Decades of mystery. Thousands of case files. One man who has seen it all.

Famed pathologist Dr. Cyril Wecht is returning to the Lincoln Park Performing Arts Center for “A Pathological Discussion With Dr. Cyril Wecht” on Saturday, September 10 at 2:00 PM. Dr. Wecht discussed the ins and outs of the show with Matt Drzik on the September 2 edition of A.M. Beaver County.

“The format of the show…John McIntire and I have been doing this for years now,” Wecht said, referring to what audiences should be looking out for. The format of the show goes through some of the most high-profile cases in American history–names such as O.J. Simpson, Marilyn Monroe, Jon Benet Ramsey, and Anna Nicole Smith, just to name a few. “It’s not a scientific lecture like in a classroom,” he added, “I present it in a way that people understand, and they’ll find it interesting.” The audience will then participate in a Q&A with Wecht and McIntire at the end of the show.

Largest of all the names on the list is John F. Kennedy, a case still shrouded in mystery nearly 60 years later. Wecht–who just recently joined the Midland Innovation & Technology Charter School as the namesake of its Forensic Science & Justice Academy–says that he doesn’t see that truth ever coming to light. “It pains me greatly to say that I am very pessimistic,” he stated. “It hurts me greatly as an American citizen, as a forensic scientist, and as an attorney…not a damn thing has been done.”

Tickets for “A Pathological Discussion With Dr. Cyril Wecht” can be purchased at the Lincoln Park Box Offices in Midland, by visiting lincolnparkarts.org, or by calling (724)-576-4644.
