So far, the investigation team has established that the body found was a white male, aged between 30 and 60 and about 6ft (1.8 metres). <\/p>\n
“The wetsuit that he was wearing was classed as an XXL size which gave us a weight range of approximately 200 to 220 pounds,” Ponting said.<\/p>\n
“And that is pretty much what we were able to establish from our initial inquiries.”<\/p>\n
She is now hoping the new facial reconstruction by a team at Liverpool John Moores University might change all that. <\/p>\n
Police provided the university’s Face Lab team with photographs, a post-mortem report, a forensic dental report and a CT scan, which the specialists then used to create a 3D model with medical imaging software.<\/p>\n
They used the dental report and images to create the shape of the man’s lower face and mouth, identifying that he had protruding teeth and a left-sided cross bite.<\/p>\n
They then estimated the shape of the man’s face, lips and nose by adding muscles to the model and established he had a rounded chin and square jawline, with a down-turned nose.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"So far, the investigation team has established that the body found was a white male, aged between 30…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":465261,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[59,57,58,50,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-465260","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-united-kingdom","tag-gb","tag-great-britain","tag-greatbritain","tag-news","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/465260","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=465260"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/465260\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/465261"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=465260"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=465260"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=465260"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
