Tip for reading list: The Man Who Talks To The Dead

“Bodies speak to me,” Dr Shepherd told GQ magazine in an interview last year.

This “man’s inhumanity to man”, as Dr Shepherd described it in the interview, pushed him over the edge in 2016, and left him with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).


Britain’s top forensic pathologist Dr Richard Shepherd has been cutting up bodies for 35 years, and reckons that he has perfomed over 23,000 autopsies in his career. Beginning with the Hungerford massacre of August 1987, he has examined the evidence in a very large number of high-profile cases — including the Clapham Junction crash of 1988 in which 35 people were killed, the 1989 Marchioness disaster on the Thames in which over 50 people died, the death of Princess Diana in Paris in 1997, the 9/11 terrorist attacks that killed 3,000 people in the United States, the London bombings of July 7, 2005, and the Bali bombings of 2002 and 2005.
