PUEBLO, Colo. (KOAA) — On Tuesday, the Pueblo County Commissioners named the future Pueblo County Coroner.

During the regularly scheduled commissioner meeting on Tuesday, the pick of Dr. Gregory Grahek was made as the commissioner's final decision.

This comes after former coroner Brian Cotter resigned following the discovery of decomposing human remains at his private business, Davis Mortuary.

Dr. Grahek was selected from five finalists who applied for the position following Cotter's resignation. Dr. Grahek won the job after two of the three commissioners selected him for the position.

While he has been selected as a finalist, Dr. Grahek still needs to accept the appointment, get fingerprinted, and a formal resolution will be made to the county before being sworn in as the coroner.
