King County Medical Examiner’s Office decedent lists by day

The King County Medical Examiner's Office (KCMEO) releases decedent case information weekday afternoons (excluding holidays) once an investigation is complete. Below are links to previously released decedents lists.

For each case released the following information is available: case number, name, age, sex, city of death, date of death, date of incident, incident location, type of location where incident occurred, cause of death, manner of death, and investigating agency.

• Addresses where death occurred may be listed, excluding deaths that occurred at a private residence.
• Cases are not released until the decedent has been identified and next-of-kin has been notified, or 48 hours after identification is confirmed if next-of-kin is not located, per RCW 68.50.300.
• Cases that have Cause and Manner of Death listed as "pending" will be added to the list again when Cause and Manner of Death are determined.

Please note that the KCMEO investigates sudden, violent, unexpected, and suspicious deaths that happen in King County; it does not investigate every death.
