My husband was murdered, and they held his unembalmed body for over 2 weeks. One of the reasons for holding his body was for retesting.

BTW, the cause of death in Louisiana is public, and his was published in the local paper.

I'm sorry about your husband. That's awful.

I imagine in that case, they kept his body refrigerated. If the authorities in Terri's case believe the autopsy was adequate, there's no reason to do anything except to release the body for final dispostion.
