Re: The autopsy being done on Friday. This is Los Angeles, the second biggest city in the United States. There are many deaths here. Many. Most need autopsies because they are unattended deaths by a physician. Those all require the Medical Examiner's office to do an autopsy for COD, MOD.
The bodies line up. There were other dead bodies found around the county before the one burning yesterday. All these victims have families who are waiting for answers. Many already waited longer than Bryce's family has. I don't in any way mean to be insensitive to their family, or anyone's, but I've had family members at the L.A. County Coroners Office and have had to wait for the results of an autopsy. We all have to wait our turn. One person is no more important than another, unless you are Michael Jackson, Nicole Brown Simpson or River Phoenix.
In addition, when an autopsy is performed, in many cases someone from LE needs to be present in case there are bullets recovered, that need to be taken to the lab for ballistic testing, they might have a suspect on hold and need proof as to whether she/he will be charged or not.
I've hope I've explained this without stepping on toes, that is not my intent. I'm just trying to answer why it won't be until tomorrow that an autopsy is performed. There are a LOT of people here and a LOT of dead bodies to be dealt with. IMO, JMO.
