442
00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:16,280
Speaker 2: kind of really unusual. It is. It's kind of like

443
00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:18,920
Speaker 2: skillful like that you can get that down with. I mean,

444
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 2: it was cracked a little bit, so it is possible

445
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:27,120
Speaker 2: that it cracked while it was going down there. They

446
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:29,880
Speaker 2: I don't they They determined that his cause of death

447
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 2: was from asphyxio. So that's what killed them, right, Yeah,

448
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:35,240
Speaker 2: so you're saying means that they didn't they didn't see

449
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:37,760
Speaker 2: any other Like he didn't get shot, and then they

450
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:39,600
Speaker 2: stuck an egg down his throat, you know what I mean?

451
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:41,640
Speaker 2: Like this was what killed them. Yeah, Like this guy

452
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 2: was alive. They took an egg and stuffed it in

453
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 2: his throat and then he died because of that. That

454
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:49,680
Speaker 2: also just seems like an absolutely horrific way to die.

455
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:54,520
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, totally one really cool thing from a scientific

456
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,080
Speaker 2: perspective that was cool about this case, and the pictures

457
00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:00,280
Speaker 2: are cool looking. Although they could tell that the egg

458
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,359
Speaker 2: was put in raw because there was still some like

459
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 2: runny oak yolk and stuff, there were portions of the

460
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,440
Speaker 2: egg that appeared to be kind of cooked on the outside.

461
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 2: And the reason for this is because if you think

462
00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 2: about it, when you put the embalming fluid inside of

463
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 2: a body, it preserves the tissues and it hardens the tissues. Well,

464
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,120
Speaker 2: the same thing would happen with an egg because that's

465
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:29,879
Speaker 2: also animal material. So it kind of gave that cooked,

466
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,800
Speaker 2: embalmed appearance on the outside of the egg, which was

467
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 2: really interesting. Wow, that really is no that I don't know.

468
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:40,400
Speaker 2: That's something I that's one of those things that you

469
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:45,520
Speaker 2: just say, guess, never think you would see on the job, right, Yeah.

470
00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:48,399
Speaker 2: I mean that's the coolest part about doing autopsy because

471
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:50,600
Speaker 2: I think even if you talk to someone that's done

472
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:53,080
Speaker 2: thousands and they've been in the field for fifty years,

473
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,359
Speaker 2: they always can just be shocked walking in. It's just

474
00:25:55,400 --> 00:26:01,320
Speaker 2: there's always something there's just always something that could be

475
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 2: a potential, you know what I mean, And it's just

476
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:06,440
Speaker 2: it's really it makes that's what makes this job so interesting.

477
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,280
Speaker 2: You just I mean, we could talk about these stories

478
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:12,080
Speaker 2: for years. They just they you know, we'll never hear

479
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:15,200
Speaker 2: this again, but there'll be something else even crazier, right, Yeah,

480
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,439
Speaker 2: all right, This next one is you don't see this

481
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,560
Speaker 2: every day. So one of our grocery members worked at

482
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:25,480
Speaker 2: an inner city hospital in Minneapolis, Minnesota. She commutes to

483
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:27,959
Speaker 2: work on a bus that goes through some rough neighborhoods

484
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 2: with some drug problems. So when she got off the

485
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 2: bus one day, she started walking and spotted something really

486
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:37,200
Speaker 2: unusual sitting on the ground next to two hypodermic needles.

487
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:42,080
Speaker 2: So what did she think this was? Before confirming you later,

488
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:48,760
Speaker 2: So she saw these hypodermic needles filled with blood, which

489
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,160
Speaker 2: was kind of weird, on the ground and saw this

490
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,200
Speaker 2: thing and was like, what is that? And she went

491
00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:55,760
Speaker 2: closer to it, and she was like, this looks like

492
00:26:55,920 --> 00:27:00,880
Speaker 2: a mammified human finger. I don't know. I guess because

493
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:02,879
Speaker 2: you work at a hospital, you would notice that. My

494
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:06,480
Speaker 2: mind would immediately go to like that's a Halloween prop

495
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:10,560
Speaker 2: or something that fell. And maybe in a normal circumstance

496
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:12,399
Speaker 2: you would see that. But if you tall, if you

497
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,800
Speaker 2: saw two syringes that were filled with red blood, and

498
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 2: you'd be like, Okay, what's happening here? Like this might

499
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:22,359
Speaker 2: be something a little bit more extra. Let me tell you,

500
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 2: if I saw two needles filled with blood, how I'd

501
00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:27,880
Speaker 2: be leaving that scene quicker than anything. There's no way

502
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,560
Speaker 2: I'd be hanging around to investigate. But she worked a

503
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:34,640
Speaker 2: thirteen hour shift at her job, didn't forget about this obviously,

504
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:36,840
Speaker 2: and then went back with gloves and picked it up

505
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,200
Speaker 2: to examine it some more and verified, in fact, it

506
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 2: was a mummified human finger. How did it get there?

