You cannot even release the amount of deaths that were examined or autopsies performed? Or the manner of deaths for those examinations?

Suncerely,

Claudia Cramer

Thank you for clarifying. May you give me the number of homicides, suicides, and accidents that are were examined or had autopsies performed from December 1, 2020 to June 1, 2022? Okay would it also be possible to include the cause of death such as motor vehicle accident or gunshot wound?

Sincerely,

Hello Ann'e Waisanen,

Thank you for the data you have given me so far. Would you tell me the number of homicides related to firearms, sharp force injuries, blunt force trauma, poisoning, suffocation, and other miscellaneous causes? Is it possible to get the same set of data for suicides as well? The number of suicides related to hanging, firearm injuries, blunt force trauma, overdose/poisoning, and other miscellaneous causes? Also for the Jan-Jun 2022 data, would that be available by Jan 2023?

Sincerely,

Claudia Cramer

Ann'e,

Thank you for the help you've given me so far. I appreciate your time.

Regards,

Claudia Cramer
