"Funeral Home Owners Accused of Abandoning Bodies for Lavish Spending"

TL;DR Summary
Two Colorado funeral home owners are accused of abandoning nearly 200 bodies and using payments meant for cremations and burials to buy vehicles, cryptocurrency, and a $1,500 dinner in Las Vegas. The bodies were found in a maggot-infested building, and families who hired the funeral home have confirmed their relatives' remains were among those discovered. The couple faces charges including abuse of a corpse, theft, money laundering, and forgery, with evidence suggesting they tried to cover up financial difficulties by leaving the bodies at a storage facility.
