A British funeral director, Robert Bush, has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for deceiving families. He hid dozens of bodies in his mortuary for years, telling families they had been buried or cremated. He also stole charity donations. Bush's actions were discovered in 2024 when a casual worker reported a 'horror scene'.
