'It's a profound betrayal of the very essence of the role and the solemn duty owed to both the deceased and their bereaved families,' District Attorney George Gascón said. Investigators first started looking into investigator Adrian Muñoz, 34, after security camera footage caught him taking a gold crucifix necklace from a dead warehouse worker's neck in South Los Angeles on Jan. 6, 2023.
Authorities subsequently searched Muñoz's desk cubicle and discovered rare antique coins that belonged to a man who died last year. Prosecutors said that the 34-year-old investigator handled the man's case. 'The theft of items, potential family heirlooms and sentimental pieces from the deceased, not only violates this trust but desecrates the memory of a loved one,' Gascón said.
