Perhaps this is an innocent mistake/ typo, but several folks continue to refer to the St. Louis County Medical Examiner as "Ms. Case." She is the Chief Medical Examiner (not a coroner), and is a physician. So, in addition to referring to Michael Baden with his professional title, I'd like to make sure everyone is aware Mary E. Case, MD, is a physician, and should be referred to as
Dr. Case, not Ms. Case. Dr. Case and Dr. Baden are professional equals. Dr. Case's autopsy is the
official autopsy, and is more thorough, and documented more completely due to photography of the body and organs in situ, pathology, labs, and wound/ bullet tracts, etc. Dr. Baden acknowledged this as well.
Shawn Parcells has no professional title, license, registration, certification, or standing, beyond his B.S. from Kansas State University in Life Sciences, and properly should not be afforded any additional title.
Some additional info on Dr. Mary E. Case, Chief Medical Examiner for St. Louis County.
She also holds an appointment as a
full professor (not assistant, associate, or faculty) to the school of medicine at St. Louis University. Second link is a profile of her from July 2014 in St. Louis Magazine:
