Funeral Home Stored Dead Babies In The Ceiling Due To “Storage Issues”. Umm
To be fair, they were already dead and it’s terribly sad but would we be as shocked by the headline or story if they were hiding old dead people in the ceiling.
I have a very different barometer than most when it comes to stories like this. I don’t feel like I have to gloss a story about dead babies in the ceiling because death is sad and I need to be more sensitive.
The tragedy is not thinking ahead when it comes to infrastructure and the resulting disrespect to human remains.
HUFF PO – An anonymously written letter led Michigan inspectors to find badly decomposed remains of 11 infants hidden in a ceiling compartment of a shuttered Detroit funeral home, police say.
Inspectors with the Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs found the remains Friday at the former Cantrell Funeral Home, just hours after receiving the letter telling them where the bodies were located, Detroit police Lt. Brian Bowser told reporters. The funeral home has been closed since April, when state inspectors suspended its license following the discovery of bodies covered with what appeared to be mould.
Shitty funeral home owners are the worst. Especially when they start shoving bodies into the ductwork.
Not to mention that place is probably haunted AF right now killing any resale value.
Protip: if you own a funeral home, It’s probably best to not do this ever. It’s called ‘indignity to a dead body’ and you can totally go to jail for it. You’re welcome.
