0:00.0 | Forensic scientists, what is the most WTF case that you ever had? |
0:04.0 | A friend of mine is a CSI and I don't know if he's posted here, but just in case he hasn't, I'll put this here. |
0:09.5 | Anchorage, Alaska, 2008. |
0:11.5 | A 27-year-old woman hasn't paid her rent in four months. |
0:15.0 | The landlord gave her a bit of a reprieve because he knew she was very poor and she was in a low-income housing. But after four months of |
0:21.3 | zero contact, enough is enough and he calls the cops to get into her place and either see her |

0:59.4 | As far as the examination could conclude, she died from an adrenal surge causing her heart to stop, |
1:04.4 | more commonly known as frightened to death, which yes, can actually happen in some rare cases. |
1:09.4 | The body was old, but no test showed any residual |
1:11.9 | illegal substances in her system. None were found in the apartment, nor was there any sign of |
1:16.7 | anyone having entered or left before the cops. The young, pretty average health woman appears |
1:21.0 | to have gotten into her shower, and then her heart stopped due to terror. As far as I know, |
1:25.4 | that's where the story ends. No substantial evidence. |
1:28.4 | When I was pretty young, I got into all of like the procedural crime shows and stuff, like |
