O'Neil needs a sample of a dead man's blood to test for toxic drugs. So he visits the corpse, which has been dead for quite some time and is lying on its back, and proceeds to insert a hypodermic syringe into the dead man's frontal neck, extracting the sample. But blood pools low in the body soon after death. There ought to have been no blood available from that location of the body. To get blood, O'Neil should've punctured the corpse's underside.

To submit your own corrections for mistakes, just click the edit icon under an entry, then choose "correct entry". Some entries have "duplicated entry" after them - these are entries which were already listed on the main page, but were submitted again. I occasionally leave these online for a while, just in case they were moved in error, so don't worry about pointing them out to me.
Why doesn't Marshall simply send request for help to Earth, after he finds out the foul play that is corrupting even the "Io PD"? [At the end he sends a message to his wife, something about "looking forward to sleeping with you for a year".(A year to get to Io would be about right with the tech we have now, and the movie doesn't really show any radically advanced technology.) If it takes a year to get honest cops there, what's the point?]
