Something just doesn’t add up.”“She was the mother of three kids,” he said. “She was a perfectionist. She strived for the highest degree of work. And in a short space of time, she moved from being a police officer to Internal Affairs, to a second-degree detective. I want her to be remembered as an officer who was loved by her peers and greatly, greatly loved by her family. And we miss her so much.”“To be called Thursday and told that she passed away, that is just shocking and hurtful,” he said. “I don’t have the facts and that’s what I need, the facts of what happened.”Michael said authorities in Colombia are looking into what happened and that the NYPD has sent someone to the South American nation. “I will request an autopsy when she returns,” he said. “I need to know. I need some independence.”What doctor said to Stone’s husbandMichael also said he was surprised to know that his wife was in a hotel and not at any recovery facility. The doctor who performed the procedure told the husband, “I’m so sorry. Your wife had some medical episode and they tried to save her”.
