A Detroit funeral home has responded after the discovery of more fetuses.
Perry Funeral Home is the second Detroit funeral home under investigation for the handling of infant remains.
More than 60 fetuses were found in boxes and freezers at the funeral home on Detroit’s west side.
The investigation started when 11 fetuses were found at the shuttered Cantrell Funeral Home on Detroit’s east side.
That discovery led authorities to Perry Funeral Home, which has since been closed as investigators try to identify the remains.
The funeral home has issued a written statement thru it’s lawyer, saying that the infant remains were unclaimed by parents. Perry says a funeral home cannot do a burial without authorization and that Perry never received authorization to dispose of the remains. Perry maintains it’s actions were legal and proper.
