NOTE: Title and text changed per moderator's notes (originally posted as "Fan Fiction).
I am writing a mystery story. I have a generic question or two:
The murder victim has wine, but did not drink any. The killer wants to make it look like she drank it, but after killing her, cannot just pour it into her mouth. Would there be some way to "fake" alcohol in the blood?
How long after drinking alcohol does it get into the blood? For instance, if she was killed immediately after drinking the wine, would she show alcohol in her blood? Of course, the autopsy might show alcohol in her stomach. Would the lack of alcohol in her blood, but in her stomach, be used to determine any details about what happened before her death?
Thanks for any help.
