DESCRIPTION
This proposal amends the law that provides for procedures that County Coroners must follow when investigations are conducted that would determine an individuals death.
Currently, jurors are responsible for determining if a person died as the result of a felony. This act would also require jurors to determine if the felonious act was justified. Coroners are empowered to issue summons for evidence, documents and materials of substance. The jury may view the dead body by photographic, electronic or other means.
This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
