And one night, David's goons show up to Tim's office while he's there and they beat the out of him, like really badly.

Lucky for Tim, he survives this attack.

And so of course, he continues to talk about this and he continues to express his opinions.

He talks to other funeral directors.

He even plans on writing an article which would expose David and his business.

And eventually, all this gets back to David.

And so David feels like he's gotta stop Tim.

In fact, he feels like he needs to get rid of him for good.

So, allegedly, one night, he invites Tim out to a dinner meeting, and they meet up, and when Tim's not looking, he puts oleander poison in his food.

And that, unfortunately, later unalives him.

But then in 1986, something terrible happens.

One day, one of David's workers forgets to turn off the oven and kaboom, the whole crematorium catches fire and it goes up in flames and ultimately the whole building is destroyed.

So now David has nowhere to continue his cremation business.

But the bodies still keep coming in.

I mean, funeral homes are still sending him corpses every single day.

So he needs a bigger place, somewhere remote, somewhere where no one will notice what he's doing.

And eventually, he finds a place like that.

a warehouse way out in the Mojave Desert, far away from any residential areas.

And inside this warehouse, he installs much bigger industrial ovens, and he starts his whole cremation business up again.

And at this place, David and his workers are now burning up to 200 bodies at once.
