A coroner is a government official who
Depending on the jurisdiction, the coroner may adjudge the cause of death personally, or may act as the presiding officer of a special court (a "coroner's jury"). The office of coroner originated in medieval England and has been adopted in many countries whose legal systems have at some time been subject to English or United Kingdom law. The additional roles that a coroner may oversee in judicial investigations may be subject to the attainment of suitable legal and medical qualifications. The qualifications required of a coroner vary significantly between jurisdictions, and are described under the entry for each jurisdiction.
In Canada, two systems exist in investigating all unnatural and natural unexpected, unexplained, or unattended deaths: coroner or medical examiner. While the name differs, they act in similar capacities as they do not determine civil or criminal responsibility but instead, make and offer recommendations to improve public safety and prevention of death in similar circumstances.

Plot: Pancho does not speak English and just discovered his true love Bonita will not cross the Mexican border with his Compadres and rendezvous with him in Charlotte, NC. Border crossing underway sans Bonita, Pancho decides it's time to find another woman for his dreams. While serving at a non-profit benefit for Rob Hart's Houses for the Homeless, Pancho sees Charlotte and immediately sets his sights on this Southern, demur princess whom everyone calls Queenie, then journeys the impossible quest to win her love ... a complex undertaking considering a language barrier and her recent engagement to Rob Hart. What seems like a hopeless courtship, transforms into a poetic American romance - for as luck would have it, chance encounters with Queenie fill the days of both Pancho and his Compadres. But as a haughty betrayal mounts that undercover FBI agent Steve is about to expose, the question becomes whether destiny and luck have conspired to make all of Pancho's dreams become true? Although life's no fairy tale for Pancho, in this movie it's happily ever after ... for in the end, truth, love, and justice prevail ... and for our "somos Americanos" Compadres, the American way!

Cold like a crystal
Numbered hours creeping
Insanity strangles reality...
Weakened, crushed, formed
New dimensions arise
My mind becomes a fortress
Inpregnable, shut
The walls between us make the public safe...
Read my scars...see why I'm like that
Read my scars...and don't ask me why
Whisper turns into a scream
Light would burn my skin
My legs, useless instruments
My eyes, almost blind
See the sunny world outside
Ignorant of the fact
Faking shock, forgetting fast
Freedom is a gift...
My cry echoes on a naked wall
Cold like a crystal
