Abstract

Authors report on two cases of homicide and another case of suicide, all committed with captive-bolt livestock-stunners. The investigation of skull caps revealed roundish holes at the entry sites which were beveled-out in a paraboloid-like manner on the inner aspect. These defects were reproducible in test shots with various strengths of ammunition and different materials as targets.
