GENEVA, Ill. (WLS) --
The morgue is an old building that was found to have a mold problem earlier this summer. It was temporarily relocated and the mold was removed, but when the cleaning crew left, they flipped a switch that created a new headache.
The mold remediation team didn't know that when they flipped a light switch that they were also cutting electricity to a refrigerator that contains blood and tissue samples for hundreds of criminal and civil cases in Kane County going back to 2001. The power was out for anywhere from one to four days before staffers discovered what had happened.
"(Any of them lost? Anything crucial?) We don't know if they're lost or not," said Kane County Coroner Rob Russell. "We're hopeful the samples will still be good, but I can't promise that it is."
The coroner and his staff didn't know that the switch regulated the cooler, but the wiring is symptomatic, the coroner says, of a building that was once a laundry for a monastery. Space is at a premium. When visitors must identify lost loved ones, they do so in a room that ordinarily functions as a small hallway. The push for a new morgue has created some friction between the coroner and county board chairman.
"I don't like the fact that we need a new facility any more than he does, but the people's money needs to be spent in a responsible way, and this building, I mean, it's just not a long-term solution," said Russell.
Kane County Board Chairman Chris Lauzen says the reality is a new coroner's facility is included in the county's five-year capital plan, and that the more immediate issue with the coroner is that "he overspends," won't stay within budget, has too many vehicles, performs unnecessary autopsies, and spent $1,200 on Silly Putty gifts for kids, which Lauzen calls offensive to taxpayers.
Russell says it's simple community outreach, 0.01 percent of his budget, and meant to improve impressions of an office darkened by past problems.
"For years this office has been neglected and I will continue to do what I do and if I lose an election because of it, then that's fine. At least I can sleep at night," said Russell.
There is no specific timetable for a new morgue, but the arrival of a new freezer in 6-8 weeks will allow autopsies again. They've been done since mid-June in DuPage County.

Kane County authorities must do an inventory of evidence held in two refrigerators that were accidentally turned off when crews were cleaning mold in the Kane County Coroners office last month.
Some samples may be compromised, Kane County Coroner Rob Russell said. We may have lost some samples in that snafu.
Russells staff is combing through the items stored in the refrigerators to develop a list to give to the States Attorneys Office, he said.
States Attorney Joe McMahon said Friday that he was informed of the situation July 29. His office requested an inventory of the items and the investigations or cases to which they are connected, he said.
I dont believe this will have any negative impact on pending criminal cases, McMahon said, adding that he does not think evidence in any pending murder cases is affected. He said he believes the evidence may be related to cases that are 12 to 13 years old.
But Russell said there was evidence from cases dating from 2001 to this year.

That's Stefanie Pratt's billboard ... but it's not a gang sign she's flashing.
A little break in the mailbag monotony this week. Virtually nothing about shootings, school siting, mayoral politics or construction projects.
This week we have questions about gang signs, mold in the problematic satellite county jail, an apparent voter registration snafu at Central High School, whether recyclables are recycled, parking meter revenue, that suspicious Nudo/Bambenek/Frerichs deal two years ago and votes for best all-time local restaurants and best pizza.
A misinterpreted sign
How come there is a billboard with three real estate agents and one is throwing a gang hand gesture? Is that really appropriate?
Champaign Realtor Stefanie Pratt found this question both amusing and frightening.
It says that Stefanie Pratt is the Realtor that rocks, she said of the billboard. Its a rock sign, a rock n roll sign. Its not a gang sign. If you look at rock n roll bands like Poison and Def Leppard, they say its gonna rock. Thats what that is. I cant believe someone thought that was a gang sign. Oh my gosh.
My friend Bret Michaels, thats what he does all the time, she said of the former member of Poison, who now performs on his own. Ill send you a picture of him and I from about a month ago, doing the rock sign together.
OK, but the question isnt that far-fetched. To my baby boomer eyes unfamiliar as they are both with gang signs and rock n roll signs (although I still can flash a good peace sign) that rock n roll sign looks something like the one for the Latin Kings, the notorious Chicago street gang. I can see why someone would be concerned, although a real estate agent flashing gang signs isnt a winning marketing move.
