Abstract: One of the primary objectives of Criminal Forensics is to establish the diagnosis of the legal cause of death in order to determine the chances of homicide, suicide or accident. In confirming this differential diagnosis, in addition to scientific knowledge, minimally of Criminalistics and Legal Medicine, the expert must use all his experience and attention in order to perceive details that would go unnoticed by non-experts. It should focus not only on the examination of the site of the fact, but also study the necroscopy, the complementary exams and the elements of information collected by the investigation, in order to subsidize all the details available for its technical conclusion. The present article focused on the study of cases of suspicious deaths through the use of firearm projectiles, all initially reported as suicide. In this type of location, in the event of a faked suicide, the investigation becomes very complex, in general it is not possible to make a diagnosis based on a single trace, which often culminates, after collecting all the available information. during the investigation or the process, in the need to proceed with the simulated reproduction of the facts. With the exception of traces that indicate struggle or violent movement at the scene, the most relevant traces for this diagnosis are the positioning of the corpse, injuries, suicide letter, firearm, projectile, gunshot residue in the hands of the corpse, distance of the shot and the bloodstains.
