Surgeon’s opinion on wound deaths and public inquiry
Dr Welch, veteran surgeon and instructor, argues in favor of using battlefield injury mechanisms to explain deaths and supports a thorough public inquiry into the murder case. He notes internal hemorrhage from neck wounds as a primary cause, warns against reliance on external bleeding, and urges authorities to pursue a complete investigation for public interest. He bases views on military and colonial service, plus newspaper reports rather than direct examination.
