The suit alleges that Bayview contracted with ceremony homes for a $190 package deal, in which Bayview sent a truck to pick up bodies, hauled them to Seabrook, New Hampshire for cremation and then delivered ashes back to the ceremony homes. If ceremony homes followed standard industry practice, transporting the bodies themselves and witnessing the cremation, it would cost as much as $265, the complaint says.
"To save $75 per deceased body, these and other ceremony home operators turned over control of bodies under their charge to an unlicensed low-budget crematory based in Seabrook, NH, where they were routinely mishandled," said Sam Rudman, a name partner with Lerach Coughlin Stoia Geller Rudman & Robbins LLP, based in Melville, NY.
Thousands of New England families cannot be sure that the high-volume, low-price crematorium gave them back the correct ashes, the complaint charges, because the ceremony homes allowed Bayview employees to pick up bodies in a box truck, take them to the facility where multiple bodies were cremated together, then return the remains with no certainty that families would, as promised, receive the ashes of their loved ones.
