A proper Christian burial

An example of decency in a sickening story [1]:
Guns were missing.
Hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash was lying around.
Crack cocaine, marijuana and other drugs from criminal cases were tossed haphazardly in a metal bin.
Then, there were the two fetuses in the freezer from two sexual assault cases dating years back.
That was the chaos in the Middletown [Ohio] Police Department’s property room last year, according to hundreds of documents filed in a civil case in Butler County Common Pleas Court…
The fetuses, from sexual assaults of girls age 12 and 14 in 2005 and 2006, provided DNA samples to link the attacks to the suspects, said Butler County Assistant Prosecutor Jennifer Muench-McElfresh. Both men pleaded guilty before their cases went to trial.
Police later delivered the remains – in two small Styrofoam containers – to the Breitenbach-McCoy-Leffler Funeral Home in Middletown.
“They said they had been laying around in a freezer on a shelf,” funeral director John Webster said. “I gave them a proper Christian burial.”
God bless Mr. Webster for treating these two little children as the images of God they are.
