Gloucester County Prosecutor Andrew Yurick today will offer new details about former Camden Parking Authority executive director Anthony Scarduzio's shooting death.
But it's unlikely he'll say anything that contradicts the county medical examiner's ruling that Scarduzio killed himself, officials said Thursday. Yurick hasn't publicly ruled out homicide or said he concurs with Medical Examiner Gerald Feigin's ruling that Scarduzio shot himself July 9.
Feigin said Tuesday that prosecutor's office investigators haven't provided him with any new information that would lead him to re-evaluate his decision about the cause of Scarduzio's death.
Feigin said he'd be notified of new evidence, if it existed, because it's his role to determine a victim's cause of death.
"It's my job to make the determination, not his," Feigin said of Yurick. "That is my job by law."
A spokeswoman for Yurick's office, Dianna Reed-Rolando, said she believed the medical examiner would have been given any new information if investigators uncovered it.
She also said Yurick was unlikely to question Feigin's ruling today.
"I really don't know, but I don't expect there to be any change," Reed-Rolando said.
Minutes before Scarduzio was found dead of a shotgun blast, he shot and nearly beat to death one-time friend Joseph Bowen behind a Washington Township ice cream shop. Bowen previously blew the whistle on alleged corruption at the parking authority, where he worked.
Bowen is home recovering from his injuries.
Scarduzio was the primary target of an ongoing state investigation into the parking authority.
