In Medical Jurisprudence. Suspended animation and death produced by non-conversion of the venous blood of the lungs into arterial; by breathing mephitic gas; by suspension or strangulation. In a legal point of view, it is always proper to ascertain whether the person who has thus been deprived of his senses is the victim of another, whether the injury has been caused by accident, or whether it is the act of the sufferer himself.
