The new Winnebago County Coroner is already making changes in her office.
Cheryl Brehmer says one of her first moves was to end the practice of sending bodies to Milwaukee County for autopsies. She says she reestablished the county’s relationship with the Fond du Lac County Medical Examiner’s office, and that will save money.
Brehmer supports eliminating the elected coroner’s office, and having the county hire a medical examiner instead. She says she’d be interested in applying for the position.
Governor Evers appointed Brehmer last month. She replaces longtime coroner Barry Busby, after he resigned.
