9:04 But first the police superintendent and crime technician Goran Dyvesveen from the NCIS start on site work that was done on Utøya.
9:04 First, it is shown how the dead were found.
9:05 Dyvesveen: - 69 people died on Utøya, 67 of them died of gunshot wounds.
9:07 Dyvesveen: - When the crime scene investigation began on Saturday 23 July, 58 died on Utøya. 10 of the dead were in the course of the evening 22 July brought away from Utøya and countries. The injured were taken to hospital where he died on Saturday 23 July.
9:09 Dyvesveen: - First, I explain how the work was done on Utøya.
9:10 Dyvesveen: - We started early on Saturday 23 July. Then I and a colleague around the island together with the local leader of the police effort. We walked across the island to get an overview and how many dead lying there.
9:10 12 correctional professionals surveyed. They worked in teams of three and three.
9:11 The area was photographed several times. The dead were photographed both covered and uncovered.
9:11 After examination of the dead were made, they were transported to the land and into the stretcher cars that carried the dead to autopsy in Oslo.
9:12 Also, the fire brigade and civil defense forces participated in the work.
9:12 Time 16.50 on Sunday 24 July, all the dead carried away from Utøya.
9:13 All the dead were autopsied to determine the damage and also as part of the identification work.
9:14 Dyvesveen: - Identification work is done by a special ID group in NCIS. There are also dentists, geneticists and crime technicians.
9:14 Now the professor Torleiv Rognum keep their introduction.
9:16 Professor Rognum: - It was brought in specialists from all over Norway to participate in the autopsy work.
9:17 Prof. Rognum: - We have looked at the types of injuries, the type of ammunition used, why it was difficult to determine the shot distance and cause of death.
9:18 Prof. Rognum: - We had a night to construct a mobile refrigeration unit to keep all fatalities.
9:18 Prof. Rognum: - early Sunday morning 24 July they started the autopsy work.
9:19 The number of fatalities was a big challenge given the limited space on the Public Health where autoplay is executed.
9:20 Prof. Rognum: - We saw quickly that the damage was advanced and difficult.
9:20 Prof. Rognum: - We had to bring in aid, among other things, to carry out CT scan of the deceased.
9:21 Prof. Rognum: - The deceased was one and brought in a dignified manner, from Utøya the stretcher cars to the department. It was far more than a hundred people involved in the work.
9:22 Prof. Rognum: - There was a spirit of voluntary work which meant that we were able to identify all of six days.
9:23 Prof. Rognum: - Why did we have a collaboration with radiologists? It was partly because it was very advanced damage. There were at least three different types of ammunition from two different weapons.
9:23 Prof. Rognum: - The type of ammunition that was used meant that the injuries were difficult to identify because of the extensive damage that was inflicted.
9:25 Prof. Rognum: - Radiologists could recreate a 3D image of the deceased and show the damage that was inflicted.
9:26 Prof. Rognum: - The deceased was between 14 and 52 years. All 29 people were hit by three shots each.
9:26 One died of injuries from falling, while one died of drowning.
9:27 67 people died from gunshot wounds.
9:27 25 was struck in the head and neck.
9:28 Prof. Rognum explains why it was difficult to determine what ammunition was used.
9:29 The damage inflicted by high-speed weapon, that Ruger rifle, is greater than from gun ammunition.
9:31 A high-speed projectile will begin to rotate inside the body and become fragmented into thousands of tiny pieces of metal and create large internal injuries.
9:31 Prof. Rognum: - This makes it difficult to investigate.
9:33 A close shot within a meter will dismiss gunpowder marks and burn marks. This makes it possible for crime technicians and ballistikere to say something about the distance. Beyond a meter it is difficult to say something about the distance.
9:34 Prof. Rognum shows examples of how the gunshot wounds would look like. The pictures are from samples with gelatin as Police ballistics performed.
9:35 Prof. Rognum: - It is difficult to say whether the victim's position when we examine the person of the autopsy room. If the victim was standing or lying down.
9:35 Prof. Rognum: - Are there multiple gunshot wounds, one can sometimes say something about the shot that was applied first.
9:36 Prof. Rognum said that some of the victims of Utøya not died instantly from his injuries.
9:37 Prof. Rognum: - There were three cases where the basis of the original discovery sites found it difficult to determine cause of death. Some had injuries that were similar to drowning injuries. Later we learned that these victims were not found in the water.
9:38 Prof. Rognum: - In one case the victim had shot changes in the lungs that could look like drowning damage. This was due to damages of high-speed projectiles.
9:40 Prof. Rognum: - We will not go into what kind of ammunition that the individual was shot with. We will only go into the fire damage and causes of death.
9:41 The court is now taking a 20 minute break until at 10
