Raw Story: FEMA and then Blanco outsourced the body count from Hurricane Katrina ... to a firm whose parent company is known for its "experience" at hiding and dumping bodies.

Kenyon is a subsidiary of Service Corporation International (SCI), a scandal-ridden Texas-based company operated by a friend of the Bush family. Recently, SCI subsidiaries have been implicated in illegally discarding and desecrating corpses.
