An Expert in His Field


Police Investigate Whether Former Calvert Cemetery Owner Faked His Death - washingtonpost.com
"Former Calvert County cemetery owner Larry Deffenbaugh was convicted last year of pocketing nearly a million dollars that customers thought would pay for coffins, headstones and grave markers. Now, police are investigating the possibility that he's moved on to a more elaborate scheme: faking his death."

If every there was a gentlemen that could fake an elaborate death, it'd be a cemetary owner, I reckon.  Now, this story, from start to finish, is pretty darn awful. 

This gets into some serious yama territory! No stealing! No coveting! No lying! Moral Discipline!  But, alas and anon, this guy really pulled a major yama-fleecing. And to use someone's lost loved ones... how terrible. 

If he did fake his own death, is he still running around somewhere, pretending to haunt an old library? Should we call in a big green van with a dog?
