Public Safety and Cemeteries

A Pennsylvania man has appeared in court accused of stealing more than 100 sets of human remains from area cemeteries. Authorities say the case involved the removal of bodies or skeletal remains from multiple graves, and prosecutors called the situation a "horror movie" by local reports. He appeared in court on accusations that he stole the remains, and judges set conditions while further proceedings were planned, the report says. Local coverage gave the case wide attention because of the number of remains and the grisly details reported by authorities.
