Question answered by honorarykid in Scientology

Mr_Rogers asked this question on 9/15/2000:

Is there any doubt that directing people to look at something that is upsetting but known by experts in the field to be from natural causes, is the action of a hatemonger?

honorarykid gave this response on 9/15/2000:

People can have honest differences of opinion without hate, blank24. You still sound like a broken record.

And your opinions about Lisa's death are inaccurate, too. Only one coroner's behavior is under scrutiny wrt to Lisa McPherson's death. Joan Woods, the signing coroner, just recently resigned her position as the Pinellas County medical examiner in disgrace, following her inexplicable altering of the cause of death on Lisa McPherson's death certificate from "dehydration" to "natural causes."

A group of coroners from around the country who were asked to review the autopsy report by the TV tabloid show "Inside Edition," actually supported Woods' original cause of death.

Whatever the status of these legal wranglings (which may have seen some coercive attempts at blackmail and harassment by the CoS in any case), there can be no doubt that Lisa's treatment in the babywatch was an idiotic suspension of disbelief, and complete abdication of personal responsibility by the people involved. Those Scientologists watched as she deteriorated over 17 days, and they did nothing as she lapsed into a coma, and they did not even take her to the nearest emergency room on the day she died. Instead, they drove her to an emergency room that was 45 minutes of driving time away, simply because they wanted her to be examined only by a Scientologist doctor.

This fact, along with the fact that OSA head, Mike Rinder misspoke, saying she died in the Fort Harrison Hotel during an interview for a German TV program, has led critics to the very reasonable speculation that Lisa actually died at the Fort Harrison, and was taken to a Scientologist doctor to avoid probing questions from non-Scientologist authorities.
