I think a lot of what you’re seeing is subcutaneous emphysema, either directly related to this person’s injuries or efforts at resuscitation. I’m a nurse, and that was my immediate thought when I saw the photo. There’s a small linear something at the base of the right throat, but I’m not convinced it’s a scar, either.My only thing is that there appears to be a surgery scar on the chest in the actual deceased photo. It looks healed so must be an old scar.
