Why is it whenever a news report on the radio tells us that a body has been found somewhere, they always finish with "the Gardai and the state pathologist have been informed"?

I would like to think they would have.

Would be a bad way for them to work if they had to discover there was a dead body lying somewhere from radio news reports. I would hate for them only to be finding out about it at the same time as me.
