@Honour Youngren of course!! Because when he is dead he will care if the coffin is cozy while he liquefies... hopefully he wont get fluid all over the silk laced pillow. If he does he can atleast lay there and take solace in the respect that people have for him. The shit that people believe!!
@Honour Youngren im very aware of the argument at hand. And thank you i enjoy being sarcastic and funny especially when people are deceiving themselves. The fact of the matter is that after a person dies they are gone.. atleast physically anyways (what you believe with regard to what happens after is independent) the body completely breaks down into its natural organic material. For the loved ones left behind its sad, so they do what they do( have elaborate funerals, going so far as to put themselves in debt, mausoleums, burial, take up space and land) my question is why? Rationally and practically there is no reason. Its like when people write to a dead friend on facebook and post it on their page.. as if the dead friend has facebook access from where he is? Maybe he does maybe he doesnt but if thats the case then why not just say it aloud to the person or does the dead friend only get facebook access?Independently of all this, in this story all the loved ones have either died, dont care, or dont have 8,000 dollars for the move. So my question is to whom does all this matter? It would actually behoove them to take the bones of these deceased and grind them up( as they do when they cremate some one.. they say cremation but really what they do is they incinerate the body and the bones left over are then grounded up, those are your "ashes", a nice buzzword for the christians) and scatter them in a forrest, maybe even plant a few trees over them, atleast in this regard their organic material left behing is being useful to the earth. In tibet they have a practice that is known as sky burial.. in tibet wood is scarce and so cremation was usually reserved only for the high lamas. Most other people would have a sky burial.... where the dead person is cut up and then left out usually by a mountain for the vultures to feed on. Hence sky burial as the vultures fly away taking a piece of the person with them. In this way they are feeding mother earth and all of her creatures. And in the tibetan tradition the person during the period of bardo thodol ( 49 days and 49 nights after death)has either realized enlightenment or has to reincarnate again. The main point is the emphasis on non attachment. Here everything is about control and attachment going so far as to wanting to be in control of ones body far long after they have been dead.. letting go is better, probably both spiritually and practically for the earth.
And the concept of respect should apply mainly to the living, but can extend to the dead if the people alive knew them or remember them. An existential question.. what happens when you die and when all the people who knew you die? Is it as if you never existed? An objective or even subjective experience of you no longer exists. The "you" can not be found anywhere on this earth. In which case when people respect the dead what are they respecting?
@@rrbabygirrl4822 yes, that's true about what you're saying... However, the families paid the funeral owners the monies to handle the remains with respect... Would you want your body to be abandoned like this?
Who is supposed to PAY for the upkeep for eternity YOU? Taxpayers? This style of burial is ridiculous. You can't take it with you that's why hearses don't have luggage racks. It WON'T give you your so called eternal rest. Cremation is the only way it should be done instead of wasting manpower and real estate on A WORTHLESS ENDEAVOR. ASHES TO ASHES, DUST TO DUST. It's a total waste of money making funerals a multi billion dollar business. This AIN'T ancient Egypt. Even Tutankhamun's grave was savaged and stolen.

