Maggots reveal the time of dead!

I was reading this book called Gut Eating Bugs by Danielle Denega and how they help tell time of a dead body and i saw this case of a family that died in a cabin. By reading the story i saw that bugs are helpful not just yucky.

A family was found dead in a cabin they used bugs to see how long they were dead
the stepfather said they were dead for two weeks but the forensic scientist knew they were dead for longer than two weeks. He looked too see if there we any maggots but he didn't find any maggots. He realized it was to cold for the maggots to be on their skin so he looked in their hair, the maggots were visible to the naked eye.

If the Perry's were dead longer than two weeks the scientist would see open cacoons from where the flies came out of. But he didn't see any cacoons so he started looking more closely and fund cacoons on their hair.

The jury at the stepfhathers trial fund that he killed the perry's for insurance money. I thought this story was really good so i just wanted to share it.

IS THAT BIG FOOT?

me and a dozen of my cousins
had a snowball fight
on top of my house with Lawson
when Big Foot came from my right
so we quickly threw snow balls at him
but it wasn't Big Foot it was my uncle
wearing a big coat on him
so my uncle chased us with his moncle
so we went inside and drank some hot coco and played ps3.

defintion of moncle-is a cane
