Signs of suffocation?

[mariab]

No Tom, had she fainted for good, she would have gone totally limp, let loose of all grip. There are even elderly or epileptic people who faint and lose their fake teeth out of their mouth.

Lynn, the tension in the scarf's knot happened when he lifted her head to cut her throat, as she was lying on the ground on her stomach. The evidence proves this, as the knife followed the alignment of the scarf, even partly cutting the scarf too as it went along her throat.

Quote Lynn Cates:
But I wonder why the take down in the film would not work?
Problem is, Lynn, that you filmed the scene with both your back and your wife's back to the camera, so it's fairly imposible to see what you're doing. ;-)

Hello Maria.

"the tension in the scarf's knot happened when he lifted her head to cut her throat, as she was lying on the ground on her stomach"

If Liz is on her stomach, why no mud on that part of her dress?

"The evidence proves this, as the knife followed the alignment of the scarf, even partly cutting the scarf too as it went along her throat."

But the same thing can be said for my film. By grabbing the scarf's knot it tightened and the scarf itself was taut right along the cutting line.

"you filmed the scene with both your back and your wife's back to the camera"

Hope to correct that and add several observations about the scarf, position, etc. Hopefully, this can be fine tuned with you and Tom by email. I shall begin collating soon.

Cheers.

Hi all, Liz at no point would have been lying on her stomach. The mud evidenc, as Lynn mentions, rules that out. That's not to say she was lying on her side when the killer left her, as she was when Blackwell got there.

Yours truly,

Whew!

Hello Tom. Thanks. Thought there was new information of which I was unaware. (heh-heh)

Cheers.

No idea why I wrote she was lying on her stomach. (It was in the middle of the night and I hadn't slept for almost 2 days.) It's common knowledge that Stride was lying on her left side, while the stomach is located to the right!
