The use of Some Forensic Medical Insects to Reveal the Causes of Death Resulting from Sexual Harassment

Abstract

The study was conducted in Al-Nahrain sub-district of Al-Dhuluiya district, south of Salah Al-Din Governorate, for the period from 2021/10/7 to 2022/4/12. Two types of insects were used during the study, the larvae of the green metal fly Chrysomya albiceps and Leather beetle larvae Dermestes maculactus To carry out the experiment by feeding these larvae on minced sheep meat ovis aries supplemented with human semen simulating sexual harassment of three volunteers separately by three replications and determining the duration of human semen DNA in larval tissues for different periods, The presence of DNA of human semen was detected in the extract of the bodies of insect larvae fed on the treated sheep Ovis aries with a volume of 2 ml of human semen for 24 hours. The experiment simulates the cause of death resulting from sexual harassment in four periods of time (1,5,10,15) days, and the presence of DNA of human semen in the larval tissues was proven in all periods at a rate of 100% using the initiator (rs 6259).
