12 stage, it was not possible to determine if death occurred on the 18 or 19. Each autopsy lasted two or more hours. A few of the corpses showed burns. l) Judgment pathologist) of Robert H. Kirschner (doctor and forensic He was Assistant Chief Examining Doctor and deputy principal of Cook County, Chicago, Illinois at the moment of rendering his statement. He has done over 7,000 autopsies throughout. In the case of El Frontón, authorities must, as usual, get fingerprints of the inmates, and it would have been easier to compare them with those of the corpses, as well as odontographs, tattoos, and old scars; therefore, family help is very important. On June 20, it would have been very easy, if the necessary information had been available, to identify all the corpses. It is very important to take photographs and prepare drawings of the disaster place before removing the corpses, even to identify the cause of death. Autopsies were very professional, but there was neglect by the people in charge of the identification; even now many identifications could be possible, even without exhumation, especially if families cooperate. There are a few cases in which identification is not possible. An internal blast would leave perceptible traces on the body. m) Judgment anthropologist) of Clyde C. Snow (doctor and forensic- Since 1984 he has been called several times outside the United States, to investigate mass disappearances or executions in Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Guatemala, El Salvador, Iraq, Kurdistan, and former Yugoslavia. Many of these cases were even more difficult than El Frontón case because there was a list of prisoners and in penal records there should have been physical descriptions, fingerprints, dental evidence, etc. Somehow mummification makes identification easier, in particular through fingerprints and skin scars. Statistically, it is not possible for a doctor to have found 17 corpses among 96 presenting bullet wounds and that the other two doctors have not found any. In a building bigger than the Blue Pavilion corpses were removed and identified in two or three weeks. If he had been called to identify the corpses of El Frontón, first he would have gathered all the information on the victims and afterwards he would have taken photographs of the bodies in the places where they were found. Even seven months after the incident, it would had been possible to identify more than 90 percent of the bodies, and that even now these would be possible by gathering all the data on fingerprints and tooth prints and, in some cases by exhuming the bodies. 39. At the request of the Commission, the Court asked the State for some documents related to the case, of which the State only provided some (supra para. 18). 4 4 cf. a list delivered by the Head of the Identification Department from San Juan Bautista Penitentiary to the 2nd Permanent Instruction Court of the Navy.
