About event
About this lecture:
Cases in which insects on corpses became important. And why are the animals actually at so many crime scenes?
General:
Criminal biologist DR. MARK BENECKE devotes himself, in a bizarre and sometimes disgusting way, to exciting questions that sometimes one would rather not have answered: Why, for example, are the fingernails of the bloated man's corpse so long and what type of maggot is crawling out of the corner of his mouth? So death is not BENECKE's job, but life after death. If the maggots expose the murderer, he's done everything right... Follow him into a shocking and fascinating world. BENECKE's analysis of various insects found on corpses has helped put an end to countless criminals around the world. However, the viewer's stomach can easily turn when looking at some of the photos. Because what is shown is not the usual images, but rather images of severely disfigured corpses. The really interesting questions can only be clarified through detailed close-ups.
The Cologne criminal biologist was trained by the FBI and operates internationally. BENECKE has set up special laboratories in Colombia, Vietnam and the Philippines. Numerous radio and TV appearances testify to the public's great interest in his work.
