The responsibilities of the Coroner Division are complex. By state law it is the responsibility of the Coroner Division to inquire into and determine the circumstances, manner and cause of deaths (COD) which fall within its jurisdiction. These deaths include any suspected homicide, suicide, or accidental deaths. These also include any natural death were there either is no physician to sign a death certificate, or the physician is legally prohibited from doing so. Additionally, other certain causes of death are also mandated to be investigated.


The manner and COD inquiries may require reviews of medical records, interviews with family members or witnesses, and postmortem examinations. The forensic pathologists (FP) are doctors specifically trained in forensic pathology. The FP’s perform autopsies, collect evidence, bodily fluids and tissue for toxicology testing and microscopic study. Upon completion of these tests the FP’s analyze the results to determine COD. The COD is used to complete the decedent’s death certificate. Evidence collected during autopsies and at the scene of the death can be used for criminal prosecution as well as determining COD. FP’s are frequently called to court to testify as to the results of these examinations. The coroner division is constantly on alert for deaths which may pose a threat to public health from communicable disease or through product liability.


The coroner division’s responsibilities also include the identification of decedents. Identification may be as simple as matching the decedent to a driver’s license or other identification documents. The identification process may need to utilize fingerprints, dental records, body x-rays or DNA testing. Identifying the decedent’s next of kin, notifying them of the death and securing the decedent’s personal property are additional responsibilities of the department. In deaths where the decedent died at scene, deputy coroner investigators (DCI) are responsible for removal and transportation of the decedent. DCI’s will also obtain information from family, friends, and public safety personnel regarding the terminal episode. The DCI’s serve as the eyes, ears, and hands of the FP’s in the field. The coroner division works with numerous medical and law enforcement agencies to understand how these people lost their lives, to seek justice, and bring closure to families.


After performing an autopsy, the forensic pathologist (FP) can issue a “pending” cause of death (COD) and “pending investigation” manner of death. A death certificate (DC) listing “pending” will be issued by the Department of Public Health (DPH).

After the FP completes the autopsy protocol (AP) report, the DC will be amended by DPH to reflect the official COD and manner of death. This process can take three to six months, and sometime even longer, due to the complexity of investigation, toxicology reports, histology reports and other testing and/or investigations that may be necessary to determine COD.
