Mckeesport Man Ordered Held For Trial On Charges He Flushed Grandparents’ Ashes Down Toilet

MCKEESPORT, Pa. (AP) — A judge has ruled that a western Pennsylvania man must stand trial on charges he flushed his grandparents’ ashes down a toilet after his mother kicked him out of her home. Thomas Wells faces two counts of abuse of a corpse and a criminal mischief charge. McKeesport police say the Pittsburgh man had been staying with his mother for a brief time before she asked him to leave last September. She says a relative later told her what happened with the ashes. Wells has denied flushing the ashes.
