Jacko death cert breaches

MICHAEL Jackson’s death certificate was improperly viewed by at least half a dozen employees at the Los Angeles county coroner’s office, it emerged yesterday.

In some cases, the staff members, who had no role in investigating the cause of the pop star’s death, appeared to have printed copies before the document became a public record, coroner’s official, Chief Investigator Craig Harvey, told the Los Angeles Times.

“There’s only one person in the investigation of Mr Jackson who needed to have a copy of the death certificate, and that was the investigator,” he said.
