Who the hell autopsies a person who died of a head injury by ripping open their chest?

Well, I suspect that was poetic license. But afaik I don't think that's stupid. She's a mysterious death, right? So you have to do a full autopsy to find out what killed her (whether the head injury was first, or the river was first, or drugs or something was first). I don't know which you'd do first, but cutting her open should be at least as *important* as examining the chunk of wood, as you can *see* the chunk of wood would have killed her, what you want to find out is if there was anything else. Removing the wood looked very casual, maybe she was *finished* and removing it was the end of the autopsy and the start of sewing swtuff back up?
