Coroner’s Report

A Coroner’s Report from the Franklin County Coroner’s Office includes:

a Finding of Fact and Verdict page

the Forensics Pathologist’s Autopsy or External Examination Protocol

and a Toxicology Report (if toxicology testing was performed).

Coroner’s reports become public record once the case is completed. Anyone may request a copy of any report. All hard copies of the Coroner’s reports are certified, our office is unable to certify electronic copies.

Anyone requesting a Coroner’s Report may choose to receive the report via email, mail, or may pick up the report in person at the front desk during normal business hours. Please indicate your chosen method to receive the Coroner's Report and enter any special instructions in the notes section of the request form. Any request without a method to receive it indicated will be mailed.

For the safety of the residents of Franklin County and our staff, FCCO has made the following changes starting today until further notice:

We are cancelling all shadowing.
We are cancelling all autopsy viewing by law enforcement and other agencies.
Funeral homes have been asked to come between the hours of 8am and 4pm or by appointment. When they arrive they are asked to stay in or by their vehicles, a staff member will come outside to assist.
We are asking visitors to call instead of coming to our office. Answers to many questions by the public can be found on our website: coroner.franklincountyohio.gov.
Please be patient. Our staff is small and if staff members need to remain home during this time our services will be delayed. We anticipate longer time delays for coroner reports and for public record requests. At this time our priority will be coroner reports to families of decedents.
