In the GDR (East Germany) during Stalin's period running the Communist bloc, prior to about 1953 they used to execute dissidents using a guillotine in the Stasi basement. The death certificates stated the cause of death as "low blood pressure".

They knew it was wrong, they didn't want to leave any documentary evidence: this is the same bullshit, just closer to home.

So you're saying the most likely interpretation of the situation is that the minneapolis county medical examiner is like a communist secret police executioner?

That's an uncharitable read of that comment

Is that any more uncharitable than cstross's comparison with East Germany?
