00:00Dave and Chuck the Freak are going dark-sided.
00:08Everything's ungodly! Dark-sided!
00:14Well, look at here.
00:17Another funeral home busted.
00:20Doing something creepy.
00:23What could they be doing?
00:27An investigation has been opened.
00:29At a funeral home in Indiana.
00:33Oh, Indiana.
00:35After authorities made a disturbing discovery.
00:41According to the Jeffersonville Police Department,
00:4731 bodies have been found.
00:53Not bodies, friends.
00:53At the Lankford Funeral Home and Family Center.
00:59Hi, I'm Jonathan Lankford.
01:01Please, is his name Jonathan?
01:03I don't know.
01:04I feel like it should be.
01:07I'm my father and my father's father.
01:10It's always the way it is.
01:11It's always a family business.
01:13Oh, hello.
01:15So, just letting them hang out?
01:18Letting the bodies hang out?
01:19Yeah.
01:1931 bodies, some of which were in advanced stages.
01:23Randy, my name is Randy, unfortunately.
01:27Randy Lankford.
01:28Oh, yes, Randy Lankford.
01:32Oh, my.
01:33What does he look like?
01:35My father's name was Jonathan.
01:37Is that him?
01:39Oh, yeah.
01:41That's got to be him, right?
01:43Yeah.
01:43Oh, those pictures are creepy, though.
01:45Oh, my God.
01:45It could be any one of them.
01:46I know they all are.
01:47Yes.
01:48Apparently, there's lots of creepy Randy Lankfords in the world,
01:50but that's him.
01:54Amazing.
01:57That's funny.
01:58He's, like, in a different spot, though.
02:01What do you mean?
02:02Uh, didn't you say it was, did you say it was Indiana?
02:06It's Indiana, yeah.
02:07Yeah, Jeffersonville.
02:08Okay, no, like his, uh, his LinkedIn said he was, like, in Louisville.
02:13Look at him.
02:15Hi.
02:16Hi.
02:17Don't you think he talks like that?
02:19Randy Lankford's parents passed away just six months apart.
02:22Of course.
02:23Should you look into that, maybe?
02:25I bet he definitely kept them in the basement for a while.
02:29What a weird way to start that news story, though.
02:32I know.
02:32Why did they start the news story like that?
02:35Randy Lankford's parents passed away just six months apart.
02:37Because that's what got him into the funeral business, they say.
02:40Oh, okay.
02:41So that was, I was like, why would they?
02:43This is not the, this, that story.
02:45Oh, my God.
02:46This is another story on the dude we just found.
02:48I was like, why is that the first thing they say?
02:51This is, this is a funeral director's origin story that you're reading.
02:56Yes, yes.
02:56Right.
02:57Neither of his parents had planned or saved up for funeral expenses.
03:00Neither had life insurance.
03:02He struggled to pay the $16,000 for their two funerals.
03:06Following that experience, he pursued becoming a funeral director in an effort to help other
03:11families afford needed services.
03:13Also, it wasn't even a family business.
03:15He just decided to start it because of his personal experience.
03:17Do you know how you keep costs down, though?
03:19You know how you keep costs down?
03:20Yeah.
03:21Just put the bodies in the basement.
03:23There's 31 of them.
03:25I'll get to them when I get to them.
03:27You're right.
03:28That's how you offer discount funerals.
03:30Wasn't there one in Detroit?
03:31Yes.
03:32Same thing.
03:32It was offering discount funerals.
03:33They found a bunch of bodies in there, too.
03:35Isn't discount funerals, unfortunately, it's never good.
03:40If there's one thing in life you can't skimp on, it's a funeral.
03:42Wasn't the Detroit one the blood was running out into the streets and stuff?
03:45Oh, that was another one, too.
03:47There's been a bunch of them.
03:48I don't know if it was the same one.
03:49I don't either.
03:51There was blood in the streets.
03:52They also found remains of 16 people unidentified.
03:56Oh, you got to keep it all together.
03:58You got to keep a better filing system.
04:00At least a sticker on it.
04:02A box.
04:03Just take a little box.
04:04Name tag.
04:06All.
04:06I'll be honest, I can't remember who's who.
04:11It's crazy.
04:12I don't know who they are.
04:14All my friends.
04:15Oh, my God.
04:16You got to keep track of that stuff.
04:20How many remains were given away?
04:23No, but what if it's this, right?
04:25Like, well, I have your Uncle Jim, but you can't have Uncle Jim until you finish paying for all of your services.
04:35But that's not why he got into the business.
04:37I know, but then it ends up the business gets you.
04:42He got into the business to help people, they say.
04:44Probably did, but then the only way to help is I'll hold Jim for six months in my basement until you can afford to bury him.
04:54Oh, man.
04:59It doesn't take long for the bodies to start piling up, though.
05:0331 decomposing bodies.
05:05Some dating back to March.
05:06Some have been there since March.
05:08So the families don't care?
05:10I mean, what is it?
05:11I don't get it.
05:12Families, questions families still have.
05:15They're wondering about the status of the body of their loved one.
05:18Why don't you have a funeral?
05:20A tipster called because of an odor.
05:22A tipster coming from the building.
05:26So it wasn't like family members saying, I don't know where.
05:30So in one case, they were told they couldn't pick up their loved one's remains because the urn they had purchased hadn't been delivered to the funeral.
05:37Oh, OK.
05:39I thought they were going to say they hadn't paid for it.
05:42I mean, he's creepy looking, but he's not as creepy as some of the other ones.
05:46Well, because he's not.
05:47Listen, he's the first, right?
05:49So you have to, like, fast forward out to, like, what his kids would have been like if they were part of the family.
05:59I mean, he's still creepy.
06:00You've got to be creepy to decide to do this.
06:03You're right.
06:03He's still creepy.
06:04But he's not the third in line of funeral home people, you know, like when someone's grandfather and then father and now them do it.
06:17That's where to me where the creepiness goes way up.
06:21All you've ever known is dead bodies.
06:23That's all you've ever known.
06:26You played.
06:28No.
06:28In in places where bodies.
06:34Have been for sure.
06:37Well, I don't.
06:38And listen, I don't know.
06:39Maybe you did.
06:39Maybe they were your friends.
