Annual Report
Within Hamilton County are a number of major hospitals and trauma centers serving the tri-state area. The county is also home to the Shriners Burns Institute
which deals with patients from across the country. Consequently, there are numerous deaths in Hamilton County each year wherein the precipitating incident leading
to death occurred outside Hamilton County, but the death falls under the jurisdiction of the Hamilton County Coroner. Thus, the statistics appearing in this Annual
Report do not necessarily agree with numbers reported by police agencies throughout the county.
The Hamilton County Coroner's office is in reality a regional facility which provides forensic services to surrounding counties on a fee-for-service basis.
These services include autopsies, firearms examination, serology, toxicology and others.
Complete annual reports were not published prior to 2010.
