Marco Ross

Testimony Summary:

·  He was a forensic pathologist and chief medical examiner at the Tennessee Regional Forensic Center.

·  He brought the autopsy report of Holly’s remains. 

·  He did not write the autopsy report, nor did he do the autopsy (the doctor who did was on leave), but he was able to examine the remains.

·  They received the skull, a mandible, teeth, ribs, a shoulder blade, and a sternum fragment.

·  They also tested a piece of wood that looked like a rib and a dog’s rib.

·  A forensic odontologist matched the remains of Holly’s teeth and jaw to her dental records.

·  There was a likely gunshot entrance wound at the back right side of the skull. 

·  He states the skull had been sitting there for a while, as evidenced by brown dirt staining.

··  The bullet entrance wound was approximately 9x11 mm, but he later stated he misremembered this.

·  Several fractures across the skull were consistent with the gunshot wound. 

·  The bullet exited around the left base of the skull and went through the left side of the jaw.

·  He states that he was unable to determine the range the bullet was fired from.

·  He states, however, that these fractures would be consistent with a close-up range.

·  The bullet moved from right to left with a slight downward trajectory.

·  He states this a 32-caliber bullet has a measurement of .38 inches. He states the bullet wound in the back of the skull is approximately .36 inches. He states any bullet smaller than .36 inches could have caused the bullet hole.

·  He confirms the cause of death was the bullet wound. 

·  Her cause of death was labeled a homicide.

·  His office sent a rib for DNA testing in February of 2015, and it was determined to be Holly’s. 

·  The pathology reports his office did rely heavily on the anthropology report not done by his lab. The report his lab did said nothing of the size of the bullet hole wound.

·  He states that his assertion that the bullet wound was 9x11 mm was from the anthropology report, but the anthropology report states the bullet wound was 12.1x9.4 mm.

·  He states this wound is consistent with a 32-caliber revolver being shot at close-range from the back of the head.
