D.C. Parents Sue $20 Million After Infant’s Body Found Decaying at Now-Closed Heaven Bound Crematorium Under Police Probe

A lawsuit seeking $20 million has been filed by parents in Washington, D.C., after discovering that their deceased infant son's body was found decaying at Heaven Bound Cremation Services, a now-closed crematorium in Charles County, Maryland, instead of being cremated as arranged. The case has drawn attention to alleged misconduct at the funeral home, which is also accused of providing thousands of pet owners with fake ashes. Maryland State Police investigators are examining the situation, with one attorney describing the facility as a “house of horrors.” Multiple families have come forward alleging that the crematorium failed to cremate their deceased children, raising serious concerns about the handling of remains at the establishment.
