Central KY deputy coroner charged with strangulation, assault

A former Central Kentucky fire chief and deputy coroner was arrested and charged with strangulation and assault last month. Gerald Tatum, 54, who worked as a deputy coroner for the Madison County Coroner’s Office, was charged on Oct. 18 with first-degree strangulation and fourth-degree assault with minor injury, according to a uniform citation filed by the Madison County Sheriff’s Department. Both charges were related to domestic violence. The citation said the victim had “multiple areas of bruising and scratching around her nose and mouth” and she said Tatum used his hands to apply pressure to her nose and mouth for what seemed like at least 10 minutes, impeding her ability to breathe. Tatum is a past fire chief for the Richmond Fire Department. Madison County Coroner Jimmy Cornelison, who provided surety for Tatum’s release on bond, said Tatum has since resigned from his position at the coroner’s office. Cornelison said Tatum “was a good employee for a long time.” Court records indicate Tatum was released on $5,000 cash bond the same day as his arrest. He was ordered to have no contact with the alleged victim in the case. A hearing is scheduled for Dec. 2 in Madison District Court.
