In October 2023, a complaint was made against the ‘Return to Nature’ Funeral Home in Colorado after a foul odor was reported coming from the building. The owner Jon Hallford, told authorities that the odor was caused by taxidermy that he had been practicing.

When authorities went to inspect the building, what they found was horrific and almost beyond description. 189 bodies had been left to rot, at room temperature in the funeral home. They had been stacked on top of each other, and some of the remains had been there for years.

An investigation showed that many families had been given cement dust instead of the cremains of their loved ones.

Jon Hallford and his wife Carie have been charged with 190 counts of abusing a corpse.

In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss the horrific fall of Jon and Carie Hallford and the Return to Nature Funeral Home.

Jennifer Crumbley, the mother of school shooter Ethan Crumbley, was recently convicted of four counts of involuntary manslaughter in relation to the case. We discuss this update in this episode also.
