mortuary technician (diener ) assisting/present during the legal authopsy

This is the person who assist the ME. He or she helps with the washing out of intestines, bones, preserving tissue samples, etc.

At times, when the set up is small, the diener takes care of this too. But, in larger set ups, the task of the diener is limited to cataloging the bodies, retrieving them when requested and keeping the coolers sanitary. He or she also deals with the funeral home attendants, I believe.

I hope that this is what you are looking for.

I am not sure that I have ever seen the Dutch word "badbroeder" used. It is not a term I could find. Misspelling perhaps?
Note from asker:
in a witness statement this person describes himself as a badbroeder
