We are intrigued by, and sympathetic toward, Dr Jones’ argument; we had approached our argument from the existing case law rather than from the fundamental position that dissection without good reason is morally unacceptable. We can understand that that position is supported by the need for appropriate consent in circumstances outwith a coroner’s jurisdiction. We would agree that invasive dissection that serves no defined purpose cannot be consonant with autonomy, beneficence, non maleficence and justice.

cheap moncler This leads to my more substantive concern. That is, that grounding the argument against routine invasive autopsy cheap moncler sale in the rights to freedom of religion and/or family life risks minimising wider sentiments felt regarding the treatment of deceased bodies. I have argued (see I Jones, A Grave Offence: Corpse Desecration and the Criminal Law (2017) Legal Studies (Online first)) that it is an objective moral wrong to act in a way that is disrespectful towards a cadaver. The objectivity here stems from the almost universal commitment to the deceased body as, to quote Feinberg, a ‘sacred symbol’ of the ante mortem person. This transcends religious adherence, cultural mores and familial relationships. We only need look to the responses to the organ retention scandals to see that religion alone is not responsible for the feeling that an, albeit scientifically, mutilated body is one which has been irreparably desecrated. cheap moncler
moncler outlet store Leadbeatter and James’ findings therefore prompt the question, does the current approach of regular recourse to invasive autopsy violate wider social norms? If, as they argue, many of these procedures are unnecessary (in the sense of enabling the Coroner to discharge his duty and/or obtaining evidence to facilitate an effective criminal investigation) then it strikes me that when these autopsies are carried out, there is a strong case that invasive moncler sale outlet autopsies constitute acts of disrespect. Thus, in such circumstances an easily avoidable moral wrong is being committed against both the living and the dead. Leadbeatter and James’ results suggest that change can, and should, come from within the medical profession. My feeling is that this ought to happen sooner rather than later; pathology could do without further public outcry moncler outlet store.
