The Mayor of Greenville has confirmed the discovery of human remains in a local storage unit, sparking a thorough investigation by local and state law enforcement. The remains of three people were found, leading to the arrest of Albert Creath, the previous owner of Creath Memorial Services, on charges of improper desecration of corpses. Creath had been using the storage unit to conduct funeral and burial services after losing his license and business, which raised serious concerns in the community.
Mayor Errick D. Simmons expressed his shock at the discovery and offered his thoughts and prayers to the families affected by the tragic situation. He emphasized that Greenville values dignity, respect, and the rule of law, and will not tolerate any actions that violate those principles. Mayor Simmons called on anyone with information to come forward and assist authorities in their investigation.
The Washington County Sheriff’s Department and other local law enforcement agencies will continue to investigate the incident, with Chief Deputy Billy Barber overseeing the case. Mayor Simmons reassured the public that his administration remains committed to transparency, public safety, and ensuring that justice is served.
