Morticians Talk- Victims of Crime: Emmett Till

As morticians we get asked about the condition of crime victims bodies...
"Are they viewable?"
"How would we handle this case?"
"What would the body look like?"

Kari the Mortician and Ryan & Brian from Undertaking the Podcast will answer those questions and many more. Each episode several embalmers/morticians will talk about criminal cases of murder and unexplained deaths and how they would handle the deceased victims from those cases.

In this episode, Kari, Ryan & Brian will discuss the case of the Emmett Till murder. This story was a horrific moment in the history of our country but it became a pivotal point in the racial driven crimes in the country as well. Emmett Till should be a name every American knows! Many people have looked at the criminal aspect of the case and the murderers, but we will discuss caring for the victim and the sad task that laid before the funeral directors who cared for him.

Warning things may be discussed that are disturbing to some people. We do not show photos from the case but many are available if you google the victim's name.
