This will allow exhaust to be released over the RV and not in your neighbors’ camping area.” The Jackson County Medical Examiner’s office said Monday morning autopsies were performed and some bodies were released for funeral services, but deferred questions about the cause and manner of death to the Lenawie County Sheriff’s Office.
