A New Jersey morgue attendant who shared confidential details about the deaths of NHL star Johnny Gaudreau and his brother, Matthew, in a group chat with fellow hockey players has officially lost his job for good, after state officials upheld his firing following a lengthy legal battle.
The Gloucester County Medical Examiner’s Office moved to fire Connor McGlynn, who worked as an assistant at the Gloucester County Medical Examiner’s Office, in September 2024, but he appealed the decision. In December 2025, an administrative law judge recommended a lesser penalty of a six-month suspension. However, the Civil Service Commission ultimately voted 3-2 in February to uphold his dismissal, with records of the decision posted online in Thursday, the Courier Post reported.
