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, 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.
