the spots come from coagulated blood the stiffness is rigamortis from the loss of heat due to no blood flow and the rotting part is different depending on the conditions of storage cant be exact on that one

A few hours after a person dies they go through what is called Rigor Mortis. This is when the muscles of the body stiffen which is why their body is so hard.
As for the purple/blue spots on the body - that is caused by the deprivation of oxygen to those parts of the body. Since the person is dead the heart can no longer pump blood to the body, and since the blood carries the oxygen to the body, the body is deprived of oxygen. The various parts of the body may turn bluish/purple at different times and this just depends on the amount of oxygen that was used at at different rates.

Rigermortis sets in-- hardening of the skin and tissues also the purple spots are where the blood settles... like in little pools.
Some bodies decompose much faster than others. Some can decompose in a matter of a month, others .. a year.

It's called rigor mortise the body looses it's flexibility and becomes hard the purple spots could be three things liver spots, aides legions or that the blood has settled I'm not an expert I watch CSI on T.V. try it you can learn.

Hmmm. . . if you are talking about what I think you are. . it is blood congealing in the parts of the body that are on the floor. . . for instance, if a person were laying on their back when they died, they would have purplish marks on the back of them. This is actually one way that detectives can determine if a body has been moved after death. Say, if a person had these marks on their back but were now laying on their side, the police would know that the body had been moved.

there bodies become hard because there is no blood flow to the bones and for the bones to appear it takes about 6 months to a year.

they have purple spots on them because they have no oxygen going through there body so the look purple. but the blood in a body is normally red because it contains oxygen in it it looks purple but it is actually blue.

they have to rot, and those purple spots may be the first stage of decomposition.
