Funeral Director Stole Bodies and Charity Funds | London News

A funeral director named Robert Bush is set to be sentenced after admitting to a chilling string of crimes: hoarding 31 bodies—including a stillborn baby in a paper bag—at his funeral home, lying to grieving families that their loved ones were cremated and giving them ashes of strangers, stealing over $500,000 from 12 charities including the Salvation Army and RNLI, and selling fake funeral plans to more than 200 people over 12 years. Families shattered by his betrayal broke down in court, describing the agony of discovering their trust had been exploited during their darkest moments. Bush, who pleaded guilty to multiple charges including fraud, theft, and preventing lawful burials, has confessed to breaching the trust of countless people on an industrial scale.
