Harris County to get medical coroner if bill passes
Pasadena Rep Bill Elliott plans a bill to create a Harris County medical coroner replacing the justice of the peace inquest system. He argues many deaths are ruled natural due to current inquest practices and says autopsy would be required when a physician cannot certify the cause of death. A medical coroner's salary would likely be 15000 to 20000 dollars annually if approved.
