A defense emergency-medicine expert described severe hypothermia, lacerations, fractures, cardiac arrest, and injuries consistent with self-injury while declining to infer intent.
[SWORN TESTIMONY] Dr. Michael Vulfovich, a board-certified emergency physician retained by the defense, reviewed scene photos and South Shore and Brigham records rather than treating Lindsay. He described severe hypothermia, reduced responsiveness, neck and wrist lacerations, spinal fractures, cardiac arrest, hemorrhage, and other injuries. He called the cuts consistent with self-injurious behavior but said he could not gauge intent. Questions asking whether the wounds were fake or constituted a suicide attempt drew sustained objections; those questions are not evidence.
