He Was Accused of Killing His Wife. Idaho’s Coroner System Let Clues Vanish After a Previous Wife’s Death.

  • Short-Lived Investigation: After Clayton Strong drove his wife’s body to a hospital in Idaho, the coroner took his word that it was a natural death.
  • A History of Red Flags: Police had previously made repeated visits to the Strongs’ home in Florida. After an officer called in adult protective services, the couple left town.
  • Another Wife Dies: Clayton Strong was indicted in murder of the next woman he married. Both women’s families say Idaho’s flawed coroner system is partly to blame and needs reform.
