In the third episode of our Morbid Curiosities series, we go deep into the world of death investigation with County Medical Examiner Patrice—“Patty” to those who know her best. From mysterious deaths to unexpected natural causes, Patty walks us through the science and the humanity that guide every autopsy.

She reveals what it’s really like to uncover the story a body tells—how meticulous examination and a sharp mind can speak for those who can’t. We talk about separating fact from fiction (looking at you, TV crime dramas), how her findings often bring families closure, and the emotional weight of carrying so many untold stories.

It’s a chilling yet compassionate conversation about truth, mortality, and the people who face it every day—not for shock, but for justice and understanding.
