What’s the point of an independent investigation in this? The kid got the amoeba in the lake. Do they think someone negligently caused a naturally occurring organism to live in the lake?
My guess would be the hospital, under some wild theory that they should have immediately known what the cause was and administered just the right meds in time to save him. But some people hire lawyers to speak on their behalf because they are good at public speaking and have an enforceable ethical duty to serve their clients’ interests – unlike some rando who just makes good tictok videos or does commercials.

Why does the family have a lawyer speaking for them? Who are they going to sue?
