Coroner

The job of a Forensic pathologist has always fascinated me. Forensic pathologist are more commonly know as medical examiners, not to be confused with a coroner. A medical examiner assists the government in determining the cause of death by examining a corpse,a process known as an autopsy. Medical examiners are not limited to forensic pathology, they can also become clinical pathologist and perform an autopsy upon request. I have always been intrigued by the science of pathology and anatomy, the…

passed away. The coroner is looking into the cause of death, but as of now, nothing has been confirmed about how or why he died. His death comes as a shock to fans. Initially, it was believed to be a hoax, but that is not the case. According to TMZ, John Heard was staying at the hotel while recovering from a minor back surgery he had Wednesday. His rep confirmed the procedure but no more information was given. At this point, it is going to be a "wait and see" situation as the coroner needs to…

suicide, but Jack Douglas (1967) in The Social Meanings of Suicide argued the suicide rates tend to have some biases and social construction that tend to be influenced by not only the connections of an individual such as friends and family but also coroners. In other words, an individual’s integration into society can influence the way death is classified. Therefore, this provides evidence that once again, Durkheim’s statistical reference might show flaws in the reporting of suicides. In…

As most know, it is taboo to alter a crime scene before it has been processed by appropriate officials. It should always be remembered that each time the body of the decedent is touched or moved, there is a significant possibility that valuable evidence could be lost or contaminated. The Locard’s exchange principle is an idea that whenever someone makes contact with an item, person, or location physical evidence is either taken or left behind, which is then collected and used as forensic…

either because such experiences would be impossible to obtain or unhelpful for learning the skill. For example, it would be absurd to anticipate that coroners need to experience death before they can acquire skill in examining deaths and carry on with their professions. If that were the case, then no one could ever make to be a coroner. This example illustrates a contradiction to the claim by illustrating that some experience is not possible to acquire before. Similarly, a doctor who…

Leela now has the right to file suit against Daily Speed as her reputation as a prominent women’s right activist has been…
