Update on Poisoned L.A. Coroner Tech.

Posted on 04/30/2012 12:07:34 PM PDT by Weight of Glory

Yesterday, I, along with others, posted a story about a forensic technician with the L.A. coroner's department, who died under suspicious circumstances. Rumors began to fly that he was killed as part of some sort of coverup relating to Andrew Breitbart. In an attempt to find some answers, I called Ed Winter. Mr. Winter is the Assistant Chief Operations/PIO. His name and number are listed on the original release of the AB autopsy results:

Mr. Winter told me that, as far as he knows, the poisoned forensic tech was NOT part of the Andrew Breitbart investigation. Just thought I'd let you guys know.

He was the forensic photographer, right? He would have to be involved.

“Mr. Winter told me that, as far as he knows, the poisoned forensic tech was NOT part of the Andrew Breitbart investigation. Just thought I’d let you guys know.’

What did you expect them to say?

“Oh yeah, that guy that got poisoned in our office was right in the middle of the Breitbart case, then he started talking about Andrew’s murder and the next thing we know, he was dead as a doornail.”

I don’t see why a guy would be poisoned by arsenic though. I have a feeling that this will called a “suicide.”

He was A forensic photographer. I'm sure LAPD had more than one.

I get it - you personally called him up?

Do you think he would be honest with you? The poisoned coroner isn’t around to say nay.

Thank you, WoG for the “official” word : / Still, incredible ain’t it, that an employee in a very high profile coroner’s office, in the aftermath of a very high profile death, is possibly poisoned unto death, and gets the “nothing to see here” treatment : |

Sigh. Prayers lifted for that poor man and his family. May he rest in peace.
Tatt
And Andrew - you live on.

Note the qualifying phrase, “as far as he knows.”

How do we know you aren't part of the disinformation team?

I take your post to mean that the coroner WAS assigned to Breitbart's autopsy.

Further, I take it to mean that this coroner had proof of murder.

Further, I take it to mean the Breitbart scratched the words OBAMA DONE IT on his stomach.

In other words, YOUR POST is PROOF that Obama killed Breitbart.

Q.E.D.

The LA County Coroner's Office has over 200 employees, scattered between the main downtown building and three satellite offices.

Apparently the dead guy was a fairly weird character who appears in the supplemental material to a horror DVD from 2005 called Chaos. Here's one blog's description:

The short, called "Inside the Coroner's Office: A Tour of the L.A. Coroner's Crypt," featured the forensic technician showing writer/director Dave "The Demon" DeFalco around the morgue.

According to one film blogger who watched the clip:

"This dude is even weirder than DeFalco...he's kind of a mix between Dr. Lawrence Jacoby and Dr. Matthew "Frankenstein" Logan. He walks us through the various crypts pointing out all sorts of stuff, like dead babies (wrapped in plastic) and dead fat people (wrapped in plastic)! ... He even shows off his "tools of the trade"...including a long handle, curved head branch trimmer and a dry erase marker!"

At the end of the video, Cormier and DeFalco reportedly discuss an upcoming collaboration called The Devil's Doorway, which deals with...

"... their theory on how true evil manifests in human beings...through methamphetamines! You see, the meth opens up a doorway to another dimension allowing demons to possess these meth-heads and then these possessed speed freaks commit brutal crimes!" link

Its also true that people do accidentally poison themselves. My 3rd grade teacher’s husband died while using a bug fogger and cleaning out another room in a small outbuilding they had.

He sat down to take a rest and that was all she wrote.

LAPD isn’t the same thing as the LA County Coroner’s Office.
