From a Reuter's story filed today:
Michael Schiavo's lawyer George Felos said that his client hoped an autopsy would dispel doubts that he was trying to hide something by seeking to cremate his wife's body.
I would guess the Pinellas County Medical Examiner's decision guarantees their secret autopsy will not dispel anything. Especially now that the body has been cremated.
The ME must be incompetent. Otherwise, they would have extended professional courtesy to the Schindler's forensic pathologist, Dr..Wecht. Clearly, they do not want a recognized pathologist/corner looking at whatever it is they don't want seen.
Incompetent or complicit?
that county has all the earmarks of a good ole southern county ruled by a cabal of 'one hand washes..." boys
