LAPD: Coroner’s Official May Have Died From Arsenic Poisoning

BURBANK (CBS) — An official with the Los Angeles County coroner’s office may have been poisoned with arsenic, police said Friday.

KNX 1070′s John Brooks reports investigators are taking a closer look at the death of 61-year-old Micheal Cormier

Cormier, a respected autopsy and forensic technician who also was a photographer with the special operations response team, was rushed to St. Joseph’s Medical Center in Burbank from his North Hollywood home one week ago.

Hospital staff eventually advised police that there may be “suspicious circumstances” surrounding Cormier’s death, said LAPD Lt. Alan Hamilton.

“We have information that could potentially include foul play,” Hamilton said.

After Cormier’s body was back at the county morgue where he worked until last week, toxicology tests are being run to determine the cause of his death.

Police along with a hazardous materials team have also reportedly searched his home on Auckland Avenue.

I no longer think the lunatic left is just a bunch of mild mannered socialist loving peaceniks.

you may scoff, but I fear the terrorists are currently occupying the white house and have infiltrated all levels of society.

I fear for the lives of the 4 conservative SCOTUS justices and RIGHT thinking pundits like Limbaugh.

we have been invaded and dont even know it....

Are you people trying for satire here? No? Some morgue tech died from arsenic poison and you attribute that to Breitbart's heart attack? Have you lost your minds? Is your other universe world surrounded by purple moons and yellow air? Sheesh, next you'll be telling me that 9/11 was a clandestine fedgov planned attack. Oh right, you already did.

Where's the tinfoil hat graphic when we need it?

"What part of "Arsenic Poisoning" doesn't spell conspiracy theory to you?"

What part of your neighbor falling off a ladder or slipping in the bathtub spells conspiracy to you?

"But a very good blunt instrument to intimidate other coroners/LEOs."

You need more sleep or a Valium. You actually believe what you're writing when so many other high-profile activists/pundits are a larger target? If you can't get the drugs, try mass quantities of Bicardi or Jack if you prefer. Get some rest, dude.

If he had hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and it was known that he had a “heart condition” as reported in the media, then this was it and he WOULD HAVE BEEN on prescription meds. For certain something to slow his heart rate and prevent arrhythmia. He would have seen a cardiologist regularly. This condition is what happens to someone who suddenly drops dead with NO KNOWN heart condition. It’s usually genetic and it happens to YOUNG athletes most often. During a game, the victim suddenly drops dead. An EKG and/or an echocardiogram would show the thickening of the heart muscle. If Breitbart had this, it would likely have been known early in life, since he lived into middle age with it. Very suspicious that he had no meds in his system and that this coroner’s photog suddenly died suspiciously and may have been the one to photograph his body. They searched the photographer’s home. Did he have photos there?

How many people accidently get arsenic poisoning?

"Most adult cases of arsenic poisoning involve some amount of criminal activity."

Although I did read an article of someone who died of arsenic poisoning after eating shrimp and vitamin C at the same time. Who knew?
