Roy Kronk, the meter reader who found Caylee Anthony’s bones, is facing a major problem after being fired by Orange County.
Kronk was terminated late Tuesday after failing to attend a disciplinary hearing, according to a lawyer.
“
The termination of Mr. Kronk relates to a difference of opinion between Mr. Kronk and Orange County regarding a workplace injury sustained by Mr. Kronk in the course of his job duties at an Orange County Utilities warehouse,” said David Evans, Kronls’ lawyer “This dispute arose because Mr. Kronk’s management directed him to resume work duties after his injury, and Mr. Kronk and his health care providers did not consider it to be safe or medically appropriate to resume those duties at this time.”
Evens said Kronk is evaluating legal options relating to his termination. In the meantime, Mr. Kronk is volunteering his time to a veteran’s group in Osceola County — he is providing counseling to military veterans to help ease their adjustment to civilian life.
The discovery of Caylee Anthony’s remains was a major development in the case over the toddler’s disappearance. Her mother, Casey Anthony, is charged with first-degree murder and she remains at the Orange County Jail.
Kronk continued to report the possibility of a body to 911 dispatchers. It was an embarassment for the Orange County Sheriff’s Office, which had searched the area and failed to find anything. A deputy was fired as a result of Kronk’s reports.

I think he was fired because he was costing the state some money!
No one likes to put down Kronk because he found the body. This article is about Kronk’s private life outside of finding Caylee. Is it fair game to comment on? As far as his private life goes…not paying child support gets on my nerves.
But, again, it’s good he found the body. Doesn’t excuse his private life.
I agree about child support.
