Shannon Kent, 47, pleaded guilty in December to two misdemeanor counts of unlawful cremation acts, according to the Fifth Judicial District Attorney’s Office.
The sentencing is related to Kent’s handling of the remains of a stillborn baby in 2019. The parents of the deceased baby complained to law enforcement that they suspected the cremains they received was not of their child. They also did not receive proper paperwork, such as a death certificate, from Kent.
Kent was found guilty of second-degree official misconduct in 2021 and received six months unsupervised probation. In 2022, Kent and his wife were found not guilty of charges related to the handling of the remains of a truck driver who died in 2020.
