Oklahoma. (smh) The medical examiner's office has been in a state of constant chaos at least since I moved here in 1991.

much more, with a picture, at the link aboveNoah Osborn, a 5-year-old, refused to go to sleep - playing with a flashlight after being put to bed at his grandparents' house in Tulsa. ---
Steven Osborn said his son was full of energy when he made Noah turn off the flashlight and go to bed.
"He wasn't sick. Didn't have a fever. He seemed perfectly fine," Osborn said. "I remember getting onto him because he was supposed to be asleep, and it was late, and he was making shadow puppets on the wall with the flashlight Grandpa had given him."
In the morning, they found Noah's body lying still in bed. He'd been dead for hours, and there was nothing they could do to bring him back.

While they wait for answers, Osborn is challenging Oklahoma lawmakers to improve Oklahoma's Medical Examiner's Office - saying seven months is too long for grieving families.
