Police at Munich Airport got a surprise during their search of a wooden box being transported by a 74-year-old passenger that turned out to contain the bones of the woman's dead husband. Customs officials, a doctor and prosecutors were called in, and they determined no crime had been committed. After questioning the woman and her 52-year-old daughter, police learned the pair were on their way from Greece back to their native Armenia via Munich and Kiev. The mother said her husband died in 2008 and was buried in Thessaloniki, Greece, and that she and her daughter decided to bring his remains home to a final resting place in Armenia. Following the short investigation, the two women were allowed to continue on their journey with the boxed remains.(https://fxn.ws/3g0DUbz)

A
Long Island, New York criminal defendant tried faking his death to
avoid a jail sentence, but the phony death certificate his lawyer
submitted had a glaring spelling error that made it a dead giveaway
for a fraud, prosecutors said Tuesday. 25-year-old Robert Berger of
Huntington, New York, now faces up to four years in prison if
convicted in the alleged scheme. That’s in addition to pending
sentences for earlier guilty pleas to charges of possession of a
stolen Lexus and attempted grand larceny of a truck — punishment
prosecutors say he was looking to avoid. “It will never cease to
amaze me the lengths some people will go to to avoid being held
accountable on criminal charges,” Nassau County District Attorney
Madeline Singas said in a telephone
interview.(https://bit.ly/3kQl8ax)
