- BTW the coroner did not examine the body during autopsy either. From the

-
- IDENTIFICATION
-
- ...Rebecca Suzanne Bell...was identified by a Marion County
- Coroner's toe tag. Persons present for the autopsy included
- Dr. John E. Pless, Evidence Technician Jim Floyd, Mr. Steven
- O'Neal and David Becsey. Identification photographs are [*sic*]
- obtained by the evidence technician.

-
- And the law of averages would lead to the common-sense conclusion that
- a Fellow in Forensic Pathology in the county where Ms. Bell died would
- be less likely to know about septic abortion than a man who presided
- over 60,000 abortions, and hand-picked experts, picked by Dr. Curtis
- Harris, president of the American Academy of Medical Ethics.

-
- Misdirection. I ask for evidence that the doctor who did the autopsy
- report contradicted Willke and Nathanson. I am still waiting.

- Make that "the lie that their agenda..." and you are much closer
- to the truth.

-
- I do not know who you are referring to, unless it is her father,
- who put her through a long detoxification program and told her,
- "I don't want to go through this again."
-
- And who, according to Heather Clark, told his daughter that if
- she ever messed up again, he'd throw her out of the house.
-
- Guess whose side the father is on now? Not the pro-life side.
