Scoop Video: (Editor's Warning: scenes displayed in this video content will disturb) -A new video showing the dead body of former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein has been leaked. The video footage shows Saddam Hussein being unwrapped from a shroud specifically for the purpose of digitally recording his dead body and displaying a wide open gash to his throat. Again, the leaked video appears to have been taken with a camera phone and similar to the leaked video of Saddam standing at the gallows and responding to taunts from those sent as witnesses to his execution.

In this latest video, Saddam's head is unnaturally twisted at a 90-degree angle to his right. It shows a gaping bloody wound, circular in shape, about an inch below his jaw line on the left side of his neck. His left cheek is marked with red blotches, and there is blood on the shroud where it covered his head.
