Comair: "Second autopsies possible"

In Flight 5191's aftermath: "Some families are planning to hire private pathologists to perform second, independent autopsies, in addition to the ones performed by the state medical examiner's office." The idea would be to look for evidence that victims did not die from blunt force trauma from the crash, as officially conducted autopsies suggest, but instead survived that trauma and thus could have suffered prolonged agonies in the ensuing blaze, as Fayette County Coroner Gary Ginn initially assumed before getting the autopsy results. If an argument could be sustained that the loved ones' sufferings were prolonged, the door would be opened to getting huge additional monetary awards from defendants, aside from the millions expected to be paid anyway. (Linda B. Blackford, Lexington (Ky.) Herald-Leader, Sept. 17).
