TL;DR Summary

The number of bodies found at a funeral home in Penrose, Colorado has increased to at least 189, two weeks after investigators discovered the remains of 115 people due to a foul odor. The bodies have been transported to the El Paso County Coroner's Office, and it is unclear if the additional bodies were also decaying. State regulators have suspended the funeral home's license, and the owner, Jon Hallford, is being investigated for potential criminal charges. The funeral home offered environmentally friendly "green" burials.
