Expert Georgy Vladimirovich Gantz (26.XII.1930-6.XI.1978), who screamed in an inhuman voice when he saw Slobodin's or Thibault's skull with a crack, spent the last months of his life in a mental hospital, was depressed. When he was released from the hospital to go home for the 1917 year Revolution holidays, this 47-year-old man hanged himself at home with a rope, on a gas pipe in the kitchen.

It appears that the poor devil was chased by other devils, in his mind. Since I am at a disadvantage here, I assume that he was trying to do something good by helping  when the hikers were found. I am not inclined to believe their tragedy was a cause of his. That is too much theater for me, I think.

It would seem to be emotive language used to draw the reader in by the author.

There is no need to say "screamed in an inhuman voice when he saw Slobodin's or Thibault's skull with a crack".

It is not a thing when doing an autopsy you report the findings . It is artistic licence. The crack in the skull is not very large and at the moment of time of discovery, it could have been in transit of the bodies for all those that are doing the autopsy. An experienced person just records what is found , no one screams , there is no need to to scream or add the context of inhuman voice to try and validate the injury found. It is sensational journalism, nothing else.

Yes, over here we call that pulp fiction.

Sheet 353: On the whole, the length of the crack in the area of the base of the skull is 17 cm.

What then you mean as "very large"?

Sorryy my choice of words may be inadequate. To say, screamed with an inhuman voice is to entice the reader for drama( I know this is not you )  . Slobodins crack is just that, Thibaults is a depressed fracture .  Is it a fact that someone gave a scream , a scream in a inhumane voice , over skull injuries or any other kind of injuries for that matter when doing an autopsy?. So the skull is not squashed, there are no bullet holes or axes sticking out of the skulls or bodies . It is an autopsy, they don't know the full story of the bodies , why scream?
