First off, it's rarely the family's right to refuse an autopsy. The state needs to determine that the death wasnt in fact a homicide. If someone jumped in front of a train, the state would most certainly want to determine whether or not the deceased was pushed.
We don't live in a state, we live in a province. It might rarely be the family's right to deny the autopsy, but we're diplomats. My father works for the UN. Canada does not have the right to do an autopsy on her unless we give her permission. Renske left, in her note, that it was clearly a suicide, that she did NOT want an autopsy, like there was much left to do it on. Her body was dragged for miles. 15, I think
Second, forget the obituary, if a 19 year old girl jumped in front of a train, it would be all over the newspapers. That's not the sort of thing that happens every day. [/B]
We didn't want her in the obituaries. It wouldn't be all over the newspaper because here it happens so often that they banned it. Do your research.

Finally, if one of my siblings took their own life, I don't see myself spending time on the net trying to prove to complete strangers that my sibling had actually been killed, and not passed away by natural causes. I believe I, like the average person, would be too grief-stricken to give a damn about what a bunch of folks on a discussion forum thought.
Would you rather know the truth or lies about things? I am grief stricken, but I want people to know how she really died, not some lie. Maybe I'm just a loser. Maybe I shouldn't tell people the truth. Maybe I should join politics....
