If someone were to die because a pacemaker was shorted-out by an electric shock, would any marks appear on the body where the pacemaker was inserted?
Actually, I'm writing a murder mystery and I want to make sure what I write is feasible.
This is the situation: An electric charge is sent through an old-style telephone - the one talking on it is the guy with a pacemaker. The charge is a full 110 volts, so, forensically speaking, if this was enough to be transfered through the earpiece and into the victim, would it kill him? And if it did, besides an obvious (?) bleeding from the ear, would the pacemaker also be fried in the process? If it were, would an ME be able to see that on the body in the form of bruising around the pacemaker, or something like that?
