- Farmington Hills man charged after dumping animal remains at Southfield cemetery
A Farmington Hills man, Dwight Respess, was charged with illegal dumping after Southfield police investigated repeated incidents of animal remains, including red snapper and pigeons, left at Holy Sepulchre Cemetery. Respess claimed the acts were part of a personal religious practice to protect him from death, but police emphasized the charge relates solely to the unlawful disposal.
