B.C.’s former chief coroner Larry Campbell takes on Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside – again

Larry Campbell hadn’t walked the streets of Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside for a long time, even though that’s the place that boosted him to become B.C.’s chief coroner, the inspiration for the TV series Da Vinci’s Inquest and then mayor for one term.
