   Deplorable Redneck to All   
   U-Haul hands down lifetime ban to Cuomo

   Rental company U-Haul has reportedly cut ties with the Brooklyn   
   funeral home caught storing dozens of bodies inside their   
   unrefrigerated trucks.   
      
   Andrew T. Cleckley Funeral Services in Flatlands is no longer   
   welcome to rent from the company, U-Haul sources told TMZ.   
      
   The U-Haul trucks used by the funeral home to hold corpses are   
   also being decommissioned so they can be deep cleaned, according   
   to the report.   
      
   “This is a wrongful, egregious and inhumane use of our   
   equipment,” company bigs told the outlet.   
      
   “Our trucks are designed for household moves,” the sources said.   
   “Properly caring for the remains of people’s loved ones requires   
   vehicles suited specifically for that purpose. Our trucks   
   absolutely cannot be rented for this reason.”   
      
   The ghastly use of the trucks was uncovered Wednesday when   
   workers at a nearby business alerted police of a foul smell   
   coming from the truck, sources have said.   
      
   “It was bad,” said an employee of the Dollar General store next   
   door.   
      
   “Disgusting,” a neighbor had said while watching a worker sweep   
   a clear liquid out the rear doors of a U-Haul truck parked on   
   Avenue M.   
      
   Dr. Howard Zucker, the state’s health commissioner, said   
   Thursday the funeral faced possible “fines and suspensions,” and   
   vowed that “we’ll enforce this as much as possible.”   
      
   “We have issued guidance out to all funeral homes that we will   
   not tolerate any of that kind of behavior,” Zucker said during   
   Gov. Cuomo’s daily coronavirus briefing in Albany.
