Possibly the skeletal damage to back and right hip occurred in a single accident (motorcycle? parachute-jumping?, a fall?) several years ago.
The fresh breaks of the shattered skull vault might in part have occurred at death (or soon after). A "dent" near the cartilage end of left rib #4 and a 5 - 10° inward bending fracture of right rib #9 in the mid-axillary line (but not on ribs 8 or 10) may also have occurred at death.
