Crime Files - Jeremy Brown Vocabulary

Jargon - terms that are specifically used for a certain group.
Prepare for this book's jargon. You won't understand half of the terms in the book if you don't watch Investigation Discovery. So let the night mares begin and your fear of walking in dark consume you. I'm going to tell you about one of the best "who done it" books ever!(in my opinion).
This book's jargon is based on CSI vocabulary; asphyxiate, autopsy, EMT, hemorrhage, homicide and much much more. Luckily for the faint, there is a glossary on the back section of the book to help you out.
One of the made up characters of Brown is Laura Crown; the forensic pathologist of the team. She is "quick to recite the qualifications of a forensic pathologist should anyone refer to her as a ...coroner."(3). Many of her lines are filled to the brim with CSI jargon. For example "Amanitin and phalloidin,"she said." (57). What? Lets see amanitin and phalloidin, those words are not part of my vocabulary. Then if you read on in the book it will tell you that those were two types of poisons that you would find in mushrooms. Good to know right?

Those are death cap mushrooms, and if you were to soak them in alcohol, the amanitin can be removed. So don't eat them!
