This study concludes that forensic medicine plays an essential role in investigating the crime of premeditated murder in case no. 116/Pid.B/2019/PN.Bms because of the need to identify corpses that have become bones and charred, so how important it is that forensic medicine is poured into evidence in the letter category in the form of Visum et Repertum, which by police investigators is under Article 133 of the Criminal Procedure Code to be used as legal evidence in uncovering and seeking the material truth of a criminal act that occurred.
