There were even more injuries besides the 12 broken vertebrae and crushed skull:The only things I can think of that would cause those types of injuries are
1) Being hit by a car at significant speed
2) I hate to say this but being stomped to death in a violent manner.
3) A SEVERE case of Osteoporosis
IMO the car makes the most sense.
New Details Emerge About Gloria Satterfield’s Death: Did she trip?
Latest in the Murdaugh Murders Saga: New details emerge in the death of Gloria Satterfield, showing the story that was crafter about her fall.
www.fitsnews.com
According to a 2018 report from attorney Scott Wallinger, who was hired by Lloyds of London to represent Alex Murdaugh in the case, Gloria sustained a right-sided head laceration, a right-sided subdural hematoma, a traumatic brain injury, multiple left-side posterior rib fractures, a partially collapsed lung and a plumonary contusion.
Prior to her death on Feb. 26, 2018, “she had surgery to repair her broken ribs and to reconstruct her chest wall, and to remove significant blood in her chest cavity.”
“The (subdural hematoma) was evaluated to not be operable,” the report said. “Doctors also suspected but never located a bowel perforation. She had bilateral chest drains. There is charting by radiology to the effect that at one point her endotracheal tube was positioned too far in (touching the carina) and that an arterial line was in the wrong place, both of which eventually were rectified.”
Where I live is cow country. There are many working ranches around here along with rodeos and farmers. Both men and women work them and a lot of them are older than GS.
I have seen a lot of people I know injured in my very long life (I am 3 days older than dirt lol) and heard of a lot more. Being bucked off a horse or bull, rolling an ATV or riding mower over on you, rolling a pickup truck, falling off tractors, combines ect, having heavy machinery roll forward and hit you, getting pinned between trucks. And that's just an ordinary day at the office for a lot of people around here. The majority walk away with a few broken ribs, maybe a broken collar bone or shoulder, a broken leg, or foot or in extreme cases a hip.
Just one kind of famous example of what goes on around here. lol
Ree Drummond Says Husband’s Injury Could Have Been ‘Catastrophic’ Following Truck Collision
Thankfully, Ladd was transferred to Tulsa and had surgery to stabilize one of his fractures.

That is not even counting what the teenagers get up to on weekends with some of those double dog dare you's.
Seeing and hearing what goes on around here where people are not injured that badly, I think the kind of injuries GS had comes from a catastrophic incident. I can't even imagine unless someone took a baseball bat and beat the crap out of her or as you said stomped her with some heavy hunting boots or hit her at high speed with a heavy farm truck.
It is overwhelming to think of what she went through and the pain she suffered.
I don't know what happened to her but I am pretty sure it didn't happen falling UP 8 steps to a porch. Or down.
Guess we will know after they exhume her and do a formal autopsy.
I could be wrong.
