because i think this is what the people don t understand. if you label it accident, the investigation ends? what happens? well, some will tell you that the investigation doesn t have to end, right? it will say, well, you know, prosecutors can take accidents, they do it with motor vehicle collisions all the time and they prosecute motor vehicle homicides. but in reality, when the medical examiner calls something accidents or undetermined, a lot of the times the prosecution will not move forward. the investigation will not move forward. the minute you put in homicide, then it just creates urgency, pressure, or is there actually more mandated investigating that has to be done? that s on law enforcement, right. as the objective forensic pathologist, my job is not to calculate what the effects of my cause and manner are going to be, but merely to call the truth on my cause and manner. and ensure that the cause and manner is reliable and reproduceable.
