Here is another case of the Funeral Director taking your Preneed, Prepaid Funeral Funds. This is the classic Preneed Funeral Scam that has been pulled off by NPS, the Illinois Funeral Directors Association(IFDA), Randal L Earl Treasurer of the NFDA(National Funeral Directors Association) For the Museum of Funeral Customs and as is often the case in this story, the individual funeral employee.
A well-known Sanford man was arrested Thursday, accused of stealing more than $100,000 that was supposed to go toward funerals.
Florida Department of Law Enforcement agents say Bernard Mitchell worked for a Sanford funeral home for more than 40 years, and for the past three, they say he’s been stealing money from customers. They say that instead of putting the pre-paid money for burial plots and funerals into a state escrow account, which is state law, Mitchell pocketed lots of the money.
