The Faulkner County Coroner’s Office is in charge of investigating all unattended deaths within the county as well as deaths that may be a result of an accident, homicide, suicide, or sudden unexplained deaths. Two things must be determined by these investigations- the “cause” and “manner” of death.
The job of the County Coroner does not end with the initial investigation. This job is one that is a constant 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. The Coroner must investigate, report, and certify deaths and must comply with Arkansas law in the performance of these duties. There are numerous daily tasks that must be completed in order to determine a cause of death including conducting an investigation concerning the circumstances surrounding the death, gather background information, medical history, evidence at the scene of the death, and any other information needed to determine the cause and manner of death.
The Office of the Coroner works very closely with multiple law enforcement agencies, ambulance companies, and fire departments across this county to assure that all information gathered in the investigation is accurate. This office also has a very close working relationship with the Arkansas State Crime Lab and the staff at the Medical Examiner’s Office.
The Faulkner County Coroner’s Office approaches all task in a professional and responsible manner. The main goal in all cases is to seek the truth that will result in the finding of cause and manner of each death. Our objective is, first, to represent the deceased and then be a source of information and answers for the survivors.
The Faulkner County Office of the Coroner is here to serve the citizens of this county and to make death investigation easier for a family to endure.
