## Resource

The newly released autopsy report for Melissa Casias, a Los Alamos National Laboratory employee who vanished from Taos County, New Mexico, reveals she died from a gunshot wound to the head, but officials have officially ruled her manner of death as undetermined. As her grieving family pushes for answers and raises questions after hiring private investigators who uncovered additional remains and evidence left behind at the scene, serious doubts emerge about the handling of the case. Law&Crime's Jesse Weber breaks down the critical medical findings with former FBI Special Agent and crisis management expert Daniel Brunner.
