How much pressure is needed to leave a shoe tread bruise on skin?
Hi everyone 👋🏻
A bit of a random question but my daughter had an incident at school today where another child stomped (seemingly purposefully) on her hand to the extent she ended up with some small cuts to her fingers and a bruise on the back of her hand where the tread of the other child’s trainer is visible in the bruise.
I watch a lot of forensics type shows and I seem to recall that leaving a shoe print as a bruise requires a fair bit of force?
I want to approach the school about it as I don’t feel it’s been handled appropriately but I’d like to be accurately informed first, as the other child says it was an accident.
ETA: To clarify, I just wanted to know for when I approach school that it isn’t something that could occur with very minimal contact.
I don’t want the other child to get in trouble. I just thought police officers would obviously have experience with assault type stuff and so know what common type injuries are, I don’t know if that makes sense!
I’ll add this to my OP.
