520 |a Anecdotal reports of deceased celebrities being found nude abound, yet research is lacking regarding the frequency of nudity at death. Moreover, it is unknown if nudity at the time of death is a useful investigative clue or a distracting non-factor in equivocal death cases.

Logistic regression results indicate that a female victim being found nude is a strong indicator of homicide.