They paid hard earned money to be taken care of. I will not judge you (like you did me), because the Bible tells us to "judge not lest ye be judged". However, I would ask that you be a little more polite to strangers because His word also says to be polite to strangers because we sometimes entertain angels unaware.
@Ted's Back Appreciate your reply. Well it is a bit burdensome and expensive for me. May I see your private pictures and make s definite decision. Thx in advance. Best regards, Greg
I work at a cemetery which is over 100 years old. Our cemetery is an endowed cemetery meaning that a certain percentage from the sale of the properties goes into a fund that is meant to take care of the cemetery grounds long after the cemetery is full. It is also a deeded cemetery and property deeds are issued for the properties (gravesites) at the time of purchase. The burial records at the cemetery are recorded in 4 different places so that if something were to happen to one set, there are 3 more. We also have a mausoleum and it is heartbreaking to see this one damaged and abandoned. We strive to honor every life.
@Nevin Reid I do not work at this cemetery, I just want you to know that. I was an Administrative Assistant for 6 years working as a record keeper and customer service. For the last 4 years I have worked as maintenance, groundskeeper and gardener. I maintain grave and niche spaces along with headstones and gardens. I have seen many cremated remains, not so many non-cremated remain.
@Nevin Reid at the cemetery I work for, the caskets are in individual crypts, surrounded on all sides by cement slabs. Kind of like shelving. The fronts of the crypts are granite with bronze lettering
$6,000 to remove a box from inside a hole in a wall in one place, move it to a another place, and place the box in the hole in the wall there? Wow, I'm in the wrong business.
It's much harder than it sounds. There could be demolition work that needs to be done to access the body, need to examine the body to ensure everything is there, new caskets, and other costs. $6,000 is actually cheap for the amount of work that might need to be done per body.
@SuperGoldnut this is why I feel it's better to just let us return to the dirt, properly managed of course, to become fertilizer for the soil. The fact that almost all of humanity has been trained into denying the inevitable and trying to preserve life as much as possible by fixating on the shell that will be unoccupied when our consciousness leaves it is appalling, this is something that should have ended with the Egyptians because we can't take it with us, or return it to later, no matter what you believe in. so it serves absolutely zero purpose to the person that is deceased and seems counterproductive to the loved ones in bereavement who want to move on with their lives to have all of this infrastructure to hold onto a corpse, that's meant to biodegrade.
It often puzzles me why anyone would want to be buried in a mausoleum, building don't last forever and someday all those bodies are going to need moving, that is a job I won't wish on my worst enemy.
The Judge in this case seemed to do all the wrong things , especially having the names and documents of people laid to to rest in the mausoleum destroyed ! Why ? Sounds like the judge is trying to keep the State and city from having take responsibility ! It sounds very crooked and disrespectful !
It's prime real estate. Judges are appointed. They have to grease the pockets of the politicians that helped them get their position. It's a nasty business.
The fact that it’s been almost three years since this video came out and still nothing has been done it’s crazy to me. Humanity has gone down the shitter. And I say that as a 22 year old. I’m scared for the future. Don’t even want to have kids tbh
The mausoleum is way older than 20 years that's just how long it's been abandoned. The mausoleum was opened in 1926 so 6 more years it will be 100 years old.
Buildings of any sort really start to deteriorate very quickly as soon as ventilation shuts down and moisture begins to accumulate. We don't even consider how much opening and closing doors an windows, and having operating heating and cooling systems in our homes protect them from The damage caused by dampness. When you find a home or office or school building that's been shut with no airflow for only a decade or two you find it's already falling apart.

5:05 its nice those people are vets and they did great things for all of us, but many others who werent in the military are not worth less cause they werent in it. and deserve to be treated with respect the same. they are people.
I like the new idea of being cremated and then your ashes put in an urn with the seeds of a tree. That way instead of tombstones we could have a forest
Many of these bodies have no family left. Families move away or they too die. Then it probably costs a few thousand dollars to move the bodies. Do not judge them too harshly.
The place was fenced off and closed. Relatives are unable to visit. One lady had her father's casket removed and place somewhere else, but not everyone can afford that. They shouldn't have to.
@@donnahobson9263 Depends on how much value they place on their loved ones. And in regards as to who should pay if the deceased owners didn't have funds in their estate who do you suggest pay for the disenterrment and reburial?
Oh yeah it's it's ridiculous that the vanity of mankind would make us try and use frail man-made construction that will not last for eternity to try and save the shell of a person that won't live forever. it's like buying a wrecked 57 Chevy and spending the next 10 years trying to get the paint perfect, and the frame is twisted it's literally Insanity on the species level.
I see it all the time, destruction of human remains, graverobbing, destruction of graves, disrespect of the war dead, opening graves and letting passers by see and smell it, summer corpse stench... you name it, I've seen it. Must be because I live next to a graveyard...
I came across two abandoned or what appeared to be abandoned cemeteries in my life. They were vandalized. Some above ground graves were open with remains exposed. Some under ground graves dig up. The authorities handled the situations. Idk much of what ever became of this but I thought it was extremely disrespectful to the families as well as the deceased
That is beyond disturbing in so many ways. From the neglect from the city or state to the thieves of those whole stole from the dead. Its one year later so I hope all is fixed
Why in the Good Lords name would a judge order records on the decedent's be DESTROYED??? That is absurd and INSANE! What is it they are wanting to hide in Rhode Island government about this fiasco? The veterans being desecrated? Something stinks here, besides the mausoleum. I hope the spirits of the dead torment and haunt this IGNORANT ass judge!
RI is a state where 100 people burn to death in a firetrap nightclub-and the owners get 6 and 9 months in minimum security prison. Corrupt to the core.
Get some inmate trusties from the county, state or federal level. Inmates love to work it makes their time go by faster. You have to give them the proper equipment, training and food. They will get it done in little or no time. Contact the prison officials.
@@criptidfaye many inmates like to work. It kills their time and gives them something to do all day. Sure they money isn’t ideal and isn’t “fair” at all, but at the end of the day, the opportunity to get out of the same four walls and have a task to do to kill time is a commodity in prison.
People in prison are there for a reason... you don't get sent to a PRISON for being a good person... and no it's not slave labor, it's very low paid labor. Slave labor would entail no money whatsoever, no food if you didn't do a perfect job, and constant berating and beatings...

