I'm hoping to get some help from the forum community. Can an autopsy tell if someone was suffocated? I'm asking because I've heard that there are certain tests that can be done to determine a cause of death, and I'm wondering if suffocation would be one of them. If so, what kinds of tests would be used? Does the autopsy have to be done immediately after the death to detect suffocation, or can the tests still be done after a certain amount of time? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
