Grief is a terribly confusing thing.

There is a bit more substance to it than that.
I was of a similar view initially but when a state pathologist states that an autopsy, especially for a very high profile public person, is wholly inadequate and that his hands were bound then questions are naturally going to be raised.

Indeed. We may never know what happened with Sutherland.

My God, it sounds as though that first autopsy was a complete joke

It does sound a bit like a grandstanding pathologist throwing his weight about and trying to show how much more "professional" he is than the competition.
He seems to concede that the hand binding was "loose"...

Hi gents,
no matter who is right or wrong, what an awful thing for the family to have to go through.... when someone is dead and buried they should rest in peace. How sad for them to have to go through this.
Whta's happened now, for all of us who read that - is that a "tragic loss" has turned into possible murder with dark undertones. If they prove to be correct then fair play to the man who pushed to find out the real truth...... but if it is all unheralded, then what a sad process to have to go through only to end up with the same conclusion.

i imagine many people that do this are so low, or drug or drink induced at the time that they do not even give a sh*t. In fact most probably don't know that the quickest way is the neck break. It must be nigh-on impossible to achieve with make-shift belts and bedsheets etc from household fittings.
