Multiple decomposing bodies and human fetuses at Pocatello [Idaho] funeral home
East Idaho News ^ | Sept. 4, 2021 | Nate Sunderland

McDougall confirmed during a search of the building, officers discovered multiple unrefrigerated bodies in various states of decomposition, including some that were badly decomposed. Human fetuses were also discovered on the premises.

Police have not provided a total body count, or given any sort of explanation about why the bodies were decomposing or why fetuses were on the property.

So far, no one has been arrested in connection with this case...

The Downard Funeral Home is owned by Pocatello resident Lance Peck and his wife. Peck has a history of licensing violations... Additionally, Downard Funeral Home was previously in charge of donating cadavers to Idaho State University for scientific study. This relationship ended last year though, after the university did not receive donations for a period of time.

You say cremate, but what are the guaranties you are picking up your loved one? How do you know if it isn’t the plumber or even a dog?

I’ve worked in a shipping area. You would be shocked at how many items get misplaced. I imagine it happens at the local crematory too. A label falls off, one box missing a label...

I want to be buried, the way God intended us to be. Cremation is the lack of honor for the human body. Just ask Audrey, my brother’s M-I-L, she is sitting on his mantel along with 3 dogs.

Downard is off the list of approved funeral homes at my wife’s place of
business. Pocatello is immediately south of my city.

Toss me in a dumpster, it won’t matter to me at that stage.
