Quizplus · Accepted Answer

It is the role of the coroner to conduct official investigations as to cause of death.
A coroner (also known as the medical examiner) is an official that works with law enforcement in a local jurisdiction. The role of the coroner is to determine cause of death in situations where death is unknown or suspicious in nature. The coroner is not involved in preparing the deceased for internment. Pastors and priests are religious officials who would oversee a funeral proceeding and a mortician prepares a body for burial.
