  1. How hard is it to just cremate a body? Sounds like an easy business to me and they still screw it up

  2. This is terrible and so very sad that these people weren't given the respect to be given proper cremation services by this "business." 6 people recently died and apparently their bodies were not preserved / embalmed to be cremated, so these people's bodies were just decomposing in this funky warehouse. 😔 This cremation business had its license suspended in 2018 according to the video's description. 2018 was already 5 yrs ago. All the families that were never contacted after 5 yrs to find out what happened with their loved ones deserve justice as do their family members that have passed on. 😞

  3. At death, we are gone. Burn me, flush me. Easy, peasy. I've seen bodies dragged, pushed and pulled, dumped into a garbage bag. The people who deal with the bodies are dead inside. As the world gets more overcrowded the meaning to life will only continue to diminish. We treat animals like this, so what else should we expect.

  4. HAVE YOU GUYS IN AMERICA every thought the whole "greed" thing might have gone too far…???

  5. A similar incident happened in Klamath county, where a convicted child molester was contracted to the Sheriff's Dept to process unclaimed dead bodies. He would stack bodies in refrigerators and cremate multiple bodies and distribute mixed ashes to families.

  6. Imagine finding 150+ bodies/remains in Jeffrey Dahmer’s warehouse and the police saying: we don’t know if we are going to charge him. Wow!!!
    I know it’s not the same, but I’m just saying: neither of the two are legal. 🤷🏽‍♂️

  7. what comes from the see will return to the see , buriel on the high see

  8. Flagged and reported for click bait video title

  9. May be involved in missing people even. They're acting creepy, I wouldn't put it past them.

  10. Gods in the restroom, someone knock on the door and get hiim please 🤣

  11. Its criminal so how is there no charges?

  12. American Capitalism is evil.

  13. Human greed makes me sick

  14. Accountability trickles down from the highest levels of a society. Our leaders act as if they are not accountable to the law or to the common decencies of our society. This is the result. We must elect people who will model good, kind, charitable, decent behavior. My heart breaks for these families who have been so wronged.

  15. Oh God. I feel very sorry. Some Americans are making U.S. a bad place. They must be jailed. God Bless Humanity😔

  16. This is horrible and has been happening a lot I feel like. Lately they are getting caught but this is just so disgusting… awful.. I know a few years ago the funeral hones were overwhelmed from all the overdosed happening today the overdoses are probably worse and I know it's been taking longer and bodies have been kept on ice longer. Whatever the reason ask for help work together to figure it out this is so evil

  17. why didn't they just throw the remains out wtf? Why pay for a warehouse to get rid of the ashes? Something doesn't add up here.

  18. That's still kidnapping or body napping no matter how you look at it. You took somebody's love one and did the opposite of what you said you would. Do you need to go to jail?

  19. Don't they have to register the burial at sea with the coast guard or something. Seems like they could look at that paperwork to see how many burials at sea haven't happened yet.

  20. The good news is that those dead bodies are not their loved ones. After death we leave our useless bodies behind.

  21. Remember if the news, no matter how important, doesnt fit nbcs pro dem agenda they will ignore it. Watch a legit news outlet to hear whats really going on .

  22. Keep your dead family out of the oceans jesus christ.

  23. YOU cannot keep your dead, but this can happen to anyone 🤡

  24. This is HILARIOUS! LOLOLOL 🤣🤣🤣

  25. This is what happens when a country makes your death a for-profit business model.

  26. california is the the china of america

  27. How f'ing lazy and disrespectable can you be that you cant scatter the ashes of your loved ones yourself and instead rely on a total stranger to do it?

  28. What if someone bought this as a storage unit? 😲 🫨 🫢

  29. This is sick. Storing corpses and giving people the wrong ashes?!

  30. The funeral business is as corrupt as you can get.
    It's horrible.

  31. Neptune Society once again.

  32. And they are responsible for Silicon Valley Bank and cryptocurrency.

  33. the devil walks on earth

  34. The name itself Oceanview cremations sounds creepy!!! 🙄

  35. Robert smith should be in jail

  36. What a terrible country…

  37. The only one who don't care… are the dead. They're outta here… for now.

  38. Say Poste Her Name !! You lame msm comcast talking heads

  39. This sounds like murder laundering.

  40. This Woman gets NO name explaining the situations ??? Smh
