TOLEDO -- New details on an investigation into a former worker at a West Toledo funeral home who is accused of fondling a woman's corpse.

Toledo police have arrested 57-year-old Larry Clement and charged him with abuse of a corpse.

Police say he inappropriately touched the body of 51-year-old Brenda Shular-Cameron at H. H. Birkenkamp Funeral Home on Tremainsville.

The woman's family claims the funeral home offered them a free funeral and casket in exchange for not calling police.