507
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,159
Speaker 2: She's better than me, because I think I would have

508
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:48,600
Speaker 2: just picked it up right then and there. Ew Like,

509
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:51,120
Speaker 2: I just don't I don't care, Like I just don't

510
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,520
Speaker 2: ski if I'll just like wash my hands afterwards. It's

511
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:57,359
Speaker 2: just I just saw, like my nephew was showing me

512
00:27:57,480 --> 00:28:01,080
Speaker 2: a fox, a dead fox in his backyard the other day,

513
00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:02,760
Speaker 2: and I just picked it up off the ground. I

514
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:07,440
Speaker 2: just don't care anyway. Yeah, she went back with gloves,

515
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 2: and she took some really great pictures of this, by

516
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:13,439
Speaker 2: the way, and sure enough, it is a human finger,

517
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:18,320
Speaker 2: complete with all three bones, and it has mummified tissue

518
00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 2: around it, so it looks kind of like you would

519
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 2: see a skeleton finger, but it has a little bit

520
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:27,440
Speaker 2: of soft tissue attached to it. And the only thing

521
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:30,479
Speaker 2: I could think is, especially because we live near an

522
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,800
Speaker 2: area like that that has a lot of drugs and

523
00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 2: a lot of just people living on the street in

524
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:38,200
Speaker 2: terrible conditions, I see a lot of videos and things

525
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 2: of this of people who inject and then they all

526
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:44,640
Speaker 2: of a sudden they get gangreene somewhere like on their

527
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:48,280
Speaker 2: toes or on their fingers, And when you don't go

528
00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 2: to the hospital and take care of that, it could

529
00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:53,880
Speaker 2: become infectious and can get really bad. But the body

530
00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:58,320
Speaker 2: does something called auto amputate. And I'm suspecting that that's

531
00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:01,280
Speaker 2: what happened here, That this person had this this finger

532
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:04,480
Speaker 2: that was gangrenous and it just stayed on there and

533
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:08,880
Speaker 2: it continued to mummify, and eventually it just fell off.

534
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:11,520
Speaker 2: And it so happened to be where people were shooting

535
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 2: up over there. Yet did this happened with was that

536
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,320
Speaker 2: the story with the leg on the train tracks that

537
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 2: you were saying, it was this same like auto imputation

538
00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,480
Speaker 2: just slid right up. Now that's what remember, That was

539
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:27,800
Speaker 2: the only explanation that I had, and I believe somebody

540
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 2: told us a few weeks later that there was like

541
00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:35,080
Speaker 2: a motorcycle accident or something, and yeah, there was like

542
00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 2: something weird with it. But this happened to me. So

543
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,880
Speaker 2: one time, I when I was working in the hospital,

544
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:45,360
Speaker 2: I got a specimen from the er and it was

545
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:50,600
Speaker 2: a mummified toe, right mm hmm. And I was like,

546
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,720
Speaker 2: so think about this. If you have gangreen, you're going

547
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 2: to go to the hospital and get surgery to get

548
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 2: it cut off. So why was I getting it from

549
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:01,520
Speaker 2: the emergency room. So I so happened to run into

550
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,880
Speaker 2: somebody I knew down there the next day and I

551
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:08,560
Speaker 2: was like, Yo, what's up with the toe. She's like, dude,

552
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:11,480
Speaker 2: you don't even know. This guy came in. He had

553
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,680
Speaker 2: his foot wrapped up. It was all in gauze. I

554
00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:17,400
Speaker 2: unwrapped a gauze and his toe just rolled out on

555
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:21,480
Speaker 2: the floor. And I was like, oh my god. So

556
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 2: that would explain, like, you know, you don't even need surgery.

557
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 2: It's a cheaper way to do stuff. But yeah, it

558
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:28,760
Speaker 2: just fell on the floor. They put it in a

559
00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 2: cup and sent it up to pathology, but yeah, just

560
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:35,200
Speaker 2: just put it in a cup. And pull it up. Yeah, exactly,

561
00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:39,600
Speaker 2: all right. Our last story was also submitted by a listener.

562
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:42,280
Speaker 2: So our listener and her nineteen year old daughter were

563
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:45,840
Speaker 2: driving along the nine to sixty nine freeway in Warren, Michigan.

564
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:49,200
Speaker 2: So as they approached this overpass. You know, I'm sure

565
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 2: they're not really looking up, but all of a sudden,

566
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 2: this naked guy drops from the overpass right in front

567
00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 2: of their car. They had to swerve to avoid hitting him. Thankfully,

568
00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:01,480
Speaker 2: they weren't hurt in the process. Could you imagine that,

569
00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:05,080
Speaker 2: just like I mean, one time we were driving to

570
00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:08,160
Speaker 2: Cape Cod with momm and a frickin pit bull was

571
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:12,000
Speaker 2: in the highway for some reason, and that scared the

572
00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:14,080
Speaker 2: shit out of me. I didn't want to hit the dog.

