A Virginia funeral home accused of mishandling bodies awaiting burial at Arlington National Cemetery has been fined $50,000. The Virginia Board of Funeral Directors and Embalmers and National Funeral Home signed a consent order Monday. National agreed to the fine, two years probation and a half-dozen unannounced inspections per year. A spokeswoman for Service Corporation International, the funeral home's parent company, says the agreement is not an admission of guilt. She says it's a way to settle the issue. A former employee had accused the Falls Church funeral home of storing bodies in hallways and on unrefrigerated storage racks in a garage. Funeral home officials acknowledged they stored bodies in the garage, but never for long. Related Stories a.. Report: 'Disturbing and Disrespectful' Conditions at Funeral Home b..
