As disgusting as it may sound, you cannot sue the coroner, the police, or any governmental official or department when they are doing governmental work unless the circumstances fall into a specific exception to the law of Governmental Immunity. The exceptions include: a defect OF a public building, a defect of a sidewalk/cross walk, a defect in the traveled portion of a roadway (motor vehicles only), a civil rights violation, or an intentional act. Your fact scenario does not sound like it falls into one of those exceptions.
