Prolongement Le corps empoisonné et le médecin légiste

The forensic doctor is obliged to consider the reality of the evidence. He or she must first ask if the poisoning was accidental. If it does not appear to be so, there needs to be evidence that a third party has been involved. In this way, the key period of diagnosis begins with suspicion, proceeds with evidence, often in the form of biological samples, and finishes with sanctions.
