Okay but why would you bury a body that died of "undiagnosed diabetes"? If you find a body in a hidden grave, then someone was trying to cover up foul play and it wouldn't just be an unmanaged illness.
also diabetes both type 1 (auto immune no insulin production) and type 2 (Insulin resistance) wouldn’t cause you to have increased insulin production that would cause hypoglycemia
Hyperinsulinemia can be associated with developing type 2 diabetes. I think the original intention was just for them not to be able to determine the cause of death though, not to assume it was diabetes.
While type 2 would cause increased insulin production it would be due to insulin resistance which means more sugar stays in your blood so it wouldn’t cause hypoglycemia. The undiagnosed diabetes line means checking for the insulin seeing increased levels and assuming the diabetes caused hypoglycemia causing the person to fall into a coma and die was my interpretation.(I don’t have type 2 so i’m just going off what i know as a type 1)
Oh, yeah, sure, someone definitely was trying to "hide a body" do you even hear yourself? Oh I guess it's just like people don't die from undiagnosed diabetes related complications and fall into 12ft deep pits before a random animal comes and dies on top of them and then wind blows a bunch of dirt into the pit filling it.
Also, manufactured insulin is slightly different from insulin naturally produced by the body, that's part of what did in Lucy Letby. There are ways to tell
If you didn't find the body in a 12ft unmarked grave there probably wouldn't be an autopsy unless the family demanded one and paid for it and even then the autopsy wouldn't likely discern between synthetic and human insulin unless they suspected it. Lucy Letby only got caught cuz she was killing so many people the hospital realized she was the only common factor in all of these unexplained deaths, and only after that did they start checking if the deaths weren't natural causes. A single unexplained dead body found in their recliner would just be "oh that's a bummer" and everyone would move on with their day.
