Andrew L. Falzon, M.D.
State Medical Examiner
In NJ, a medicolegal death investigation must be conducted by a duly certified medical examiner in all cases of human deaths that occur under circumstances that invoke a public interest for the purpose of public health, public safety and the administration of justice. These cases include all violent deaths whether by homicide, suicide or accident; deaths under suspicious or unusual circumstances; deaths of inmates of State or county institutions; deaths of infants and children; and deaths from causes which might constitute a threat to public health.
