Case Report
Commercial Woodchipper Fatality
Dean A. Beers

Larimer County Coroner’s Office
Loveland, CO
Abstract: This paper discusses collecting, sorting, cataloging, and identifying the remains of a person killed in a woodchipper incident. Also, the manner of death is determined to be an accident.
Background
The decedent and one employee were trimming trees on private residential property. The decedent was disposing of cut limbs via a commercial woodchipper; his employee was in an aerial bucket-lift, trimming and dropping limbs. The employee observed that the decedent appeared to be drawn into the feeding mechanism of the woodchipper by a gloved hand. At that time, the employee began a descent and then jumped from the bucket-lift at approximately 10 to 12 feet from the ground. By the time he reached the decedent (approximately 22 feet away), only the decedent’s feet were visible as they were being drawn into the woodchipper. The employee went to the residence and requested that 911 be called.
The commercial woodchipper was a Vermeer 2001 BC1250A Brush Chipper. Its only safety device was a bar to reverse the intake gears, located at the sides and traversing across the top. The intake feed opening was 12" x 12", with two vertical 16"
diameter intake gears (with opposing rotations to pull limbs into the cutting wheel). The cutting wheel was 41.25" in diameter and 1.5" wide, with four hardened steel blades. The intake rate was 0 to 150 feet per minute. The employee indicated that the speed had been set at the equivalent of approximately 75 feet per minute. (Given this estimated rate and the decedent’s height, the estimated elapsed time of this incident was less than seven seconds.) Information from Vermeer also supported that a 1" to 2" limb could be stuck or pulled through the machinery mostly intact because of the gap distance between the gears and cutting blades versus the machine itself.
There was no other information to confirm that only one person was involved in the incident or that this was an accident (versus suicide or homicide). One concern was that someone may have attempted to help the decedent and also had been drawn into the woodchipper.
On-scene tentative identification of the decedent to this point was based only on the statements of the employee. There was personal identification within the remains; however, positive identification of any person(s) was not possible at the scene.
Investigation
The original plan was to collect en masse the remains and continue the investigation at the morgue. However, the decision was made to continue securing the scene, to obtain assistance from the fire department for lighting, and to conduct a thorough scene investigation and logging of the evidence.
Sorting the Remains: The Ground
Beginning with the remains on the ground between the woodchipper and the product truck (Figure 1), and working from those nearest the woodchipper to nearest the product truck, the remains and associated evidence were photographed, collected, cataloged, and sorted by categories into clothing, property and evidence, remains for identification (e.g., DNA, dental, fingerprints), and then remaining body parts. These bags were individually marked and sealed on scene. The area containing remains on the ground measured approximately 68" by 22" at its widest point.
Two fingers (later identified as the right middle and right little fingers), an intact and circumcised penis, a nipple, parts of the heart and spleen, brain matter, pieces of scalp and head hair, and multiple unidentified bone fragments were recovered.
Pieces of clothing were recovered, including pieces of dark denim material, pieces of red and black plaid cotton material, and white cotton material. Personal property that was recovered included pieces of a lip balm product, pieces of currency (later determined to be from a five-dollar bill), and the frame of the right eyeglass lens.
Also in this area was a 1.5" diameter tree limb measuring approximately 70" in length. This was broken into three sections of approximately 22" to 24" each.
Sorting the Remains: The Product Truck
The same process was repeated to gather the remains in the product truck, working from the tailgate toward the cab. The area containing the remains in the product truck measured approximately 110" by 22".

Turned out awesome.
Only ended up with about 2ltrs though.

Yours has got more tomato in it by the looks of it than mine. Added quite a few mustard seeds and turmeric also. Ate a hole jar last Sunday with Flinders Ash rind. What a combo!

Mill 'em, nails be damned.
Enjoy work tomorrow fellas. Public holiday here and weather is finally letting up enough to let me out on the kayak for a fish. Tried a few days ago but the surf was closing out the whole bar so I couldn't get out (not enough time between sets for my bathtub to make it out before getting nailed).
