Old Baltimore Social Security Administration building becomes field morgue
 [Baltimore Banner] The Baltimore County funeral director worried more with each passing day. The morgue still hadn’t released the young woman’s body for cremation.I blame FEMA body snatchers and computerized toe tag discrepancies. Her father wanted to see her, just to say goodbye. But nature was already at work. A body refrigerated below 40 degrees can show signs of decomposition after one week. The funeral director called the morgue every two days. Always the same answer: "Not on today’s schedule." Please be patient. The experiments and tissue harvesting are not yet completed. More than 200 bodies are awaiting autopsies by doctors at Maryland’s Office of the Chief Medical Examiner, the agency located in downtown Baltimore responsible for investigating deaths statewide. The unprecedented backlog is growing by the day and filling up the morgue refrigerators. Local funeral directors say it’s also worsening the anguish for grieving families, some of whom have been forced to postpone funerals and missed the chance to say goodbye to a loved one. We anticipate a full release shortly after the midterm election. Posted by: Besoeker 2022-02-13 |
