A former Pasadena mortician is leaving Montana for California, where he was being sought for violating conditions of his lifetime parole, the Missoulian newspaper reported.
David Wayne Sconce was involved in the Lamb Funeral Home case in Pasadena in the late 1980s, according to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office.
It was during that time when Sconce was accused of mutilating corpses and mishandling cremations at his family’s funeral home, the newspaper reported.
Sconce, 56, served 2 1/2 years in prison after pleading guilty to 21 charges in connection with that case, according to the Los Angeles Times.
The conditions in that case included the lifetime parole, according to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office.
Sconce appeared Wednesday in Missoula County Justice Court and agreed to waive extradition to California, where he’s sought for persistent violations of his lifetime parole, the Missoulian reported.
In Missoula County, Montana, Sconce was sentenced last year to five years’ probation on a federal charge of being a felon in possession of a firearm.
