WAYNESBURG, Pa. —
Three more men are charged for their alleged roles in covering up evidence needed into a death investigation out of Greene County.
Greene County 911 dispatcher Leon Price was charged back in June with involuntary manslaughter after allegedly refusing to send an ambulance to Diania Kronk, who was falling ill, back in 2020. Kronk's daughter called 911 but an ambulance never came. Kronk died within 24 hours after the call, according to David Russo, the Greene County District Attorney.
On Thursday, Gregory Leathers, Richard Policz and Robert Rhodes were arraigned for their alleged roles in not providing the proper evidence needed to the county for their investigation of the call.
"We had initiated search warrants back in 2020 looking for procedural manuals, standard operating procedures and directives," Russo said. "We had gotten some information from them. Then over time, we had some individuals, which we gave whistleblower status to, who came to us and told us we were not given all that information that should've been provided in the warrants."
Russo said after they received that information, they obtained a secondary warrant for the 911 center and two for the county. The warrants were executed and Russo said the information alleged by the whistleblower was found.
