The two deaths are comparable in too many ways. It could drive the case for an INDEPENDENT autopsy.
And since Perper and Howard would be the chief witnesses at Daniel's inquest...and if Howard was feeding Perper false information....well...It looks like just another case of "The Director" at his best!!
I wouldn't be surprised if Perper wants to re-evaluate Daniel's autopsy and even change it.
Perper wasn't hired by Stern. He's paid by Broward County.
