Description

The Washington State Department of Licensing is investigating why at least two bodies were improperly stored at a Bellingham funeral home contracted by Whatcom County. Multiple sources told KING 5 News it's possible six or more bodies were left unrefrigerated for days. A county spokesman said the Executive's office was not aware of the situation until KING 5 notified him. The story starts along Highway 539, known locally as Guide Meridian.
