The Newberry County Coroner’s Office relies on the professionalism, expertise, and dedication of medicolegal death investigators to conduct thorough and impartial investigations into deaths that are sudden, unexpected, violent, or unattended. These investigators serve a vital role within our justice and public safety system.