573
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 2: I didn't want to, And then I didn't want to

574
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:19,240
Speaker 2: swerve either because I was You know, that's how these

575
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:24,320
Speaker 2: pile up horrible car accidents happened. And just imagine you're

576
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:26,960
Speaker 2: just chilling with your daughter, having a nice night, and

577
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:29,920
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, just like this, this naked human

578
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,040
Speaker 2: just falls from an overpass in front of you. Well,

579
00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 2: actually the worst part of this is it happened at

580
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,560
Speaker 2: like ten o'clock in the morning, so on a Saturday,

581
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:39,440
Speaker 2: so it's probably like, you know, I was picturing us

582
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 2: when I was that age. You know, we would be

583
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 2: just like all right, let's go to Duncan, let's go

584
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:46,720
Speaker 2: to Home Goods, and like just have a nice day,

585
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:48,800
Speaker 2: go to the craft store, get something to do. And

586
00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:50,840
Speaker 2: then we're just starting off our day and all of

587
00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:52,920
Speaker 2: a sudden, this naked guy falls out of the sky.

588
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:57,320
Speaker 2: You're like, what the fuck is happening right now? Thank

589
00:31:57,360 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 2: god they didn't get hurt. I was thinking about how

590
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:02,480
Speaker 2: scary that m to try to swerve to avoid missing

591
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:05,880
Speaker 2: a whole person that pitble that was on the highway.

592
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 2: I remember this was when we went to Boston, so

593
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:11,240
Speaker 2: there was a really weird patch of highway on the

594
00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:14,880
Speaker 2: way home where there was houses and there was just

595
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:18,280
Speaker 2: normal like chain link fences along the highway, and I

596
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:20,280
Speaker 2: definitely don't think it was high enough. So the dog

597
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:23,120
Speaker 2: was very easily able to clear the fence and then

598
00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:26,120
Speaker 2: run on the highway. But well, I remember I had

599
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 2: to pull over and breathe because I was in fight

600
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:31,240
Speaker 2: or flights so hard. I was like, how can I

601
00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:34,360
Speaker 2: drive right now? Like it was so rattling. Yeah, so

602
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 2: they said they both screamed at the top of their lungs. Obviously,

603
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:39,920
Speaker 2: I would be really messed up about this. The daughter

604
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 2: called nine one one, and then she said that she

605
00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 2: didn't know if he had been hit or what had happened,

606
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:48,400
Speaker 2: but the news link that she sent with her email

607
00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:51,760
Speaker 2: said that he had been hit by oncoming traffic going

608
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:55,080
Speaker 2: up to seventy miles an hour. That must have been horrible.

609
00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:58,680
Speaker 2: That person that hit him, is he very well could

610
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:01,800
Speaker 2: have died from impact from that fall? Yeah, you know

611
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,120
Speaker 2: what I mean. I mean, think about how high that is.

612
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 2: There's a clearance for trucks. I mean, it's pretty high

613
00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:11,440
Speaker 2: to jump from that high up. And yeah, and if

614
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:15,120
Speaker 2: he survived it, he sure exactly like he got slammed.

615
00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:18,960
Speaker 2: And I just can't even imagine. It's not fair to

616
00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:22,360
Speaker 2: the innocent people that are just driving. Even though you

617
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:24,560
Speaker 2: know it's not your fault, you still don't want to

618
00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 2: be responsible for killing a person, you know what I mean.

619
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 2: So let's say, I'm just curious if he jumped and

620
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 2: died from the fall, but then within seconds got hit

621
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:38,480
Speaker 2: by a car, would they be able to tell which

622
00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:43,440
Speaker 2: one killed him. I don't really, I don't know, because

623
00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 2: if he I would say probably not, because even if

624
00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:50,880
Speaker 2: he fell and he died really as a result of that,

625
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:54,440
Speaker 2: let's say he had the traumatic brain injury, if he

626
00:33:54,480 --> 00:34:00,200
Speaker 2: got hit two seconds later, just I don't really know

627
00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:02,880
Speaker 2: how they would because you would still see the bleeding

628
00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:07,280
Speaker 2: on the wounds, and how could you determine which one

629
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:10,840
Speaker 2: was from the fall versus getting hit at seventy miles

630
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:13,360
Speaker 2: an hour by multiple cars in a row and smeared

631
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:16,799
Speaker 2: across the highway. I'm just not sure unless they had

632
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:19,759
Speaker 2: some kind of surveillance film that he fell and they

633
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:22,480
Speaker 2: saw him like get up halfway and then he got hit.

634
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:27,000
Speaker 2: But I mean, at that point does it matter? No,

635
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:32,040
Speaker 2: I was just curious. Yeah, I would say no, probably. Well,
