Bulloch County Coroner Jake Futch said Wednesday he plans to run for a fifth term in office. With a background in funeral services, he has served as coroner for the past 16 years, having been first elected in 2000 when he ran against deputy coroner Jeff Smith after the previous coroner decided not to run again. He defeated challenger Darlene Harville in 2004, and ran unopposed in the past two elections.
