Family of NC Man Wrongly Declared Dead Sues Medical Examiner

Sounds like a nightmare, but it's true.  After an auto accident, Larry Green was put into a body bag and refrigerated.  The medical examiner dismissed paramedics' claims of signs of life from Green's "body."  He was later determined to be alive, but now is in a nursing home and has limited brain function. Green's family has already recovered $1 million from Franklin County, NC. See this story from the Raleigh News and Observer.
