Denver Funeral Home Owner Faces Charges for Corpse and Remains Mismanagement

Miles Harford is accused of keeping a woman's body in a hearse for over a year and improperly storing more than 30 cremated remains.

Miles Harford, 34, is set to enter a plea in Denver state court facing charges including forgery, abuse of a corpse, and theft.
Authorities discovered the remains at Harford's home during an eviction in February, leading to his arrest.
The body of Christina Rosales, who died of Alzheimer's at age 63, was found in a hearse covered in blankets.
In addition to Rosales' body, 35 cremated remains were allegedly scattered throughout Harford's property.
The case highlights ongoing issues with Colorado funeral homes, prompting recent regulatory reforms signed by Gov. Jared Polis.
