Year-end numbers from Coroner Karl Addis

In the year 2018, the office of the Oconee County Coroner handled 781 calls. That amounts to more than two cases a day for which Coroner Karl Addis had responsibility to respond and handle. In the middle of the calendar year, thanks to funding from the county, Addis added his first, full-time assistant. The 781 calls, from January through December, break down into a number of categories—such as natural deaths, homicide, and traffic fatalities.
