Having done a bit more reading through other sources. There should be more focus on his abdominal scar, reduced teste size and cachexia (wasting). This is a very common symptom pattern for cancer. A large portion of cancer patients die from cachexia. HIV, or a chronic disease of heart/liver/kidney are other possibilities but would have left other evidence that would have certainly been noted in the autopsy. My guess is there are some oncologists and surgeons (probably in NY) who know who this person was, but cannot say anything due to confidentiality.

Don't they have a legal requirement to disclose the identity of this person to the police for identification purposes? I understand that they can not do a public reveal, but I think the state has an obligation to keep record on who is alive and dead.

Yes, is a pattern. You don't became cachectic by a acute poisoning. I checked the authopsy but did not claim obvious tumors, tymus anomalies, no obvious signs of kidney or liver diseases. And I didn't find anything about the heart that would support a heart attack, but is soon to discard that. If it was a poison is not a haemotoxic one in my stupid opinion. (No petechias or inner bleeding, all correct in the circulatory system and most of all all apparently correct in the liver). If it was a drug it did not appeared in the analytics, so either it does not leave trace after a while or is not a common one. There was not specific medication against cancer or hypotiroidism found in the backpack. Only ibuprophen and antihistaminics I think [1]. [1] I think that is reasonable to explore at least the possibility of an Ibuprophen overdose, just to discard options. > My guess is there are some oncologists and surgeons (probably in NY) who know who this person was Agree.
