I wonder how many other funeral businesses in Colorado are up to shady and shoddy work. This funeral home industry doesn't seem to be very well regulated.
It's not!
Not just Colorado but all over the place. There’s been huge scandals since it’s a big business. Seems like when they run out of money and room is when things go downhill.
This is outrageously sad .Lord have Mercy I feel so sorry for their Famlys
Terrible in Michigan too. So disrespectful!
Google crooked funeral home workers, owners etc
It’s going on all over US
Why the officer cut off at the end? He was sharing important information! Very poorly edited!
The officer was cut off because he was explaining what actually happened.
@onetuliptree The Democrats don't want us to hear the truth.
@@onetuliptree your comment made my day!
bc it’s a liberal news station that does not care about facts
@@onetuliptreea local journalist has more credibility than a local officer the vital information was already reported no need for fluff.
This is the worst reporting of news I've ever heard, I have no idea what they're talking about they cut off the officer that was telling everybody what was going on
That is what you should expect out of a company that specializes in propaganda...

Horrible ???more like a devil !!
3 years seems brutally low for a heinous, cruel crime like this. What an absolute beast this guy is! The poor families 💔
I agree. That’s what I thought when I heard it. 3 years is a joke! His actions have had inconceivable consequences for a substantial number of people. Consequences & trauma that could manifest in innumerable ways over their lifetimes & beyond to others that they hold dear. This man is despicable & deserves a sentence that reflects the magnitude of his crimes whilst also sending a message to others in his industry who perform ‘shady’ operational practices. Absolutely disgusting!🤬💔
I couldn't have said it better. This guy is a monster.
For real. People get more for just having drugs
Am I crazy for thinking that should be a life sentence??
@@deew1215 The families of the ones affected can sue in civil court. Messing with remains or mishandling them is no joke.
Creepy when those dealing with dead loved ones can't even be trusted 🥺
The explanation by reporter is so poorly done and hard to follow it is difficult to understand what she is trying to say.
About to say the same thing. Extremely difficult to comprehend.
Bad & then add her eyes on top… hav me an instant migraine ! Glad I don’t live in the Denver area & hav to watch those reporters for my news 🤪😜😱🤢🤮🤡
Made me question if I was having a stroke.
I am not one to nitpick about these things, but that delivery was honestly so bad.
Diversity hire
Tell me you're racist without telling me you're racist
So sad that people don't take their jobs seriously. It makes me sick 😮 🤨
Yeah my mom was a lunch lady... didn't give to snot's about anything. But she died and she still dead so it all worked out.
I kind of wonder about this reporter. 😏
Get well soon 🙏
What a POS for doing this to families who are already suffering.
Yet he took good care of his million watt pearly whites!
Just horrific, why isn't this guy in jail and why is max punishment only 3 years! Prayers for comfort and strength to all of the impacted loved ones.
He's white. Simple as that
These funeral homes have been out of pocket lately. Not only did you lose a loved one but you also have to worry about their deceased body. Sad and devastating. Shame on the Funeral home workers!!!
What goes around comes around.
Why can’t the reporter speak clearly? Isn’t that the Gold Standard for an on air reporter?
The reporter? She actually spoke a lot better and clearer than the police chief and the ME. She stumbled a little on her first sentence but that was it? She’s just human like the rest of us
Probably all those cement injections in her fake caterpillar lips
Maybe she’s a diversity hire, lower standards bc she checks boxes. Whatever the case she seems to have a mild speech impediment and speaks through her nose. Very nasally, and maybe her vocabulary is low, she needs speech therapy, also this other comment “ she’s just human” is the problem. Enough mediocrity! If you can’t do your job find another career path. If you can’t speak and it’s your job to clearly convey news, get a different job. Seriously why do we have to defend people all the time? Who cares about this ladies feelings. So stupid. I mean if surgeons don’t do their job ppl lose their lives, if postmen can’t read an address or map what good are they? If you butcher the news bc you can’t relay information you should be let go or fix your speech impediment. But it doesn’t help us
You mean the guy at the start who sounded like he was having a stroke?
@pg396 If you pay attention, she’s FREEZING. When you’re really cold, it makes it hard to speak.
