Yes, the body would have been covered with blood along with the person who sawed his head off. The pressure in the jugular vein and the carotid artery would cause the blood to spurt everywhere. I work with small animals in research and even tho the animals are anesthetized, if one of those vessels are ruptured the blood sprays all over...........even with a rat that doesn't weigh one pound. You can only imagine how bloody the scene would be involving a human with several quarts of blood in the body. It would be a like a geyser. SOrry for the grossness but it's the facts. If there was no blood present after his head was cut off then he couldn't have been alive. He would have been dead long enough for the blood to clot in his bloodvessels. Just remember the OJ Simpson murders which involved something similar............the crime scene was a bloody mess. You are correct on so many issues. Most bodies do convulse if the death is quick and traumatic like was the case with Berg. The nervous system is shocked and can't shut down fast enough. Too bad we don't have a MD in our midst to give a more expert opinion................Is there a pathologist in the house???