John Smith I watched a dateline episode where a daughter tried to solve her mother’s unexplained death. They exhumed her 30 years after death and the coroner gave the daughters the ring her mother’s corpse was wearing. And she’s proudly wearing it. I know way too much about human decomp to ever wear a ring buried with my dad. Blech!!!!
To be honest, I personally feel that the morticians should collect any type of jewelry from the deceased before the casket is closed, locked and allen wrenched shut forever more. The jewelry should then be returned to the living relatives and kept as a keepsake to be passed down to the next of living relatives so on, so forth. Jewelry should NEVER be buried with the death under no circumstances. Should be made a law.
@@zombiemom6701 There was an exhuming of Lee Harvey Osweld who had a gold ring and a ruby setting that I read about. And at the time the former wife of Osweld got the ring and gave it to someone else involved in the exhuming of his body, and they really didn't want it. Probably put back in the newer metal casket they gave him before being buried again. This exhuming was to prove that there was no Soviet spy, and that this truly was Oswald in that grave. This happened in 1981, I believe.
When a judge destroys records of this importance, it just tells you he's good at covering up the worst of worse situations. Just imagine the things he let slip through the system that he should have never allowed.
This is terribly wrong. When these people were living they paid for their mausoleum and to have their loved ones in under the same roof. To have their resting place disturbed and vandalize is very disrespectful and helps depreciate the value of ones life and death. I was thinking about getting one of these for me & my family. What a disturbing realization to see their grave disturbed and separated from family. That's the purpose of purchasing a mausoleum and their expensive.
It actually happening with many cemetery's. The people who own or operate the cemetery pass away or move on and no one is taking care of the site anymore. Many of them are considered closed and no longer doing burials so there really isn't the need for anyone to work on the site anymore. It sad but no one can afford to take care of the site anymore and it becomes decayed and dangerous. I was reading that it takes about $400-$3,000 per grave each year to maintain a cemetery. If you have 10,000 people buried there, that is $4 million-$30 million in costs each year. That doesn't help you when you have people from 1670-2020 buried on the site. Many lawmakers have tried to get state and federal money to maintain these sites but there is a lot of opposition and red tape with that idea.
Yes they probably did, but you're forgetting upkeep. For a cemetary at least, there is mowing and prepping of new burial plots, etc. HOwever, it should be required that mosoleums, just like businesses, have to have a type of "life insurance" that would cover the mosoleum if the owner's pass away (like in this case) and a successor is not named. I would think that if the previous owners had some sort of "insurance" for the mosoleum, the $3m cost to move the bodies would not be a discussion and would have been done by now.
If you saw the entire cemetery, most of it isn't maintained and certain parts of it are full of garbage that people illegally dumped there. A World War II vet was buried in a hole in the ground and his grave had a whole pile of miscellaneous trash placed on top of it.
LOL I know that right. Look at what happen with Cabelas not to long ago. That high of sleaziness abruptly cost many people their jobs across the country.
@@dfelixrx7 I would but Im not that type of guy to dig into all the legality's and the who what where when and whys of it all to do such a thing, that is for someone who is either personally invested in the situation or someone with the time and know how to get it done for a situation such as this and even better someone with an internet platforms who could get the word out. I have no social media platforms, youtube commenting is as close to social media as I care to engage in. Ive donated to gofundme before but that is far as I go other than suggesting it here to possibly give them an option they had not thought of before.
@tutje Hola you can't rely on the government for anything and nor should you. But what I was talking about was a voluntary donation through gofundme, if the local and the state government are doing nothing like in this situation if someone connected to this situation was to set up a gofundme then its possible to get the funds to get this done from good people willing to part with a buck or two to help out. Its basically what gofundme was set up to do.
This is absolutely unconscionable! Money or not, someone, somewhere, needs to step up and get to work in this situation. Everyone needs to get together and tend to these people that were layed to rest. This is horrible.
It’s true, I did an insulation project at a mausoleum that had AC unit blown off in massive winds. I was in the attic and kept getting nauseous from the odor. My clothes smelled like death. Sad, but that cemetery stepped up and made all repairs very quickly to their mausoleum. After I witnessed that, I decided to be cremated. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
