- Share via
Santa Clara County’s chief medical examiner is facing arrest in Wisconsin for allegedly stealing books from his former employer and then failing to appear in court.
According to a criminal complaint filed in Wisconsin, Gregory Schmunk took five medical textbooks that belonged to the county. They were valued at $406.73 when he left his job as medical examiner for a northeastern Wisconsin county in 1999, according to the complaint.
Schmunk, 48, acknowledged Monday that he took the books, but said it was because Brown County owed him $2,500 for extra work that he had performed.
