HBO unveils its gripping true-crime docuseries, The Mortician, tonight.
A tragedy unfolds in the heart of Pasadena with the Lamb Funeral Home stealing the spotlight, and not for the right reasons. This family-owned and trustworthy mortuary, center stage in HBO's latest true crime docuseries, The Mortician, has morphed into a scandalous and sinister institution.
Tune in tonight, June 1, 9 PM Eastern Time, as the docuseries pitches into the ocean of a family-owned funeral home that masqueraded under a shroud of 'decency and propriety', cruelly exploiting people in their moments of profound grief and despair.
This disturbing synopsis, courtesy of HBO, paints a picture of David Sconce, the Lamb family's prodigal son who orchestrated the downfall, abusing the deceased and the trust of the public in numerous ways to increase the family business's earnings. Sconce, now a free man having served his time, offers an exclusive and chilling account of the lucrative multibillion-dollar mortuary industry's darker underbelly in the series.
Joshua Rofé, HBO's director, and Jonah Hill, Hollywood star and producer, have seamlessly woven together emotional interviews with victims' families and former employees' testimonials to weave a chilling narrative of the Pasadena scandal in the '80s.
