Forensic pathology is like being a detective for dead bodies. When someone dies, the forensic pathologist (like a doctor for dead bodies) takes a close look at the body to figure out how the person died. They look for clues or evidence that can help solve the mystery, like scratches, bruises or internal injuries.
They also use special tools like microscopes or machines to help them study the body, and take samples like blood or tissue to test for things like drugs or toxins.
Once the forensic pathologist has gathered all the information, they write a report with their findings that can be used in a court case or investigation.
It's important to know how someone died, not only for justice, but also for medical research to help prevent similar deaths from happening in the future.
