Create a Policy: NO to cremation of remains of Medico-Legal Cases


Create a Policy: NO to cremation of remains of Medico-Legal Cases
The Issue
(1) Bones Never Lie, but forensic experts/investigators do.
In a country like the Philippines where forensic findings and interpretations are negotiated, families of victims who do not have the power to negotiate, will be always in the losing end. Justice is an elusive dream to them. Preserving the skeletal remains and making it available for analysis by other experts will give them a better chance to achieve justice.
(2) Forensic Science evolves.
The findings today may not be the findings tomorrow, thus it is very important that forensic evidence, especially skeletal remains should be preserved.
