Authorities find more bodies after initial report of 115 two weeks ago, when owners were evicted and police investigated foul odor

The remains of at least 189 decaying bodies were found and removed from a Colorado funeral home, up from about 115 reported when the bodies were discovered two weeks ago, officials said Tuesday.

The remains were found by authorities responding to a report of a foul odor at the Return to Nature funeral home inside a decrepit building in the small town of Penrose, Colorado.

Efforts to identify the remains began last week with help from an FBI team that gets deployed to mass casualty events like airline crashes. Fremont sheriff Allen Cooper described the scene as “horrific”.

    Nursing home ≠ funeral home

    Is your mind a shithole or is this just a semantics mistake?

      • I agree that the older American generations had this whole thing where they said the US is the greatest country in the world, but as an American millenial, I certainly don’t feel that way. And I haven’t met too many Americans in my generation or younger that genuinely feel that way (granted, maybe this is cause I don’t have any MAGA friends). Those of us that don’t follow the train wreck that is Trump are very aware of our country’s deep flaws and corruptions, and like virtually every other country that has corruption, there’s little the people can do. I vote, and I encourage others to vote, but not a whole lot I can do about the rich driving this country into the ground.

        I can tell you just naturally dislike Americans and think we’re all the same, but maybe consider the fact that none of us can control where we were born, and many of us don’t have the luxury of just moving out of the country. So please don’t assume that living in the country you were born and raised in automatically means that you are ok with the decisions our overlords are making for us.
