With regard to the knife that was found, the witness confirmed that according to the opinion, he could have "allowed" - that some of the cuts and the stab trenches had characteristics that corresponded to it, i.e., that she could have created them, but it can never be said with certainty that this was the knife with which they were performed (pp.  587-588), and added that in the present case "I did not find wounds that could not have been created by this knife or this knife" (pp.  589, paras.  2-3).  Some of the stabbings were carried out perpendicularly, and some in a more tangential and broader manner.  The witness clarified to the court that he "allows" the intention that there are progenitor characteristics that correspond to the finding.  When asked about the existence of a "fatal stabbing," he replied that no puncture was found, which in itself indicated significant damage that could have been fatal in itself, and the maximum he found was that one of the stabbing channels could and caused pneumothorax, i.e., air chest and lung damage, or the motorax - bleeding into the same cavity, but this one like this - did not, on their own, cause death within an hour.  For this reason, he says, he determined that there are two possible mechanisms, which contributed to death.  The first is sub-volumetric shock, i.e., massive blood loss, and the second is respiratory deprivation, which is a general name for several conditions, including pneumotors, which cause the exchange of gases in the blood, which is actually breathing, or the stage leading to cellular respiration, to be impaired.  In other words, it is a problem in the supply of oxygen to the blood, for example, due to the accumulation of air in the pleural cavity, which impairs the gas exchange activity by the lung, which is located in the temat.  In response to the defense attorney's question, the witness denied that he had seen a significant tumor of that lung, but according to him, the fact that its ability to spread, and the ability to exchange gases, decreased, is sufficient to cause respiratory deprivation.  When asked about the possibility that the deceased Trocker was admitted, he replied that he arrived without anything related to the medical procedure that was performed on him (p.  595, para.  16).
