An undertaker has pleaded guilty to swindling the relatives of the dead by flogging their loved ones' harvested body parts despite telling them they'd been cremated.
Megan Hess owned the now-closed Sunset Mesa funeral home in Colorado, US, and another business called Donor Services through which she sold the heads, spines, arms and legs.
She entered the guilty plea to a charge of fraud at a Colorado Magistrates court yesterday and will be sentenced in January.
