A 41-year-old man was found by his wife in an atypical hanging situation in their apartment. As there was a known previous psychiatric illness and a history of suicide attempts, the investigative authorities assumed this case was a suicide. However, the autopsy revealed numerous findings that are unusual for a suicidal atypical hanging, including numerous cuts on the face, the arms and the penis. According to his wife, the deceased suffered from Asperger's syndrome with auto-aggressive behavior. He had allegedly injured himself with household scissors in the days before his death and had hit himself numerous times in the face the night before his death. His wife also revealed that she would injure him with scissors at his request. Even though the observed injury pattern in this case contradicted a self-infliction, the information given by the wife about the chronology of the occurrence of injuries could be reconciled with the findings of the immunohistochemical estimation of wound age. The circumstances that led to the hanging remained unresolved.

一名 41 岁的男子被他的妻子发现在他们公寓的非典型上吊状态。由于此前已知患有精神疾病并有自杀未遂的历史，调查当局假定此案为自杀。然而，尸检揭示了许多对于自杀性非典型上吊而言不寻常的发现，包括面部、手臂和阴茎上的许多伤口。据他的妻子说，死者患有阿斯伯格综合症，具有自我攻击行为。据称，他在去世前几天曾用家用剪刀伤过自己，并在他去世的前一天晚上多次击中自己的脸。他的妻子还透露，她会应他的要求用剪刀伤害他。尽管在这种情况下观察到的伤害模式与自我伤害相矛盾，妻子提供的关于受伤发生的时间顺序的信息可以与免疫组织化学对伤口年龄的估计结果相一致。导致绞刑的情况仍未解决。
