Hull Crown Court heard this morning that Robert Bush, 48, defrauded 226 people by charging them for funeral plans he was not authorised to set up, and kept the money, which amounted to more than half a million pounds over almost 12 years.This is the fourth day of a five-day sentence in which Bush is to be sentenced for 67 offences spanning 12 years and affecting hundreds of victims at his business, Legacy Independent Funeral Directors in Hull.Bush breached the trust placed in him by grieving families "on an almost industrial scale", by keeping bodies for months after they should have been cremated, giving out the wrong ashes, taking money for funeral plans without making any of the arrangements, and stealing charity donations collected at services.
