I suspect Morgan died long before EMS arrived and was probably showing early signs of postmortem changes. I base this on the fact that TI said when paramedics arrived, there was an initial flurry of activity but it ceased almost as quickly as it began (paraphrasing). I was a paramedic for twenty plus years and what I'm reading between the lines is after assessing Morgan, EMS did not start ACLS. If I am correct this means she had all five signs of death and most importantly to my conclusion at least one "factor of death"; ie rigor, or livor mortis, injuries incompatible with life etc. Had she
not shown one factor of death their dept. protocol probably would have required they start ACLS.
Please keep in mind I am not verified by ws as a paramedic so mods I understand if you need to delete this post.
