"I wonder what brand of BCD he was wearing and if an "autopsy" could be done on it."
Examination of the dive gear after an accident is SOP for the coroner's investigation. We do it at Reef Seekers for the LA County Coroner (and produce a written report and analysis). I know Ventura County does the same, but I don't know what shop they use or how they disseminate that information to the public.
