2. Identify 3 items of potential evidence, other than the body itself, and explain how each item may help with determining cause of death, manner of death, positive ID of the decedent, and/or locating the legal next-of-kin.
3. Describe and explain what information or records you will need, how the information or records will assist with determining cause of death, manner of death, positively identifying the decedent, and locating the legal next-of-kin.
