In some article I read by Jim Garrison -- the real life DA from NO Stone made JFK about -- Garrison asserted that when "the Establishment" wanted to infiltrate and "control" an area, they would make it a priority to get one of "their people" in the position of medical examiner because the position has so much power in a real world way. The position can label deaths accidental/murder, etc.

Perhaps there's more to this guy than meets the eye...

Here's another story, significant only because the accused murderer's birthday is the day Smith was attacked: Saturday, June 1st.:

They are accusing the Shelby County medical examiner of purposefully withholding evidence that could have helped them defend Workman."That X-ray was absent from the record for one reason: the Medical Examiner's Office suppressed it," the attorneys wrote yesterday in the motion to reopen the case. Dr. O.C. Smith, Shelby County medical examiner, did not return a request for comment yesterday.

from this Death Row Inmate's Case History page, which I neither support, nor am against... just remember it from Court TV:
Philip Workman; Tennessee Death Row
The Case Today

Interesting coincidence, if that's all it is. I wonder how much more can be found about Smith?

I wonder how much more can be found about Smith?

I attended a week-long seminar with Dr. Smith the first week of May. While I do not know him that well, he is a straight-up guy, IMO.
