There are concerns about how much Winnebago County’s coroner is in the office, and even the state.
County Executive Mark Harris says cell phone records show Coroner Barry Busby has spent most of his time in Florida, since he was re-elected last fall. Harris doesn’t believe Busby can effectively run the office that way, and he’s suggesting Busby resign.
Harris says people can’t try to force a recall election until next year. He says another option would be to ask Governor Evers to remove Busby from office.
Harris says Busby also fired the longtime deputy coroner, so the remaining staffers are spending more time, on call.
