Who is a "coroner"?
A coroner is a public official responsible for investigating deaths that occur under certain circumstances, such as those that are sudden, unexpected, or suspicious. Coroners work to find out the cause and manner of death, which may involve performing autopsies, reviewing medical records, and gathering evidence from the scene of death. They collaborate with law enforcement agencies, medical professionals, and forensic experts to gather information and reach conclusions about the circumstances of the death. Coroners play a crucial role in making sure that deaths are properly documented and that any necessary legal or medical actions are taken.
