Funeral Home Cuts Off Tall Corpse’s Legs

Columbia, South Carolina.- Authorities have revoked the licenses of a South Carolina funeral home and its director after he admitted one of his employees cut off the legs of a 6-foot-7 man without the family’s permission so the corpse would fit in a casket.
The state Board of Funeral Service voted unamimously to close Cave Funeral Home in Allendale. The board also fined funeral director Michael Cave $500 and ordered him to pay $1,500 for the investigation.
In an agreement with the board, Cave said employees never told James Hines’ family that this body might not fit in a standard casket. An unlicensed worker, Charles G. Cave, cut the legs with an electric saw without consulting relatives.
