Former Funeral Home Owner Wanted After Woman's Body AND 30 Cremated Remains Found at His Former Denver Residence

An arrest warrant has been issued by the Denver Police Department for Miles Harford, the former owner of Apollo Funeral and Cremation Services, following the discovery of human remains at his previous residence in Denver. Authorities allege that Harford, 33, is wanted for investigation on charges of abuse of a corpse, forgery, and theft. The investigation was initiated after a call to the police on February 6, reporting suspicious findings at a property on South Quitman Street, where Harford was recently evicted. Upon arrival, law enforcement officials, alongside personnel from the Denver Office of the Medical Examiner, uncovered disturbing evidence. During a press briefing, Cmdr. Matt Clark revealed that the discovery included the remains of a woman and more than 30 individuals who had been cremated, all found within the premises from which Harford was removed. The remains were found stored in various containers, including boxes hidden in a crawlspace of the house. Further inspection led to the discovery of a hearse parked at the property, containing the body of a deceased 63-year-old woman, identified as Christina Rosales, who passed away from natural causes in August 2022. Shockingly, it was revealed that the remains previously provided to Rosales' family were not hers, indicating a disturbing deception orchestrated by Harford. George Rosales, Christina's husband, expressed his dismay at the revelation, stating, "We were misguided. We were... just knowing she was in the back of the car, hearse, outside, just covered with a blanket. That’s not how someone is supposed to be put to rest." Further investigation led to the discovery of six additional urns containing cremated remains inside a U-Haul parked outside the property. Authorities estimate that the recovered remains span from individuals who died between 2012 and 2021. As investigators work to identify the remains and return them to their rightful families, the Denver Police Department urges clients of Apollo Funeral and Cremation Services, particularly those who may have concerns or haven't received their loved one's remains, to contact the Denver Police Major Crimes Division and Denver Police Victim Assistance Unit at 720-913-6610. In light of the circumstances, DNA testing on the unlabelled remains found at the residence will not be conducted due to the loss of DNA integrity resulting from the cremation process. The search for Harford continues as authorities aim to bring closure to the affected families and seek justice in this disturbing case. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
