Dr Joanna Glengarry Forensic Pathologist

Dr Joanna Glengarry Forensic Pathologist

Show Notes Ep 225 of Australian True Crime with Meshel Laurie and Emily Webb

Dr Joanna Glengarry studied for 8 years to be a surgeon but not long after completing her studies and entering the theatre she realised her true passion was forensic pathology. In her native Auckland, that meant another 5 years of formal study, just to get an introduction at the city mortuary. She was taken on as a Saturday volunteer.

Fortunately for Joanna, but unfortunately for Auckland, the mortuary was severely understaffed, and they had a lot of violent deaths, so she quickly picked up more shifts, even paid ones, and in no time at all Dr Glengarry became a very handy forensic pathologist. SO handy in fact that she was poached of course, by the Victorian Institute of Forensic Medicine or VIFM in Melbourne.

Dr Glengarry is one of the pathologists featured in my book CSI Told You Lies.
