With dead bodies piled high and a budget that apparently falls short, the LA County coroner has quit his job. Mark Fajardo abruptly announced Thursday that he’s resigning after only two years as top medical examiner, the LA Times reports. “Ultimately, I wasn’t supplied the resources I need to perform my job duties,” he says. “Every year we made requests for positions that needed to be filled … Each year we were not supplied the personnel we need.” Meanwhile hundreds of autopsies and toxicology tests have backed up at the coroner’s office, which ties up funerals, life insurance payouts, and civil and criminal cases. “It’s nuts,” Fajardo tells the LA Daily News of the backlog. “It’s been progressing for a number of months now.”

It must not bother him too much since he’s going back to his old job as top forensic pathologist. Inquiring minds want to know how many bodies will he be on top of…
Apparently one of those basic
government services that go
down the “failed state” crapper
when the 3rd world slide begins.
I wouldn’t mind being a pathologist as long as I didn’t have to mess with dead people.

Good for him.
It’s a dead-end job, anyway.
YUP, NOT malfeasance, just NOT enough funding from the losers in the private sector.
And they’ll start processing those bodies just before processing those 1000s of rape kits that would have helped the innocent girls press charges against their attackers, whether citizens or fukcing illegal alien rat-people.
Gotta love that liberal democrat kalifornia management. Thanks, Moonbeam.
Just wait until all the Californians start to legally off themselves!
