Police investigating a foul smell discovered at least 115 decaying bodies inside a "green" funeral home in Penrose, Colorado. The funeral home owner, Jon Hallford, allegedly tried to conceal the improper storage of corpses by claiming he was doing taxidermy. The facility's registration has been expired since November. No arrests have been made, and investigations are ongoing to determine any criminal wrongdoing. Families of those who have used the funeral home are being asked to contact investigators. The FBI is assisting with the investigation, and the identification process for the bodies could take several months.
