Company Hired to Handle Katrina's Dead Has Tainted History
....The only problem -- Kenyon's parent company is Service Corporation International, a scandal-ridden, Texas-based company accused in a number of lawsuits for illegally discarding and desecrating corpses.
The state Department of Health and Hospitals says it was unaware of the company's legal troubles and was only doing what the governor had asked.
"We're going to do what the governor's office ask us to do," said DHH representative Bob Johannessen. "They wanted this firm to work here and we facilitated to have that contract signed."
When asked if the governor requested a background check on the company, Johannessen replied he didn't know.
