Fucking animals :mad:

 

The graves were old -- some unmarked, some forgotten.

 

The 4 have been charged with one count each of felony dismembering a human body.

 

And so four workers at historic Burr Oak Cemetery in Alsip plundered them, smashing open the concrete liners and hauling away the human remains inside to a weedy dump site, Cook County investigators say.

 

If bones clattered off the dump truck along the way, they were left on the side of the cemetery roads, investigators say.

 

As many as 300 bodies were unearthed and dumped in a mass grave as part of a scam that netted the workers about $300,000, authorities said Thursday.

 

The empty graves were resold to unsuspecting families for cash -- off the books, authorities said.
