Autopsy report released in death of woman whose dismembered torso was found in Encino trash binTuesday, March 19, 2024 12:12AM
The body part was found on Nov. 8, 2023 and the following month, it was positively identified as 37-year-old Mei Li Haskell's remains. The Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner's report listed Haskell's "head, majority of the neck, and majority of all 4 extremities" as "absent." "There was no definitive indication that the dismemberment occurred antemortem, however, the possibility that the head and neck removal was initiated prior to death cannot be entirely excluded," read the report.
