COPS at the centre of a "truly horrific" funeral home fraud probe were investigating a second parlour, we can reveal.They included devastated Nikki McLoughlin who discovered the plot her dad, Bernard Skerrett, 78, had paid for in advance did not exist.Covid
"This report was received March 6 and whilst we are in the early stages of our enquires, at this stage we do not believe the two investigations to be connected.""However, the owner of the business who was a suspect died, and the CPS do not provide a charging decision upon a case when a suspect is deceased."Humberside Deputy Chief Constable Dave Marshall said officers were continuing to support families through the "extremely difficult and distressing time".
"I recognise that this is a distressing time for all of those affected and I have no doubt it will have a significant impact across all our local communities and beyond."