I never imagined disgrace like this in a land of abundance. I hope we all have a peaceful resting place and avoid anything like this . So heartless I can’t believe this ever became so dysfunctional. I sure hope it can be somehow resolved .
End of the day it's not his, nor any other wealthy Americans, job nor place to do that... it's a governmental issue that will have to be resolved through the unfortunately painstakingly slow grind of federal or state legislation.
@@fullcircle8231 And this is why Amazon should be paying billions in revenue taxes. Struggling municipalities across the US are left with no general funding for death services and up keep. It also happens due to corruption and/or good generational funeral homes trying to make best with what they can. Death is a business and when it becomes unsustainable, you get this atrocity. There is a fiduciary responsibility with any funeral home, cemetery land holdings, etc that need to have more strict regulations and contingency backup, monetarily by county, in accordance to need or lack of funding by deceased payments to inter. It's almost like a ponzi scheme. You have to get more investors (dead people) to keep the fund going.
These are NOT unclaimed bodies …these are bodies of people who payed to be layed to rest for eternity..thinking this would be there forever resting place.. I used to want to be put in a mausoleum but I’ll stick to being cremated now.. I want my forever remains to be respected.
For those saying you are buried in perpetuity, you are not. In modern times, you only have the rights to the plot anywhere from 70-100 years after the last time you were visited. Then your body, within law can be dug up and placed somewhere else as you are forgotten. We are only alive as those who remember us. So cherish your loved ones, for you live on through them.
the condition of this beautiful place of rest for the Dead at Roger Williams park has made me quite sad. how can there be no care years after . Growing up in my youth and attending Brown and Johnson and Whales Uni . I used to tour this Mausoleum . The History is rich in this building and to see from when I went there to tour the plaques of the loved ones passed away with out respect just has sadden me . why would a judge want the records destroyed . what a shame that building was majestic . when I saw the news the Disrespect for the dead in the History era that they were laid to rest to where it is now just angers me that people would break into such a beautiful place and destroy it with no fear . how sad . I hope the issues were resolved . I used to be a place of silence and peace for me when I lived up there so close to the Park . I can not believe that the State of RI would charge to have the bodies removed . and the sadness it brings me that each person placed to rest has been disturbed . does the state of RI not have any respect now for the historic land marks any more and the Dead have been disturbed they chose to be buried and left to rest in peace no Respect for the people left there to rest in peace just destruction !!!!!!! .
Why on earth would someone order records/books destroyed? It was a record of who was buried there. If no one is claiming the bodies after a period of time wouldn't it be cheaper just to cremate the remains rather than rebury? The cremains could be placed into a large burial plot with a plaque showing the remains buried there. The fact that the place was desecrated is beyond pale. I understand wanting a mausoleum burial, but leaving expensive jewelry and such is not a good idea. As this video shows, crypts can be broken into. My uncle left a 25K diamond bracelet with my aunt when she was put into a crypt.
At the very least those records should have been donated to a genealogical society and any relatives wanting that information would be told who has it.
mike b exactly. My great grandfather died in 1916 and was buried In Philadelphia with his wife and infant daughter. In 1950 they were dug up and taken to Chester county pa because Philly built a strip mall where the cemetery was. But now there’s no records about where in the cemetery my great grandparents may be. It’s upsetting.
In the UK we have very few mausoleums. These mausoleums are businesses in the USA and like all businesses they can fail. This then leaves the bodies abandoned and vulnerable. I feel it's a real disgrace.
The state/city government ignores the issue because they don't want to spend the money, but they will be the first ones to want the income from the sale of the property and the taxes when something else is built there. Typical!
Frank C I have a friend whose mom buried in Florida had to be moved because of rising water. When she went to see the grounds, it was practically a swamp. She freaked! No one told the families until it was almost too late. It’s evil
I mean most “family graves” are forgotten about after a hundred years or even less sometimes. They even said at the start the last of the family had died. Most graves are only leased for a number of years anyway. At the end of the day these body’s will eventually “disappear” anyway, and the body is just a shell
@@morganm5370 yes somebody finally said it, trying to preserve bodies at all, is just against biology.

