Don’t know much about autopsies, but I imagine that it’s up to the next of kin to decide whether it will be released to the public or not. Will there be a coroner involved and won’t the result go to the coroner first?
(Learn something new every day on FR.)
I just know a little bit from when I was checking out Breitbart and Cormier’s deaths, so that involved CA’s laws regarding autopsies. The county coroner is required to do autopsies of all deaths without an obvious cause or where a crime is suspected. If the county is required to do the autopsy I believe the autopsy is a public record. If it is an autopsy at the request of family, that is done privately and is not a public record.
If the laws are at all similar in Hawaii it would give another reason to have a plane crash, and to falsely report that the intended victim had been found in the fuselage: if it was clearly a drowning then the county coroner wouldn’t be required to do an autopsy and the results would thus be private. If she died of unexplained causes AFTER the crash it could compel a coroner to do a public autopsy.
Every staged event is built to have plausible deniability, and this one is no exception. It could have just been that she’s deathly afraid of water and had a heart attack, and all the reporting discrepancies were just SNAFU’s. Or it could be something else.
We know that she died AFTER the crash. My question would be whether the autopsy was compelled by law and thus is a public record, or whether the autopsy was at the request of the family and is thus a private record. It sounds like the medical people are claiming it was a private autopsy, but if that was so then the NTSB would have no business even getting the autopsy report. So as with all the other reporting, this leaves questions rather than answers.
