OceanGate, the company that owned the submersible and whose CEO Rush was onboard, has said it will not comment publicly during the investigation.Dr. Pierre Perich, a forensic medical examiner at a hospital in the French city of Marseilles, toldabout two of his cases where, in 2009, bodies were recovered from planes that had crashed into the ocean. He explained that"several phases of research and a heavy technical investment" had been required to retrieve the passengers' bodies.