Horrible reporting. Can no one string a sentence together?
My mother in law was one of the Penrose victims...it looks like what we were given initially was,at least partially,concrete dust.
Absolutely heartbreaking! Our world is so broken and heartless! After losing my parents and mother in law I couldn’t even fathom the pain these and other families are going through. This is all we have left of our love ones! Greed is truly destroying this world!
Your right this world has become sad but God will save us
God will save us!! This is true… the true followers of Jesus that is
Wtf he would only serve 3 years if caught. This is a slap in the face to the victims. 😮
He's not locked up😮

Cremains? What a horrible word.
I've worked in the funeral business for over 13 years, if there's corruption involved with a funeral home, you can automatically guarantee that they probably did vile things to the female corpses that they were hired to take care of as well. When i first started years ago, there wasn't a single time where handlers didn't take at least 30 seconds to grab and feel all over their private parts prior to embalming the body. It made me extremely angry to know that my own mother will eventually be defiled as well when her time comes. There's really nothing you can do considering that there are no laws in place to make cameras mandatory in every room of a funeral home
Omg! Wow! I never would have imagined that there were such sickos doing that to corpses. Thank you for sharing.
This seems to be happening a lot lately! Sad times.
Funeral directors must be extremely trustworthy because they are handling the final arrangements for the deceased. The family of that deceased person is about as vulnerable as they have ever been and, therefore, should be able to trust this person. Betrayal of that trust is about the lowest thing a person can do. There needs to be more oversight of funeral homes so that this kind of betrayal will be less likely to occur.
This seems to be happening more and more
And the family never questioned this funreal home about where the ramins were after they were creamated? Damm some family..
Exact same thing I was thinking 🤔 like okay the family didn’t get concerned when they didn’t receive the deceased ashes or body for a funeral?! Just weird
he probably filled the families containers with ashes of road kill or something...I mean...ashes are ashes right?...this guy is a corrupt individual...@@irielgordon2693
@@irielgordon2693 I know right and I think the only reason they came forward now is because they think it will be a law suit and they see dollar signs..

Shoutout to HIGGINS HILLCREST CHAPEL, IN NEWNAN, GEORGIA!!!
Sadly, my mother passed away unexpectedly in 2019. I watched her cremation (they let you watch the box go into the oven. The actual process takes hours). Im so glad the people at Higgins Hillcrest were absolutely phenomenal and took the best care of everything. I couldnt imagine something this horrific happening to my family and im so sorry for the ones affected by this.
Reminds me of the mortician family from Nashville in the late 80s. Bodies stacked on top of one another in the graves, necrophilia w/ a cattle prod, stealing corpses personal items, etc., when a baby pillow was found in the car the wife turned him in, what a scandal!
They are RELATED do to the lack of regulation! My deepest condolences to the families & loved ones of these victims
That's horrible. It makes you wonder how many other funeral homes did the same thing. This isn't the 1st case. I've been hearing about fraud and tax fraud, bodies stashed in attics. It's the families that suffer. It's a crying shame the people you trust to make sure ur loved one gets the last respects they deserve and this happens. Total disrespect. You shouldn't have to worry about this kind of thing.
I don't understand the advantage in keeping remains instead of sending them to their respective destinations. It's like getting on a bus and it won't go.
Sickening
So sad😢It's getting really bad when u can't say cremated remains,this world is getting in such a big hurry they can't keep up with burials or words.
....and you can't keep up with educated people. It is a word. Just because your oh-so-expansive vocabulary doesn't contain the word doesn't make it any less so.
They are called cremains Regenia. I have both of my parents cremains. Sad you don’t know this.
is it really sad? are you really crying?@@jaithevegan
@@replynotificationsdisabled It really is sad that we have uneducated maroons that, instead of taking ten seconds to look something up, automatically discount a word because they have a limited vocabulary.
Why is the reporter smiling?
She can tell you about the plane crash, with a gleam in her eye.
He should be locked up for more than 3 years! He’s taken the money & run! 😡😡 Disgusting creep
@wendyh3891 not sure that was part of THIS report….
What a country
Another example of why you must know the local funeral home and owner before choosing their service. And you must have an executor of your estate to make sure your last wishes are complete.
