Remember this case?

Crematory operator pleads guilty to corpse abuse

November 17, 2004 - 8:47AM
A former crematory operator accused of dumping 334 bodies on his property and passing off cement dust as ashes had agreed to plead guilty to criminal charges, ...
... a source with knowledge of the deal told Associated Press on condition of anonymity that Marsh will be sentenced to 12 years in prison with credit for about seven months he already has served while awaiting trial.
The sentence, which covered all 787 criminal charges of theft and abuse of a corpse, would be followed by a lengthy probation period, the source said. If Marsh were to go to trial and be convicted on all charges, he could be sentenced to more than 8,000 years in prison ...
Marsh and dozens of funeral homes that sent bodies to the crematory have already settled a civil lawsuit for $US80 million ($103.53 million). Attorneys for Marsh had asked Judge Bodiford to throw out the theft charges, arguing that the corpses did not constitute property.

Just to cheer you up after that -- this may have you ROTFL, or possibly cringing behind your hands in recognition of repressed memories.