PAKTRA PRODUCTIONS well even with modern day embalming the body will still decompose, and can sometime happen faster once the body has been buried. Either way a body will eventually decompose in most if not all ground burials.
Even though the body is a shell, it is still very important for those left to be with their dead loved ones and to say goodbye, viewing a dead loved one is a very important part of the grieving process for many, so washing/laying out and slowing down any bodily changes for that is important, but that’s what funerals and viewings are for. Once the body has been buried, that’s the end really
This is what makes me so angry! They charge families too much money to go through that. Even the owners knew ahead of time they weren't going to take care of that masolieum!
I feel for the families, their loved ones are just sitting there, being vandilised by morons. I hope something can be done so these dear people can rest in peace once and for all. To the whanau (family), Aroha me te awhi Ki a Koe, Love & Hugs to you
$6000 to remove/replace EACH body? huh? hire some unemployed people from a rehab facility to remove the caskets, put on a truck, take to cremation facility, process them, put in urns, notify last of kin (if no records then put notice in newspaper etc), all unclaimed urns will b disposed of within 90 days. end of problem; the building can be cleaned up, renovated, all gravesites, headstones removed, that field covered over. made into a beautiful family park for picnics etc.
There are a few people who make recent videos here UA-cam. Unfortunately, it still looks like this or even worse. There are more caskets on the floor, more trash littered around everywhere.. it's unbelievable. Nothing has happened since this video.
This is something that seems so far-fetched that most people would not imagine it happening. So sorry for the families that have to go through this and also to those who were expecting a peaceful eternity.
It’s now a year after this report and I’m praying that this issue has been dealt with. So very sad for those laid to rest there. And what kind of person would disturb their resting place to steal from their caskets????? 🤬💔
Those revolting vandals and grave robbers who have desecrated these crypts are nothing but animals to interfere with the peaceful rest of the dead. I hope that they are haunted every single night of their lives until they return what they took and own up to their what they did. Seriously - Curse them!
Rhode Island IS the smallest state in the USA....SO....do a "burial at sea" if their families do not care to visit their deceased. Shame on the families and the City Council.
His remains need to be tossed in this decrepit place and not allow his name to be recorded in there. Why would he order the records to be destroyed? He is a demon.
There’s no way that a stone building is derelict the drone footage makes the building look in incredible good condition. Even the roof look great. Abandoned yes derelict absolutely not. Theses people need to be shown some respect.
Absolutely shameful!!! Don't these poor deceased people have family left anywhere? I'd shame them first!!! Why can't they just be buried on the grounds at the same Cemetery? It's time for a hero to step up!!!
I got a fine in my semi truck driving down I-95 in the third freaking lane,and the state is using highway robbery with toll collecting, where the heck is all that money going to?
While not the best of solutions, I would think examining the idea of putting a sarcophagus over the structure might be more cost effective and eliminate the need to remove the building. Making the new structure one without doors but adding reasonably well done trim could suffice. A placard for each person could be paced on the outside walls with a large one telling the story of the facility. I know it isn't the best solution but it is one that could be completed rather quickly and one that would require less maintenance while containing the environmental and health concerns.
Agreed. Either they need to be owned by the state or the owners should be required to have some sort of insurance to cover the costs of either relocation or to provide for the places when the owners pass away (if a succession plan is not in place).
This is so sad and so disrespectful to the ones that are laid to rest there. I hope this haunts the ones responsible to help fix this severe issue because nothing is being done. So sad.
when we die why do we care what happens to something we can’t use and will never use again. my body is essentially useless when i’m dead. my concern is the chemicals used. 🤷🏻♀️
This happened to a cemetery here where I live in California. It took some sick people pulling corpses out of the mausoleums and propping them up in the hallways (some with cigs in their mouths) for the city to finally do something about it.
When the judge dies, bury him there.
No. Turn that into a prison for the Judge while he is alive
Do you really think he will care one way or another when he is dead?

