Abstract
The purpose of this study is to explain function and position of the forensic doctor in assisting in the clarity of a murder crime so that autopsy is needed in order to know the cause of death, the mechanism of death, and assisting in estimating the time of death and the manner of death. The method used in this study is normative juridical approach that is reviewing decision Number 79/Pid.B/2012/PN.BGR which in the judge’s decision does not use the autopsy process. Legal material collected is through literature study approach or with secondary data.
