Aha, but you are wrong. The County Coroner answers to no one. Not the Governor, not the judiciary, not to the legislative branch (and certainly not to Michael Schiavo). If he doesn't order an autopsy, if she dies, he will not be doing his job.....
No one else seems to be able to buck Greer. Why is the coroner different? Greer granted MS's request for immediate cremation. On what grounds could an autopsy be ordered? She died in a medical facility after years of "care" for a "known medical cause." In most states, that seals it.
If anyone other than MS could ask for an autopsy, would we be in this stalemate right now?
