A bit off topic, I know, but the BASICs group I was with had a case a few
years back. Called to a hanging. Patient hanging in stair well. About to
pull the patient in/ cut him down when the police said to stop as it was a
crime scene and the body/ patient was not to be moved until their forensic
bods etc. While this was being debated the rope gave way, rendering the
debate academic. Sorry, I don't know what the coroner said.
