"There is evidence that the coroner is using his public office for personal, pecuniary gain," Zappala said last month.

... in what immediately was awarded "Understatement of the Year" honors.

There aren't even any challengers. This creep has been scamming everyone for 30+ years with his "most noted pathologist" bull crap. I don't recall him ever pulling a CSI moment. He just promotes himself and has made lots of cash doing it.

I'm not sure that we are allowed, but I agree.

Don't get me wrong. I've always thought that he was a crook, but I liked him a coroner and thought that he know what he was doing. He didn't have a problem bucking the party on the Kennedy, Foster, and Ron Brown assassinations.
