Early NYPD Murder Scene Photos

Some rough stuff
For a little over 2 years, I moonlighted doing forensic work for the SO. Some of those shots still haunt me, not for the faint of heart.
 
Most of them are gunshot wounds. Welcome to the good ol' USA. I've seen worse. Seniors eaten by their cats after they pass away. Families burned to death by American incendiaries in the invasion of iraq. Fire still is the number one weapon of terror.

Down on I 10 in Texas years ago I came on a truck on fire on the side of the road. Driver door was open and driver still in he seat screaming for someone to shoot him. He couldn't get out because he couldn't think to undo his seat belt. Watch someone burnto death and you'll pray it doesn't ever happen to you or someone you know!

I've never seen a gunshot fatality in Canada. Most of the accidents happen on Sunday. The day of the week. On the highway traveling home from church with the family. And it makes sense. The driver usually men. Drive to work in the city without an passengers (so the car/truck is lighter and accelerates faster). But the driver still thinks he has enough power to pass and doesn't. He hits another car dead on at 120 km/h. I grew up seeing accidents like this. Blood everywhere. The humiliation on the drivers faces. dying families. Still happens to this day.
 
Wasn't there a famous NY photographer- maybe it was Weegee that photoed crime scenes?

Yup but he didn't work for the NYPD. He did listen in on their radio chatter to locate murder sites, often reportedly leaving with shots before the cops arrived.
Joe Pesci starred in a 1992 sorta-Weegee-biopic "The Public Eye."
