Mesa County Coroner

The Mesa County Coroner's Office is responsible for investigating specific categories of deaths, particularly those that may involve violence, drugs, toxins, or occur under sudden and unexpected circumstances. The office operates independently from law enforcement, ensuring thorough investigations through scene analysis, family and witness interviews, medical record reviews, and autopsy examinations.

Not all deaths within the county fall under the jurisdiction of the Coroner's Office; for instance, deaths resulting from natural disease processes after extended hospital stays are typically not investigated. The office's commitment to providing accurate and detailed death investigations is reflected in its annual reports and ongoing communication with the community.
