TY - JOUR PY - 1983// TI - Two bite marks on assailant. Primary link to homicide conviction JO - American journal of forensic medicine and pathology A1 - Irons, F. A1 - Steuterman, M. C. A1 - Brinkhous, W. SP - 177 EP - 180 VL - 4 IS - 2 N2 - Two distinctly different bite marks occurred on the same individual, the perpetrator of a single homicide. The bite marks were produced by different teeth in the upper arch of the decedent on two separate areas of the perpetrator's body. While either injury demonstrated the points of identity with the decedent's dental arch, the pair considered together allowed conclusive identity of the perpetrator. The bite mark evidence led to a plea of guilty to second-degree murder by the accused.
