Once the bodies were exhumed,
they were placed in body bags and taken about an hour’s drive from
Srebrenica to a bombed-out sewing factory, which the forensic scientists
had turned into a makeshift morgue. The place bustled with activity.
In a room that had once served as the factory’s cafeteria, workers
would open each body bag and sweep a fluoroscope slowly over a body.
When a bullet slug appeared on the monitor, a technician would take
a scalpel and make a small incision near the slug and pull it out with
a pair of tongs. One morning I watched as a technician pulled 33 slugs
from one body.
