Reading the Death Record — Autopsy Reports, Toxicology, and Medical Records in LE-Related or Custodial Death

Tuesday, June 30, 2026
2:00 - 3:30 pm EDT - Webinar
3:30 - 4:00 pm EDT - Optional Post-webinar Discussion (Only those who attend the live webinar will be able to join the discussion.)

This webinar will address issues relevant to both police and custodial oversight.

In law enforcement-involved or custodial death cases, the official record is composed of several distinct documents — the medicolegal death investigation report, the autopsy report, toxicology results, and medical records. Each is produced by a different part of the system, in a different language, for different purposes. Together, they should tell a coherent story about how and why a person died.

This webinar cuts through the clinical language and institutional framing to give NACOLE members a practical, working knowledge of the four document types most central to custodial or LE-involved death cases (including officer-involved shootings).

Speaker: Paul Parker, (Ret.) Executive Officer, San Diego County Citizens’ Law Enforcement Review Board; Medicolegal Death Investigator
