Marat, who had a persistent skin disease, was working as usual in his bath when Corday pulled a knife from her bodice and stabbed him in his chest.
He died almost immediately, and Corday waited calmly for the police to come and arrest her. She was guillotined four days later. But if you see something that doesn't look right, click here to contact us!
After a heated encounter, he arrests her and takes her to a nearby jail. Three days later, on the morning of July 13, she is found dead in Outraged and saddened after the acquittal of George Zimmerman, the Florida man who killed a Black teenager in , Oakland, California resident Alicia Garza posts a message on Facebook on July 13, Her post contains the phrase "Black lives matter," which soon becomes a Johnson of Texas.
The Battle of Kursk, involving some 6, tanks, two million men, and 5, aircraft, ends with the German offensive repulsed by the Soviets at heavy cost.

He wore distinctive clothing—think dramatic robes , head scarfs and open shirts, which he adopted from working-class Parisians—and he had a visible skin disease. Because of his incendiary opinions, the journalist often found himself on the run.
He spent years hiding in attics and even Parisian sewers to escape his enemies. But by , Marat finally had a stable home and a chance to treat his increasingly painful skin condition. Now, his skin turned him into a virtual recluse. He spent his last months writing and seeking relief for his itchy, blistered skin with long soaks in the bathtub, where he worked and visited with friends and guests.
On July 13, , the revolutionary was in the bath annotating newspapers when Charlotte Corday, a member of the Girondists, a moderate republican faction that opposed the popular violence Marat had helped stoke, burst in and stabbed him to death in the chest with a kitchen knife.
Marat bled out within seconds. The dramatic murder turned Marat into an instant revolutionary martyr, and his sister carefully preserved the newspapers stained with his blood, which survive to this day. That question intrigued French forensic sleuth Philippe Charlier , a forensic scientist who investigates historic mysteries like whether Adolf Hitler is really dead or what really killed Richard the Lionheart.
Did Marat have syphilis, as suggested by his enemies? The research presents another vexing question: Is it even possible to diagnose someone with a skin condition using DNA? DNA can reveal genetic diseases and markers that point to the presence of other diseases, but when it comes to detecting the presence of infectious diseases, DNA diagnosis is still in its infancy. Even with DNA, diagnosing the long-dead revolutionary may never truly be possible.
So why bother trying? For Miguel Vilar , a genetic anthropologist and senior program officer for the National Geographic Society, the analysis is tantalizing. The analysis is the first time scientists have successfully used DNA to assist a retrospective diagnosis. Others have tried, but thorny issues of historical preservation and scientific ethics have held them back.
They analyzed it visually instead, and now think he suffered from tuberculosis. Perhaps the present study will inspire other attempts to reconsider historic figures using their DNA. But is it really possible to diagnose someone from across the centuries? However, he sees these retrospective diagnoses as well-informed speculation.
