Colorado Funeral Home Owner Pleads Guilty to Stealing Body Parts_我的网站

一 |     Sunset Mesa Funeral Foundation (SMFD) was a “body-broker service.” Typically, this is a legal business in which an individual may sell body parts to third parties for research and training (not transplants) and is not regulated by federal law.,However, a grand jury indictment found that between 2010 and 2018, the mother-daughter-duo of Hess and Koch stole body parts from the grieving loved ones of at least a dozen families.,In some cases, Hess and Koch gave fake ashes to family members after charging $1,000 or more for the “cremation” process, in which Hess would harvest heads, spines, arms and legs or whole bodies to sell to third parties without the permission of grieving family members---while forging donor consent forms---according to federal investigators.,Some families had agreed to donate small samples (such as tumors) to testing and research, but Hess and Koch would then “exceed the authorization they obtained” and “remains would be sold for purposes not contemplated by the families; and body parts beyond those which were authorized, if not entire bodies, would be sold,” according to an indictment filed in 2020.,A former employee of SMFD told Reuters in 2018 that Koch allegedly pulled teeth from corpses to obtain their gold fillings and crowns and spent the money on a family vacation to Disneyland.,R. Kelly on Suicide Watch After Being Sentenced to 30 Years in Prison for Sex Crimes2 July, 18:38 GMT,Hess and Koch kept advertised cremation rates low so that they could increase the supply of bodies that were coming through their doors. The two would also, on occasion, offer free or reduced cremation rates if families agreed to “donate” their loved ones’ remains.,The “ashes” that family members received from SMFD were almost always substituted with the cremains of another person. On one occasion a person was given concrete mix.,"One thing that I heard over and over from the families is it was like a second death," said Colorado State Representative Matt Soper, who hopes to change a state law so that regulators may enter a funeral home without there being a criminal charge.,"It just kind of hits your gut," Soper said. "You can't believe that body brokering, selling body parts, chopping up body parts, giving people concrete, they're not things you hear about in the United States of America.",Authorities discovered that Hess and her mother would even ship body parts that tested positive for infectious diseases such as Hepatitis B and C, as well as HIV, after lying to third parties that the body parts were disease-free. Embalmed cadavers can still pose a risk to those who handle the body if an infectious disease is present.,Originally, Hess and Koch had pleaded not guilty to the charges. After entering a plea deal, Hess will be sentenced from 12 to 15 years in prison. Koch will attend a change of plea hearing on July 12.。    Sophie 编译 奥克兰交通局（AT）正在拆除去年新建的一条人行横道，该人行横道本来预计可使用40年。

二 |          周二，承包商开始挖Three Kings的Hayr Rd上的混凝土人行横道，先在一条车道上进行工作，留出另一边，以便允许汽车在交通管理措施下继续使用这条道路。         Advertise with us          承包商告诉英文《先驱报》，这个包括一个人行道岛的过路口正在被拆除，承包商已经开始安装混凝土模板以恢复路缘。

三 |          “有人修了它。我们再来破坏它。”一名工人说。         在今天发布的一份声明中，AT道路网络运营总经理Andrew Allen说，这个凸起的人行横道最初是作为公共汽车交付项目的一部分建设的，这是地方委员会的绿道倡议（现在没有预算来完成这项工作）。         他说，AT收到的居民投诉说，自从安装了凸起的人行横道以来，居民们感到“噪音过大”。         “由于这个原因，经过进一步的调查，AT决定拆除凸起的人行横道，取而代之的是一个标准的人行横道。

四 | ”          “地方委员会已经被告知这一决定，并支持居民的要求。

五 | ”他补充说，AT没有就去除人行横道进行公众咨询，因为它被视为一项修复/维护工作。         AT没有回答英文《先驱报》关于安装和拆除人行横道的费用的问题。         该人行横道所在的Puketāpapa地方委员会的主席Ella Kumar没有回复电话。

六 |                    居民的质问          Ken Buckley住在Warren Ave与Hayr Rd交界的地方，他对AT拆除人行横道感到惊讶。         “这太疯狂了，是典型的AT做法。他们浪费了我的钱，我不是特别高兴。”          “除了安装的费用外，拆除它要花多少钱呢？”他想知道。         附近另一位只愿透露自己名字的居民Forster对AT浪费纳税人的钱感到愤怒，他说，有人批准了这条通道，但几个月后又说：“这样不好，拆了吧。”          “我非常不开心。需要有人承担责任，要解雇他。

七 | ”          另一位上下班经过Hayr Rd不愿透露姓名的人说：“人行横道是凸起的，看起来规格很高。我不介意他们建高质量的设施，但这么快就拆掉纯属浪费钱。”                    市长和部长的批评          这起事件发生在市长Wayne Brown猛烈抨击AT在人行横道上的支出金额后。         英文《先驱报》透露，惠灵顿市议会只花了数万纽币，而AT却花了数十万纽币建人行横道，Brown批评AT已经“搞砸了”。         AT已经花了600万纽币修建12个信号交叉口，平均成本为50万纽币。作为道路安全计划的一部分，AT还在花费近700万纽币修建另外15个信号交叉口。         Brown说：“公众不喜欢这么浪费钱，其他人做同样的事情不用花这么多钱。”          作为对Brown言论的回应，AT的一位发言人表示，他们已经“改变了我们的做法”并且“将在未来考虑不同的选择”。         交通部长Simeon Brown也在这个问题上发表了自己的看法，他说，AT在新的凸起的人行横道和减速带上花的钱是不可接受的。         他说：“这不仅是一项巨大的成本，而且建了越来越多凸起的人行横道，特别是在繁忙的道路上，这只会增加行车时间，降低道路的使用效率。”          AT首席执行官Dean Kimpton表示，混凝土人行横道可以使用长达40年，而沥青的只能使用10年。         更多阅读：          奥克兰日长周末现出行高峰：南北两个方向出城的高速公路大拥堵          这个奥克兰日长周末，来自澳大利亚的飓风将影响北岛的天气          注：本文为编译/原创，欢迎转发分享；但严禁复制等未经授权的非法使用。
