Coroner Accuses DA of Corruption
Washington - In State News, the Washington County Coroner alleges in a sworn affidavit that District Attorney Jason Walsh pressured him to file a death certificate calling the death of a baby a homicide for political gain. Coroner Tim Warco alleges that Walsh pressured him to file homicide as the cause of death after a medical examiner could not determine one in the case of two-month-old Sawyer Clark. He claims it was an election year, and the DA thought he could benefit from charging the baby’s father, Jordan, with the infant’s death. Walsh denies the allegations, he has chosen to claim a political conspiracy and claim the coroner is unfit for office.
