Mat, Thanks again for your support; and your point is well taken.

Oh man. Heartbreaking. This sounds like another storm death. It seems like the death toll will only go up.
Is it odd that this is being investigated by the homicide branch, or are all cases of apparently accidental death handled in this way until/unless an autopsy reveals otherwise?
I think you nailed it. Cases where the cause of death is not immediately known are referred to homicide to make sure they were not, in fact, a homicide.
Sad story though.
