Perfect Corpse – PBS Nova


In a morbidly fascinating new documentary, NOVA gains exclusive access to forensic scientists and local police authorities investigating two mysterious murder cases. As police unearth stunning evidence of brutal, ritualistic killings, they quickly realize they are the wrong people to solve these crimes. Archeologists step in and soon find evidence pointing to violent deaths in the prehistoric Iron Age, over 2,000 years ago. In this program, NOVA probes how these people lived and why they died.

This will be no ordinary investigation, because this is no ordinary ground. Found by accident in waterlogged Irish peat bogs, the corpses are almost perfectly preserved. Although the ancient perpetrators are now well beyond the reach of law, the bog bodies will yield fascinating secrets if modern science asks the right questions.
