CNN —An investigation into more than 115 bodies found “improperly stored” in a Colorado funeral home offering “green burials” could take months, officials say.
The remains were found in the Return to Nature Funeral Home in Penrose, about 30 miles south of Colorado Springs.
The Colorado Bureau of Investigation and the FBI are assisting the Fremont County Sheriff’s Office with the investigation.
The coroner’s office was contacted by the Fremont County sheriff on a report of an odor coming from the funeral home, Keller said.
CNN has reached out to the Return to Nature Funeral Home for comment.
