The autopsy reveals the medical cause of death.
Barry and Honey Sherman died of ligature neck compression: Police
“Ligature neck compression refers to strangulation that occurs as the result of a rope or some other sort of ligature being wrapped around the neck, CP24 Crime Specialist Steve Ryan said.”
Yes, I remember that. I just thought an item wrapped around a living person's neck and was still there 36 hours later would have given indications that it was the cause of death and not a false indicator. The Shermans could have been restrained by using the chokehold which restricts breathing or the carotid hold which restricts oxygen to the brain. Both methods could have been used to actually kill them or just to make them unconscious.