This is horrible😢
Is there no end to sleaze in the u.s.? Who are these people, and why no monitoring?
Actually, there’s no end to sleaze in this corrupt world. 🌎
Third world country now.
Why is he not arrested????
What the hell is wrong with people? Moral indecency in society has increased substantially in the last 20 to 30 years
3 years? Dear God, that is not enough time for such a crime.
"It just adds to the grief " That. 😢
People are sick. This is so scary. Losing someone you love can break you. Then to find out they have been mistreated after it’s all said and done. That enough to make a person snap. Have mercy on people and their wicked minds lord. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Why this reporter look so happy while giving those creepy news?
Botox
Why isn't he in prison?
It seems a lot of funeral homes are experiencing this. The families never pick up the remains because they never pay for the cremation or for the body to be sent anywhere else.
the owner can’t afford to pay the cremator for their services because nobody paid the owner. Then eventually nobody will cremate for them and they have this body with nowhere for it to go and no money to do anything with it. Of course the family never comes to pick up the remains because then they’ll have to pay their balance.
I keep reading the same story across the country it happening over and over
And why is this the owners fault?
It's true a lot of John and Jane Doe remains are never claimed. I think the county cornors office usually deals with that situation.
How horrible to knowingly do such atrocities. Blessings to the family 🙏
In the US, you have the right to keep the remains at home (the d.e.a.t.h must be reported) but you can keep them at home and go with them to either the burial or crematory. With cremation, the family has the right to be there and even push the button to start the process. In Japan, the cremains are not ground in a cremulator like in the US, but rather the family places the remains in the urn, first starting with the bones of the feet and working upward until the skull is placed last. YOU are their family and YOU have rights! Don't let scammers like these people Iie to you or make you worry that your loved one won't be treated with dignity.
What R U talking abt????
Funeral practices in Japan have nothing to do with funeral practices in the US. And no you don't have the right to push the button that is up to the crematorium if they allow it.

@@susanleslie4809 I'm letting people know that if they're worried about something like this happening to their loved on, they have rights when it comes to caring for the deceased. Most people believe that they have to leave the body in the care of a funeral home. They don't. They have many options, including keeping the deceased in their home and mourners can come to the house to pay their respects there. Learning about their options may bring them a bit more comfort when they're dealing with their loss.
@@RADIUMGLASS I was informing people that the funeral rituals as practiced in Japan help the mourners deal with their grief. I personally think it should be an option in the US. If it were allowed here, it would help families know that they really are receiving he cremains of their loved one so they don't have to worry that the bag of "ashes" they've been given is the wrong body or just a bag of cement powder. If they want to be at the crematory and push the button to start the cremation, they have the right to choose one where the family is welcome to participate and not the one where the operator thinks his comfort in the workplace is more important than the family's comfort in getting to say goodbye to their loved one.
@@michiganmaxedout6248death don't be afraid to spell it out
So many sick people in this world
Ugh how sick is this
Wait a minute, where is the family for the burial, cremation or whatever? How can this happen?
They arrange the funeral home to pick up deceased, straight to cremation. Then talk about a memorial service, and pitting the cremains somewhere, but gosh that doesn't come together, and the box sits at the gu real home awaiting directions, pick up or bill payments. So families are often part of the issue.
@@joywebster2678 Hmmm. The family member has to take part of the blame
@chicfini if you don't pick up mommas cremains and pay... I didn't say that was what happened here. So hmmm all you like I've seen it, and worse in working in health care and knowing Funeral home owners.
@@joywebster2678 Of course payment is due, but does the family attend the cremation or not? I know of people that got cremated and were there for the cremation because they LOVED that deceased family member. You send them off properly with respect.
@chicfini that's what called the choice of service. Many options. Have a regular open casket funeral service ( caskets for cremation offer rentals for this type of service), or more crematorium are building a space beside the " furnace" and small services can be held there, andcyes it ends with pushing the body on its cardboard covered container into the crematory. Others do as I described earlier when you hmmmmed, and have it all done without their involvement, and the " plan" is to bring the cremains in a nice vessel and do a memorial service with it, then inter it in a columburium, or whatever is culturally desired. So it's not about love as you suggest, in my experience it's about the survivors faith style. Most of the oops forgot to pick up the cremains, or do the memorial service view life as ended, no afterlife. So ceremony, ritual isn't part of their life. Sadly.
