Colorado Governor Signs Bills to Regulate Funeral Homes After Discovery of 190 Bodies
May 24, 2024, 04:20 PM
Colorado Governor Jared Polis signed two bills on Friday to regulate the funeral home and mortuary industry in the state. The legislation comes in response to the discovery of 190 decomposing bodies and other egregious violations, such as fake ashes, unauthorized body part sales, and a woman's body found in a hearse after over a year. The new laws will bring Colorado in line with other states and require state inspections of funeral facilities. The cases have highlighted Colorado's previously lax regulations, which were among the weakest in the nation, and have deeply affected hundreds of grieving families.
