Maybe Headland called/handed over the investigation to another agency and they picked up the body, hence this coroner have no further knowledge of this body and it's place. It doesn't make sense that LE would secure the place for overnight, go back the next day and don't give the body to any coroner.
I have no idea what is going on there, but there was an article from the same source already when they found the skull, which said this coroner (Derek Wright) wasn't called to the scene,
http://www.rickeystokesnews.com/article.php/updated-513-pm-developing-news-skull-found-in-headland-on-cleveland-street-38799 and the writer notified him to go there.
Not notifying this specific coroner could mean several things:
a.) Hedadland police could have a specific problem with this coroner (which could be mutual or not) and using another from elsewhere
b.) Headland LE could have something to hide
c.) Headland LE could be incompetent
d.) Some other agency could have taken over the investigation, which took the body to their coroner and there could be no problem at all
e.) The body could still be there (which I find very unlikely after that LE has secured the scene for overnight and they went back the next morning)
f.) It could have been determined early on that it wasn't Headlands jurisdiction after all
Now the writer of the article:
- could be aware of a.) , b.) , c.) , e.) to be truth and that's why he wrote the article
- could be aware of d.) , f.) to be the truth but wrote the article anyway to undermine Headland LE and/or defend/support the coroner
- could really have no idea what happened and made no full research before writing the article
- or he could have tried to find out the truth and got nowhere
All the above is MOO and observations only.
