Then you missed out on the autopsy episode, where they literally showed you what they do when they saw you open

Apparently. The ones I saw dealt mostly with people that had been dead for years and were nothing but bones or mummified corpses. I recall that I saw a case about a guy who put his wife's body in a bag and they caught him because the bag left scratches on the seat of the row boat and one about a guy who covered his wife's body in wax(?) and kept it as a sex toy.