Well, grave robbing goes back to the pyramids although I think ghoulish reasons are behind these desecrations.
I work at a cemetery which is over 100 years old. Our cemetery is an endowed cemetery meaning that a certain percentage from the sale of the properties goes into a fund that is meant to take care of the cemetery grounds long after the cemetery is full. It is also a deeded cemetery and property deeds are issued for the properties (gravesites) at the time of purchase. The burial records at the cemetery are recorded in 4 different places so that if something were to happen to one set, there are 3 more. We also have a mausoleum and it is heartbreaking to see this one damaged and abandoned. We strive to honor every life.
Thanks, my momma has been in care since I was a little girl...

@Nevin Reid I do not work at this cemetery, I just want you to know that. I was an Administrative Assistant for 6 years working as a record keeper and customer service. For the last 4 years I have worked as maintenance, groundskeeper and gardener. I maintain grave and niche spaces along with headstones and gardens. I have seen many cremated remains, not so many non-cremated remain.
@Nevin Reid at the cemetery I work for, the caskets are in individual crypts, surrounded on all sides by cement slabs. Kind of like shelving. The fronts of the crypts are granite with bronze lettering
This is downright sickening, disgraceful and inexcusable.
Your right very distasteful. A true dam shame.
$6,000 to remove a box from inside a hole in a wall in one place, move it to a another place, and place the box in the hole in the wall there? Wow, I'm in the wrong business.
The funeral business is mostly about wringing as much money out of grieving families as possible. Disgusting.
It's much harder than it sounds. There could be demolition work that needs to be done to access the body, need to examine the body to ensure everything is there, new caskets, and other costs. $6,000 is actually cheap for the amount of work that might need to be done per body.

Beyond comprehension.
I came across two abandoned or what appeared to be abandoned cemeteries in my life. They were vandalized. Some above ground graves were open with remains exposed. Some under ground graves dig up. The authorities handled the situations. Idk much of what ever became of this but I thought it was extremely disrespectful to the families as well as the deceased
That is beyond disturbing in so many ways. From the neglect from the city or state to the thieves of those whole stole from the dead. Its one year later so I hope all is fixed
Many of the people's immediate families have probably died or moved away, even the ones in the 90s, a lot can change in 20 years
I think a lot of people don't even know that they have relatives there
Why in the Good Lords name would a judge order records on the decedent's be DESTROYED??? That is absurd and INSANE! What is it they are wanting to hide in Rhode Island government about this fiasco? The veterans being desecrated? Something stinks here, besides the mausoleum. I hope the spirits of the dead torment and haunt this IGNORANT ass judge!
RI is a state where 100 people burn to death in a firetrap nightclub-and the owners get 6 and 9 months in minimum security prison. Corrupt to the core.
Get some inmate trusties from the county, state or federal level. Inmates love to work it makes their time go by faster. You have to give them the proper equipment, training and food. They will get it done in little or no time.
Contact the prison officials.

