Genesee County Medical Examiner

It's ok just need better understanding staff but all and all does their job

My husband passed February 22, 2016; in the midst of the Legionnaires disease crisis. I was denied an autopsy by the medical examiner. He passed while in McLaren Hospital emergency room. I strongly believe the individual standing in as a death investigator representative of the medical examiner's office was unqualified and uncertified. His name was Thomas Boaz. My husband's symptoms before his death were synonymous to the symptoms of Legionnaires. When I brought this information to the attention of Mr. Boaz, he said he didn't know what the symptoms were. He was an imposter within the ME office.😠 My husband had been a patient at McLaren Hospital which was also caught up in the Legionnaires contamination. Mr. Boaz owned a casket company. That's the extent of his association with the ME office

My daughter died 6 months ago from unknown causes. Medical examiner's office said we'd have a cause in 4-6 months. Still nothing! Insurance companies won't pay out until there's a cause and make threats to say it will go to the state. I want to know why my daughter died! I call monthly to see if they have determined the cause. Not sure what else I can do.
