Question I

[Jonetta]

When Oliver’s car is found in the river, Matt helps with the recovery as he’s also a trained forensic diver. He shared lots of forensic information about what happens to a body underwater. Did you learn anything? Was it interesting or information you could have done without?

[Anita]

I learned a lot, but I really didn't need to know any of it.

[Jonetta]

I have to confess, this was fascinating. Forensics is one of my interests and I’ve long wondered what happens to a body underwater. I was stunned to find it here and was grateful. Yes, I was highly interested and learned a lot.

[Melissa]

Since I work in the EMS field most of the information was already familiar to me, but it was nice that she explained it.

[Jonetta]

Did she get it right, Melissa? How gruesome is a body that’s been underwater for some time?

[Melissa]

It depends on the water temperature. I have seen some pretty bloated bodies, but there was one that looked quite normal. He was a young handsome guy who had wrecked his truck in the river and got stuck under the truck. They found him after 3 days (lots of rain and strong current) and the cold water had kept him pretty preserved. I have been lucky that most water rescues around here are quick and we don't have many fish in our rivers.

[Jonetta]

I’ll bet you have a ton of interesting stories, Melissa.

[Charlene]

I don't have any practical experience, I'm glad to say, but I do know that decomposition and creatures start almost immediately.

[Karen ♐]

I really like when there is explanation for something that I don't have any knowledge and always wondered about. I found this really interesting.