John Smith I watched a dateline episode where a daughter tried to solve her mother’s unexplained death. They exhumed her 30 years after death and the coroner gave the daughters the ring her mother’s corpse was wearing. And she’s proudly wearing it. I know way too much about human decomp to ever wear a ring buried with my dad. Blech!!!!
To be honest, I personally feel that the morticians should collect any type of jewelry from the deceased before the casket is closed, locked and allen wrenched shut forever more. The jewelry should then be returned to the living relatives and kept as a keepsake to be passed down to the next of living relatives so on, so forth. Jewelry should NEVER be buried with the death under no circumstances. Should be made a law.
@@zombiemom6701 There was an exhuming of Lee Harvey Osweld who had a gold ring and a ruby setting that I read about. And at the time the former wife of Osweld got the ring and gave it to someone else involved in the exhuming of his body, and they really didn't want it. Probably put back in the newer metal casket they gave him before being buried again. This exhuming was to prove that there was no Soviet spy, and that this truly was Oswald in that grave. This happened in 1981, I believe.
When a judge destroys records of this importance, it just tells you he's good at covering up the worst of worse situations. Just imagine the things he let slip through the system that he should have never allowed.
Why order all the archives to be destroyed? Seems very suspect to me!
This is terribly wrong. When these people were living they paid for their mausoleum and to have their loved ones in under the same roof. To have their resting place disturbed and vandalize is very disrespectful and helps depreciate the value of ones life and death. I was thinking about getting one of these for me & my family. What a disturbing realization to see their grave disturbed and separated from family. That's the purpose of purchasing a mausoleum and their expensive.
Notice the deceased owner spent the perpetual care funds. Name that guy. Despicable.
It actually happening with many cemetery's. The people who own or operate the cemetery pass away or move on and no one is taking care of the site anymore. Many of them are considered closed and no longer doing burials so there really isn't the need for anyone to work on the site anymore. It sad but no one can afford to take care of the site anymore and it becomes decayed and dangerous. I was reading that it takes about $400-$3,000 per grave each year to maintain a cemetery. If you have 10,000 people buried there, that is $4 million-$30 million in costs each year. That doesn't help you when you have people from 1670-2020 buried on the site. Many lawmakers have tried to get state and federal money to maintain these sites but there is a lot of opposition and red tape with that idea.
Ongoing costs can include: Mowing and lawn care, restoring broken/old tombstones, replacing fencing, liability insurance, and etc..
Yes they probably did, but you're forgetting upkeep. For a cemetary at least, there is mowing and prepping of new burial plots, etc. HOwever, it should be required that mosoleums, just like businesses, have to have a type of "life insurance" that would cover the mosoleum if the owner's pass away (like in this case) and a successor is not named. I would think that if the previous owners had some sort of "insurance" for the mosoleum, the $3m cost to move the bodies would not be a discussion and would have been done by now.

@tutje Hola you can't rely on the government for anything and nor should you. But what I was talking about was a voluntary donation through gofundme, if the local and the state government are doing nothing like in this situation if someone connected to this situation was to set up a gofundme then its possible to get the funds to get this done from good people willing to part with a buck or two to help out. Its basically what gofundme was set up to do.
@tutje Hola the government gets all funds FROM the people, though.
@tutje Hola "The people" will be funding it either way. Where do you think the government gets money?
This is absolutely unconscionable! Money or not, someone, somewhere, needs to step up and get to work in this situation. Everyone needs to get together and tend to these people that were layed to rest. This is horrible.
6 thousand to remove 1 body? I do think an explanation is due for the justification of a unbelievable cost.

It’s true, I did an insulation project at a mausoleum that had AC unit blown off in massive winds. I was in the attic and kept getting nauseous from the odor. My clothes smelled like death. Sad, but that cemetery stepped up and made all repairs very quickly to their mausoleum. After I witnessed that, I decided to be cremated. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.

There is a fiduciary responsibility with any funeral home, cemetery land holdings, etc that need to have more strict regulations and contingency backup, monetarily by county, in accordance to need or lack of funding by deceased payments to inter. It's almost like a ponzi scheme. You have to get more investors (dead people) to keep the fund going.

For those saying you are buried in perpetuity, you are not. In modern times, you only have the rights to the plot anywhere from 70-100 years after the last time you were visited.

