4 INTRODUCTION
5 2007 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE CORONER In San Joaquin County, the Sheriff and the Coroner, are one and the same. The San Joaquin County Sheriff s Coroner Division is comprised of one Sergeant, three Deputy Sheriff-Coroner Investigators, and two Secretaries. In 2007 a Chief Medical Examiner was added to the staffing. During the 2007 calendar year, 4576 deaths were recorded in San Joaquin County. Of that number, 2532 or about 55.3%, were reported to the Coroner s Office pursuant to California Government Code Section 27491, which directs the Coroner to inquire into and determine the circumstances, manner, and cause of those reportable deaths. This represents a 1.3% increase over 2006 when 2473 deaths were reported to the Coroner. After investigation, 727 deaths, or about 28.7% of the cases reported to the Coroner, resulted as actual coroner cases with the final cause of death signed by the Coroner or his delegated authority. This represents an increase of 9.3% from The remaining 1805 cases were referred to the attending physicians for signing of the death certificates. Of the 727 deaths certified by the Coroner s Office, 470 or about 64% required an Autopsy, to determine the cause of death. Of these cases investigated, about 34% were found to be deaths due to natural causes. Of the natural deaths investigated by the Coroner, about 61.3% were heart related. Accidental deaths comprised about 42.9% of investigated deaths, with a motor vehicle being the main instrument of death. Alcohol was present in the post mortem blood in about 29.5% of all motor vehicle deaths. Suicides accounted for about 7.9% of the investigated deaths, and firearms were the instruments of death in about 34% of those cases. There were 54 homicides investigated by the San Joaquin County Coroner s Office in 2007, a decrease of about >1% over Firearms were the major instruments of death in about 72% of all homicides. There were 2 deaths of undetermined classification investigated by the Coroner. In these investigations the cause or manner of death could not be determined. During 2007, the Coroner s Office processed 101 indigent cases in which the decedents had insufficient funds for interment, an 8% increase over

13 MANNER OF DEATH
14 Definition of Cause and Manners of Death Reference: National Association of Medical Examiners Guide Cause Manner The medical reason for the death as determined by a Forensic Pathologist or Licensed Physician. The category or classification of death based on the available information concerning the circumstances surrounding a death. The Manner of Death is used only in the United States for statistical purposes and is not legally binding. The preponderance of medical and/or investigative evidence (greater than a 50:50 chance) is the standard used when determining Manner of Death. The Manners of Death used in California are listed below. Natural Deaths due solely or nearly totally to a disease and/or the 301 natural aging process. Accident Suicide Homicide Undetermined Deaths due to an act, injury or poisoning where the outcome was unintentional. 312 Deaths due to an injury or poisoning as a result of an intentional, self-inflicted act committed to do self harm or cause the death of one s self. 58 Deaths due to a volitional act committed by another person to cause harm, fear or death. Intent is a common element but is not required for this classification. 54 Used when the information pointing to one manner of death is no more compelling than one or more competing manners of death after thorough consideration of all available information. 2 As an example, the Cause of Death is Gunshot Wound of the Head, but the preponderance of available information is not sufficient to certify the Manner of Death as either an accident, suicide, or homicide. Total Indicates the total number of all Manners of Death as 727 certified by the Coroner s Office. 11

26 BLOOD ALCOHOL LEVELS IN MOTOR VEHICLE DEATHS California Government Code Section provides that the Coroner shall test for alcohol and barbiturate levels in all motor vehicle deaths where the decedent was fifteen (15) years of age, or older, and died within twenty-four (24) hours of the accident. It gives the Coroner discretion for testing to determine possible amphetamine level. It further provides that such tests shall also be performed on decedents under fifteen (15) years of age, if the surrounding circumstances indicate the possibility of alcohol, barbituric acid, or amphetamine derivative consumption. During 2007, one hundred twenty-four (124) people died in San Joaquin County as a result of motor vehicle accidents, this represents a <1% increase from Blood samples were obtained and submitted for toxicological study in about 99% of these cases. California Vehicle Code, section (a) states that it is unlawful for any person who is under the influence of an alcoholic beverage or any drug to drive a vehicle. Section (b) states that it is unlawful for any person who has a blood alcohol of 0.08% or more, by weight, of alcohol in his or her blood to drive a vehicle. Alcohol was present in the blood in about 33.8% of the tested cases. The blood alcohol level was at or above 0.08% in about 31.4% of all motor vehicle deaths, an increase of 4.4% from year Results showed that thirty nine (39) of the one hundred twenty two (120) persons tested for blood alcohol levels were presumed intoxicated beyond the legal limit to operate a vehicle in California. Particularly significant was the fact that of the tested, forty-one (41) were drivers of motor vehicles in 2007, twenty-two (22) of the drivers, or about 50% had blood alcohol levels at or above the level presumed to be under the influence of alcohol. Five (5) also had significant levels of methamphetamine. Also noted was the fact that twelve (12) of the Motor Vehicle deaths were under the age of 18. One (1) of those deaths, under 18 years of age had significant alcohol in there blood, ranging from.04% to.08%. 23

41 INDIGENT BURIALS
42 INDIGENT BURIALS Under the provisions of California Health and Safety Code Section 7104, the county of residence of any indigent is responsible for the interment. The Coroner s Office administers the indigent burials budget for San Joaquin County. During 2007 the Coroner s Office processed 101 indigent cases at a cost of approximately $46,860. This was 21 more cases than in 2006, an increase of $8,080. In 2007, the indigent cremation contract was up for renewal and went out to bid. The final contract will be awarded in The current cost per indigent decedent is approximately $ There is an increased cost for decedents that are oversized. In August of 1988, because of increased funding limitations placed on the County s General Fund, the Board of Supervisors adopted a policy of cremating all indigent dead. Exceptions to the policy are at the discretion of the Sheriff Coroner. 39
