Do the Cambodian police have a "specialist" do determine cirrhosis of the liver.
Condolences to the family and friends of this man.

I don't think they do, but in this case it was a guy who was taking medication for Hep C and Cirrhosis and I believe they were quite well informed.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

Haven’t heard the word autopsy in the article. Does the single forensic pathologist in Cambodia actually do autopsies?

I was going from the source, It didn't mention any autopsy, just the deceased man's prevailing conditions. Cirrhosis can be determined by a number of external signs or factors. However I do agree that there should be more thorough investigations of deaths here. I think I wrote an article about this topic around ten years ago. Time flies and still people dies. 8-)

Mr. Kunkel,

Yes, "generally disrespectful of the dead" (and living). It would be nice if your direct and poignant reminder would be the last that was needed on CEO but I fear that will not be the case.

RIP Joe Boland.