I hope the issues were resolved . I used to be a place of silence and peace for me when I lived up there so close to the Park . I can not believe that the State of RI would charge to have the bodies removed . and the sadness it brings me that each person placed to rest has been disturbed . does the state of RI not have any respect now for the historic land marks any more and the Dead have been disturbed they chose to be buried and left to rest in peace no Respect for the people left there to rest in peace just destruction !!!!!!! .
Why on earth would someone order records/books destroyed? It was a record of who was buried there. If no one is claiming the bodies after a period of time wouldn't it be cheaper just to cremate the remains rather than rebury? The cremains could be placed into a large burial plot with a plaque showing the remains buried there. The fact that the place was desecrated is beyond pale. I understand wanting a mausoleum burial, but leaving expensive jewelry and such is not a good idea. As this video shows, crypts can be broken into. My uncle left a 25K diamond bracelet with my aunt when she was put into a crypt.
At the very least those records should have been donated to a genealogical society and any relatives wanting that information would be told who has it.
mike b exactly. My great grandfather died in 1916 and was buried In Philadelphia with his wife and infant daughter. In 1950 they were dug up and taken to Chester county pa because Philly built a strip mall where the cemetery was. But now there’s no records about where in the cemetery my great grandparents may be. It’s upsetting.
In the UK we have very few mausoleums. These mausoleums are businesses in the USA and like all businesses they can fail. This then leaves the bodies abandoned and vulnerable. I feel it's a real disgrace.

PAKTRA PRODUCTIONS well even with modern day embalming the body will still decompose, and can sometime happen faster once the body has been buried.
Either way a body will eventually decompose in most if not all ground burials.
Even though the body is a shell, it is still very important for those left to be with their dead loved ones and to say goodbye, viewing a dead loved one is a very important part of the grieving process for many, so washing/laying out and slowing down any bodily changes for that is important,
but that’s what funerals and viewings are for.
Once the body has been buried, that’s the end really
This is what makes me so angry! They charge families too much money to go through that. Even the owners knew ahead of time they weren't going to take care of that masolieum!

How low and scummy come some people get? Stealing from the dead, WHATTTTT !!!!!!!!!!! An absolute disgrace and total disrespectful 😡😡😡
This is very disrespectful to leave people there God rest they souls 🙏 💔
This is why I'm going to be buried beneath a tree sampling in a decomposition cocoon
Cremation is the best way. It’s cheaper and Environmental friendly.
Your Cremains will not contaminate the soil.
Yep. I am doing a green burial. No coffin...no embalming. Just a shroud...under a tree in the woods. Simple fieldstone marker.
@@matthewhenderson5900 cremation uses a lot of energy and gives off emissions. Greenest way is no embalming, let your body nourish the earth.
While not the best of solutions, I would think examining the idea of putting a sarcophagus over the structure might be more cost effective and eliminate the need to remove the building. Making the new structure one without doors but adding reasonably well done trim could suffice. A placard for each person could be paced on the outside walls with a large one telling the story of the facility. I know it isn't the best solution but it is one that could be completed rather quickly and one that would require less maintenance while containing the environmental and health concerns.
Will Sweat Then WHO would be responsible for that structure - financially? Security for it?
Why bother getting burried? People shouldn't be able to own these places if there's not a plan to protect them after they're gone
Agreed. Either they need to be owned by the state or the owners should be required to have some sort of insurance to cover the costs of either relocation or to provide for the places when the owners pass away (if a succession plan is not in place).
Trust the judge to make the wrong decision. Typical.
This is so sad and so disrespectful to the ones that are laid to rest there. I hope this haunts the ones responsible to help fix this severe issue because nothing is being done. So sad.
How did this happen? I’ve never heard of this, I would think since death is 100percent, you can’t go wrong owning a cemetery
Caskets for the last 60 or more years have a waterproof ID tube thats inserted in a compartment on the casket.
David Morley can you explain why?
@@adamdonnelly3912 He said "waterproof *ID* tag: *IDENTIFICATION*
@@r.ridderbusch7303 alright
Durrr durrr durrrr potato.
This is true.
A judge wanted the records destroyed? Maybe should have to pay a fine.
disgusting, wtf get the government to step in and recover those bodies
The judge who ordered to destroy the books should go to prison.
That's a shame!
when we die why do we care what happens to something we can’t use and will never use again. my body is essentially useless when i’m dead. my concern is the chemicals used. 🤷🏻♀️
This happened to a cemetery here where I live in California. It took some sick people pulling corpses out of the mausoleums and propping them up in the hallways (some with cigs in their mouths) for the city to finally do something about it.
😯😯😯😯😯
I'm from northern California what part?? Did this happen
@@kyoakland Glendale.
That's very discussting!
Why does it have to cost that kind of money to move bodies?? Ridiculous!!!! Just pay for labor and move on!! Don't leave them there due to money!!
