The Criminal Justice Living Learning Community went on a visit to the Medical Examiner's office. We had an amazing time as we got a tour through the building. Also, we got to see a skull, a body from 1936 that they have not found out who it is yet and she pulled out a body bag with a body in it from the cooler! The atmosphere was not what I expected at all. The lady that gave us our tour loved her job and told some awesome stories. She has so much respect for the families and the ones that had passed on. For example, one man's faith required music to be playing for his soul until he was buried and she actually allowed for a radio player to be placed with his body and whenever the battery died they would hurry and change it. Finally, the dogs were too cute! There are certain rooms they are not allowed in but when they were allowed to be in a room they put on a show for us. This tour showed me that even though an environment can be dark it is up to the people working there to make it a great work environment and that is exactly what she did.