This is so sad. My thoughts and prayers are for the family members who are dealing with such an injustice. Justice matters. May peace find you all.
😔✌️❤️
My ex's father was a former funeral home director and all around deviant. She was a mess
There needs laws for cameras and 24/7 security in these facilities.. and 3yrs maximum?! Give him 10!!
Looks like a politician.
Not only is he not locked up, he's only facing 3 years at the most! That's criminal. Hopefully, with the other charges he'll get more time. Those poor families and deceased ones that deserve to rest in peace.
Sounds like a drug addiction
Despicable!
Weird....
Happened here in Maine with many remains in 1 place, a crematorium. Sad isnt the word!
Funeral homes must reorganized. The Fed need to step in and enforcing moral ethics! Asap!!
This wouldn't be an issue if it didn't cost so much to bury someone.
It went from paying the gravedigger to $20,000 and up. Ridiculous!
This stuff is happening more than we realize. The Heinz Funeral Home here in Illinois just loss it's license because of a big investigation into similar behavior. smh
Wow! This is disturbing and disgusting.
Another one?
Note to self: Don't die or plan a funeral and burial in CO.

Real lack of empathy in that lady’s delivery. She didn’t even finish her sentence when talking about the number of *people whose remains were mishandled.
I could barely follow what she was saying. Awful delivery. Made me feel like I was having a stroke. I thought it was just me but several other people commented the same.
This is so sick. So sad for the families.
😮 life in prison please ! 🤬🥺
Heartbreaking!!!❤❤❤❤
He “could” serve up to 3 years behind bars if found guilty. IMHO a 3 year sentence is very insignificant and not nearly enough punishment for such heinous, despicable, disgusting, and just wrong on so many levels of criminal conduct. smh 🤦♀️
This is why when I'm gone my ashes better be spread by a nice garden when I'm gone
That is a grave defilement of your cremains. They are to be respectfully buried.
Why does he have a photoshopped real estate agent looking photo?
Usually its a somber photo.
Dignity, empathy...
Not let's go snowboarding!
How does this happen? Crazy
What a shame. I hope these families get some solace from his arrest and prosecution. Why isn’t he behind bars?
This is so disturbing man...I've heard of embalmers doing it but the owner?
Happened in southern Indiana a few years back. The funeral director was put in jail for a couple of years.
Crimes against innocent death body from horrible funeral home in USA is worsen than war crimes. It should be considered as war crimes if any funeral home had disrespecting a dead body. Public Health, OSHA, Homeland Security, FBI must stepping up on this real problem asap!!
I don't get what the reporter is trying to say??
It's absolutely terrible. I hope he gets more than 3 years
So sick!! How appalling human beings can be so sick in the minds and souls!
The news is just so helpful the second the officer started explaining what was going on and why they cut off the story. Something like. “Money, the reason it seems was -“
This happens more than you think, especially with homeless people or people having no remaining family. A friend of mine bought a hearse with no title to use for parts and a body was stored in it for weeks without embalming or refrigeration. The smell never went away. After two years of windows down with a tarp over it, it didn't gag you, but you immediately got a strong odor of decay.
To be clear, when he towed it home, with the windows up, people were vomiting at stop lights.
Sick.... 🤢
So horrific!
Absolutely disgusting. Only 3 years???
Horrifying. What has happened to society
Thanks for giving us your time DuuuuuuvvvvvvvvaaaaaLLLLLLLL county jax fl USA.😢
Oh wow he's needs to be in jail.
We need to simplify the death industry and just move to cremation without all of these funeral home steps. A memorial service with a nice picture of the person and not a body in a casket is better. Don’t waste thousands of dollars on these funeral homes.
Oh my goodness 😢
This is very disgraceful and sickening
Did this reporter say he will only get a maximum sentence of 3 years?????!!! What a broken system.
It's just unbelievable I flipped to hear more news channel and 14 days and the first thing I hear is that he got a creepy funeral home owner with bodies in his house what the h*ll is this world coming to?
