| Remains of more than 60 babies, fetuses found stashed in Detroit funeral home |
| 2018-10-20 |
| (Reuters) - The remains of more than 60 infants and fetuses were found stashed in a Detroit funeral home, police said on Friday, calling the discovery "deeply disturbing." The incident comes about a week after the badly decomposed bodies of 11 babies were found hidden in a false ceiling at a different funeral home in the Michigan city. No connection between the two cases has yet been established, Detroit’s police chief said. He added city, state and federal investigators were looking to form a task force to investigate the improper storage of human remains. Unrefrigerated boxes containing about 36 sets of remains were recovered from the Perry Funeral Home along with another 27 sets of remains in a freezer, police said. "This is deeply disturbing," Detroit Police Chief James Craig told reporters on Friday. "I have never seen anything like this in my 41-1/2 years (on the force), ever." Investigators are working to establish ages and identities. An official with Perry Funeral Home, which offers burial and cremation services, declined to comment on the incident. The Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs said in a statement it revoked the funeral home’s license and shut down the facility after inspectors "found heinous conditions and negligent conduct at the home."

| #4 A potential sequel to The Gosnell movie? The original just came out — in limited distribution — a few days ago. Nota bene for those who hate Facebook: The link above is to the film’s Facebook page. No doubt there are websites and YouTube pages as well, but I like the FB page as an act if protest and support when I read that FB was essentially shadow banning it. |

| #3 They find over 60 unidentified infants and fetuses and they only find it 'deeply disturbing'? Must be that Democratic concern for the children we hear so much about... |
