Anthony Clark
Forensic pathologist who performed the July 19, 2014 autopsy of Dan Markel and testified as a State witness in four Markel-case trials.
About
Clark supplies the medical foundation common to all four Markel-case trials: the number, order, range, and lethality of the shots, the revolver indication drawn from the soot pattern, and the formal homicide finding. Because his account remained materially unchanged across proceedings spanning six years and different defendants, his testimony functions as a fixed reference point in the record for the physical facts of the shooting itself.
