Is There Evidence for More Exotic Causes of Inflammation?
There's no way to tell which burned first, their clothes or the insides of their bodies. I can't rule out that it was an accident with the pipe, but an accident the matches seems much more probable to me. The third piece of evidence i've seen is reported that in mary reser's case, her skull was actually shrunken to the size of a teacup. This is something that would not happen in a typical fire. Requires another explanation.
