For what it's worth, my forensic pathologist mate got back to me, this is what he said (minus the 'what the hell kind of thing are you doing' comments anyway ) -

Actually, it was a wet thursday afternoon, in London.

urgh god this is so petty. i spell things differently and a few choice people get all offended because they cant be bothered to read it, n then say because i spell differently then i must have nothing to contribute. you wouldnt say that if i had a PHD in astro physics, but was dyslexic. Lets leave it there and forget about it. and look at that, not one spelling mistake (not intentional any way)

peace, love, war etc.

No more comments on it, lets drop it, please? sake of the board and all that?

nope, the post wasnt changed at all. anyway, its over now so moo. Thats a point, does he have a coffee maker or does he (did he) make single cups of coffee? Could make a difference because the maker could be poisoned at any time, where as the single cup could have been made by someone for him or the drug could have been put in the jar of coffee he used to make it, in which case the drug would STILL be in the jar....
Emailing Anna and asking her what he uses to make his coffee !!

What is bothering me:
I am not certain I am reading this correctly, or perhaps the reports are vague. Is the cheek abrasion only due to desk pressure and subsequent livor mortis? Because it did not seem to exist until the body was moved and examined.

Also, why wasn't the cheek saliva sampled and tested?

Other bothers:

The forensics officer at 12:20 (perhaps it was rushed) claims time of death between 10 and 12, and the key is open, on, and has the vital sign alert on it. Yet the coroner at 12:35-ish says that the key specifically read 11:50 at death. Not necessarily a clue, but it's odd.

Also odd that the Forensics report has the strikethrough error MAI for MIM(-asan).

The witness statement jpgs are all posted as 14/1 when they were taken on the 14th, 15th, and 16th, as noted.

I believe Miranda specifically had something to do with this, especially considering her witness statements (I never really talked to him, etc, when Isaac was popping Ceretin to speak with her). She clearly is exerting her pheromone/attraction ability during the statement - the interrogator breaks off at the end with "only one more question," "no, no, please - are you okay" bits. I think that Cymbalisty had a cold or bacterial respiratory infection (hence the green mucus, grey esophageal mucosa, reddened eyes), and thus wasn't susceptible to Miranda's..."influence." She's also been bringing in food to the library staff (not to mention Kurt). (And I still think she's an AI with no fingerprints or family. heh.)

Off home, will elaborate more later.

As to the abrasion, I may be wrong, but I think the coroner/police surgeon will examine the body in situ at the site, but without moving it. Then the body will be moved/stripped and end up in the mortuary where the PM can be done along with a full examination. Explains the fact that the green mottling wasn't seen in situ (clothed) and the abrasion wasn't seen (assuming the abrasion was cause by contact between face and desk, so it's not seen till they lift up his head).

Miranda - Pheremone power? Is this a spec (have seen it mentioned elsewhere) or a definite?

[Mikeyj]

It's a definite prejudice...Miranda is a witch. Miranda in The Tempest was a rubbish heroine and the name's origins are something like"a woman who must be admired" from Latin mirare.

But anyway...you shouldn't believe Cassandra, she might be right
