Cross examination of Dr. Jamie Craig
You serve as a deputy coroner in Lincoln County, correct?
And you conducted an autopsy on Jessica Bates on August 29. 2016, yes?
Did you have access to the medical history and emergency room report of Ms. Bates?
But her medical history was released from the prosecutors office, so you just didn't have access to a key piece of information that was otherwise available to the people you're testifying for here today?
So you performed an autopsy on a young girl, whose death was a complete shock considering her age and health, without seeking her medical history first?
Ok. Her medical history outlines previous thyroid issues in her family. Have you ever dealt with an autopsy case regarding hypothyroidism?
So we're supposed to trust an "expert witness" that doesn't seek out crucial medical information?
No, sorry. I did have access to the medical history
So you knew she had a family history of thyroid issues, correct?
Have you ever dealt with an autopsy case regarding hypothyroidism?
But you are familiar with the condition from your medical training and expertise, yes?
So you are familiar with antidiuretic hormone, and that increased levels of this hormone decreases the body's ability to remove water from the system?
So you would agree with me that elevated levels of antidiuretic hormone, or ADH, which is a common symptom of hypothyroidism, decreases that body's ability to remove water from the system?
So was hypothyroidism not covered in your extensive medical studies?
