An arraignment for a Colorado funeral home owner accused of keeping a woman’s corpse in the back of a hearse for over a year and improperly stashing the cremated remains of at least 30 people has been delayed because prosecutors have filed additional charges.
The residence where a former funeral home owner kept a deceased women’s body in a hearse for two years as well as the remains of 30 cremated people is shown Friday, Feb. 16, 2024, in southwest Denver . DENVER — An arraignment for a Colorado funeral home owner accused of keeping a woman’s corpse in the back of a hearse forand improperly stashing the cremated remains of at least 30 people has been delayed again, this time because prosecutors have filed additional charges.
Miles Harford had been scheduled to enter a plea Monday to two counts of forgery, one count of abuse of a corpse and one count of theft during a court hearing in Denver that had been delayed four previous times. Last week, prosecutors filed additional charges against Harford including three more counts of abuse of a corpse for treating bodies or remains “in a way that would outrage normal family sensibilities.” The names of the victims were redacted from the motion to add the new charges, but the crimes date back to 2019.
Harford, 34, is represented by lawyers from the state public defender’s office, which does not comment on its cases to the media. His next court hearing is set for Jan. 17. Harford was arrested in February after the body of Christina Rosales, who died of Alzheimer’s at age 63, was found covered in blankets in the back of a hearse and the cremated remains of at least 30 other people were found stashed throughout a rental property, from inside the hearse to the crawl space.
