HB 2775: Death investigations

Concerning coroners and medical examiners regarding death investigations.

Summary

Adds a medical examiner and law enforcement as additional persons (in addition to the coroner) that an individual can notify when he or she knows of the existence and location of human remains.
Substitutes the term "body of a deceased person" for "human remains" thus making it illegal to remove or conceal human remains.
