Funeral director ‘watched cartoons’ with dead babies

Tavsif:

A BBC investigation accused Leeds funeral director Amie Upton, 38, of keeping dead infants in her home, including allegedly placing one in a baby bouncer "watching cartoons." Families told reporters they were shocked to discover their children’s bodies at Upton’s house instead of a professional funeral setting, describing the scenes as "like a horror film." Leeds Teaching Hospitals Trust has since banned her from its mortuaries and maternity wards, the Mirror has reported. Upton, who runs Florrie’s Army, denies wrongdoing and says families often prefer their babies not be left in mortuaries, insisting complaints have been rare in her eight years of work.
