Dr. Thomas W. Young, former Jackson County Medical Examiner, also says Parcells isnt licensed. Over the phone, he affirmed this statement he gave to Kansas City media: Shawn hung out at the Jackson County Medical Examiners office but was not trained by me. He has been representing himself in a way that is not appropriate by giving forensic pathology opinions when is not qualified to do so.
Young said he stands by that statement but would not comment further. A search of the Kansas State Board of Healing Arts Licensee and Registrant profile turned up nothing on Parcells. Youngs profile does appear, showing him as a licensed Medical Doctor in Kansas City, Missouri. The profile of Mitchell also pops up.
Efforts to contact Parcells have been unsuccessful.

I don't really care if Parcells is a fraud, which he well may be. If you find anymore, feel free to post, just don't respond to me. I'll only bother you, if I my hinky meter goes off.:thinking:
My original post questioned the "expert". I am familiar with KC area media and they just pull some hack up that likes the media exposure. It is like Mark Gergos is some kind of superstar defense attorney. He seems like an average lawyer when I see him on cable news.
I have no idea why the Brown family hired Crump and Co. I felt like they did a horrible job for the Martin family. I am not a lawyer, but I would dump all the bad stuff ASAP and work to gain trust. If you make a bunch of claims or omit facts, it destroys your credibility from the get go and I don't know how you regain it. Although, to be fair the same think happened with Zimmerman's lawyers, but I suspect most of it was Zimmerman not being very forthcoming about any potential skeletons.
