I recently saw an episode of Crime Scene Investigation where someone was killed by shoving a pillow on their face. The researchers found this out because his lip tie was torn. Now I wondered how and why that tears when you are suffocated?

Answer
If you force a pillow into someone’s face, the upper lip can be pushed up. It’s like having your lip pushed over your nose, tearing your lip tie.
