Obese corpse a problem for coroner's office

Obese corpse a problem for coroner's office
By Kristin Bender, STAFF WRITER

OAKLAND -- A day after summoning a crane to remove the body of a 700-pound
West Oakland man, Alameda County coroner's officials Thursday were trying
to figure out what to do with the corpse.

Supervising Coroner Frank Gentle said authorities have not been able to
find any family of William Lindelof, who died at a care home on West Street
about 11 p.m. Tuesday. He was 49.

Gentle said the man's parents, believed to be from Alameda, are dead, and
no relatives have been located.

Because of his size, Lindelof does not fit in a standard incinerator used
for cremation or a standard casket, Gentle said. The body remains at the
coroner's office in downtown Oakland.

"We are having trouble figuring out what to do," Gentle said.

A spokesman from the Casket Showroom in Fremont said he had never heard of
a casket that could accommodate a man that size. The company's standard
caskets are about 3 feet wide, and Lindelof was much wider.

Officials said Lindelof had been complaining of chest pain and shortness of
breath before he died Tuesday.

The cause of death has been determined to be acute and chronic congestive
heart failure due to massive obesity, Gentle said.

On Wednesday, coroner's officials used a crane to remove the man's body
from the care home. Once in the coroner's van, officials called on the
Oakland Fire Department, which brought in a cargo net and helped transport
the man into the morgue.

could someone with more historical perspective than me provide some
info as to how the NG misc. consumers is constantly hit with
contentious cross-posts about obesity. It's been going on for what
seems like forever. Every time I filter out the usual suspects
somebody "new" lie Jean C appears on the scene.

Well Jean C is a real human and her forger, NR the ****, is not. He
is forging her good name to deliberately troll you.

A grassroots efforts is being made to identify him and expose that
information around the world. Once that happens you will not be
bothered again.

Yes, she is. And like a million monkies at keyboards, trying to eke out
the entire works of Shakespeare, it should only take...well, never.
She'll never expose anyone.

HOWEVER! Lady Vet was just outed as being the forger behind the Jean C
forgeries. Her IP addy was traced and logged. Case closed.

IOW-Her "trying" really involved her cross-posting and annoying as many
ng's as possible.

I hope this clears up any confusion you may have.

Bitch.

We (MFW) have been getting them for quite a while. My pet theory is that
the trolls are hoping we'll join them in abusing the SSFAers. Do what I
do and filter out as much of it as possible, 'cause I don't see any end
to it.

Why misc.consumers? I haven't a clue.

Thanks. That is the best possible thing you can do, and a very mature response,
I might add. Please keep up the good work.

If more people would do that, fat people could go on about their business and
stop wasting defending themselves.

How is it possible to trace someone who lets say is using like lets
