No, do you believe that parent of a dead minor child can refuse an autopsy on the child in cases where the child died from some type of physical trauma or mysterious circumstances?


No. At this point it becomes a legal, not medical matter. Someone died and it is the responsibility of those charged with our protection to determine if there is a murderer among us. A dead body is probable cause for an autopsy.

“No. At this point it becomes a legal, not medical matter.”

In this case, the parents where under community supervision (probation) which as is a legal matter. And by refusing to seek medical attention for the second child, they violated the terms of their probation.

Therefore, this case is a legal matter.

Do you still believe that these parents were acting within their rights by not seeking medical attention for their child?
