## Resource

A funeral director turned ruthless conman, Robert Bush, faces sentencing for 67 offenses over 12 years, exploiting grief to steal millions and leave families shattered. He kept bodies hidden for months, gave strangers’ ashes to grieving families—including a mother who learned her son’s remains were found in a paper bag—and defrauded over 200 people, including parents who paid for their children’s funerals. Prosecutors call him a “cruel conman” who treated the dead like “pieces of meat” and funneled money into his own pockets. The court heard horror stories of betrayal, nightmares, and stolen trust on an “almost industrial scale.” Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
