Abstract |
"Suicide notes" are the notes, where the victim has documented the intention to terminate one's own life. The victim generally writes them on a paper, notebook, wall, or mirror by means of pen or marker. However, suicide notes written on one's own body are very rare, and suicide note engraved by some metallic objects over body has not yet reported. We present two cases where the victim had used some metallic objects to write a message on the body. These may be termed "engraved suicide notes." We believe these to be the first reported cases where a metallic object was used for engraving the last notes on the body before committing suicide. Language: en |
