Brian had never done an autopsy before on a victim of a shark attack, and the other authorities who saw Michelle’s body didn’t even know what a shark attack victim looked like, as they had never seen it before either.
Brian did reach out to the Scripps Institute of Oceanography to ask for more information on shark attack victims, but none of those experts saw Michelle’s body.
He figured her cause of death had to be drowning and blood loss. He went on to detail in the autopsy report that Michelle had been attacked by a great white shark sometime around midnight.
This is where the facts don’t quite add up…

The water temperature off the coast of Sunset Cliffs was just 59 degrees, which is absolutely freezing.
Why would Michelle have decided to take a skinny dip in such frigid waters? That doesn’t add up for a lot of people.
Others thought maybe she fell off one of the cliffs that are so precariously steep, but her autopsy does not point to that at all.
Several shark experts have disputed Brian’s findings, insisting Michelle could not have been a victim of a shark attack.
