Obviously, people with no relevant background who have not conducted an examination or even read the detailed report know better.

This is the essence of cult thinking. There is no need to critically examine the evidence or methodology supporting the conclusion. The answer is already known.

It is the same way that Trump supporters know that covid is a hoax and the election was stolen.

The medical examiner is a corrupt stooge, like medical examiners everywhere.
