To not understand the Hull funeral directors story?

I've just seen an update to the news story and it sounds absolutely terrible.

35 bodies now identified at the funeral directors, some of whom have relatives that believed they had already been cremated and had been given their ashes. It sounds so upsetting.

What I can't understand is what on Earth was going on? I sort of get they may have been taking the money to cremate bodies then not actually doing so.....but then what the heck were they planning to do with the bodies they had in storage?

I think the strangest bit of the story is that quite a few of the reportings have said that the maritime protection unit is involved in the investigation.

Pixie divers are used to flaming and handling decomposed bodies (in water). They would have the skills and the stomach for this more than your average PC.

@FuckoffARFID the bold part of my post is a quote from a previous poster. I didn't say that.

'Pixie divers', 'flaming'? I hope that is your autocorrect playing up rather than actual things.

Bloody phone! Awful typos. Pixie is police, flaming is finding. Time for bed I think!
