What will be the conclusion?

It is found that the 19 years old female was found in the woods and she finds lying her face down and also the lividity is present on the backside of the woman.

First of all, we will understand what is lividity. Lividity is the process in which the color of the body changes and it starts after 1-4 hours of death.

lividity occurs when the blood does not pump the blood in the body and the blood is collected to the particular area where the gravity is acting.

If the body is found face down with signs of blanching on its back, it suggests to forensic scientists that the individual had likely died on their back and been moved.

If the body color changes to red cherry then it can be predicted that the individual died from carbon mono oxide poisoning

If the body color changes to pink it can be due to cyanide poisoning.

Thus the conclusion will be that she died before 4-5 hours and she has been poisoned.
