The Lamb Funeral Home in Pasadena, California was founded in 1929 by Charles F. Lamb. Charles passed the business on to his son, Lawrence Lamb, who in turn passed it on to his daughter Laurieanne Lamb-Sconce. It was a trusted family-run business until a gruesome scandal was uncovered on January 20, 1987. In the 1980s, the funeral home on Orange Grove Boulevard was run by Jerry Sconce and his wife, Laurieanne Lamb-Sconce, the granddaughter of Charles F. Lamb. The crematory was run by their son, David Sconce. In the first year that David ran the cremation services, business went from 194 cremations annually to 1,675 and continued to exponentially grow to 8,173 in 1985. The two ovens at the crematory were running 16 to 18 hours a day and David would have the bodies packed in, sometimes making it a competition with employees to see who could fit the most bodies into an oven. His employees dubbed him "Little Hitler". After an unsuccessful bid to construct a large crematorium failed and their crematorium burned down, David Sconce began cremating remains in kilns which led to criminal investigations being opened. Jerry and David were arrested on January 29, 1987, under the suspicion of stealing gold from corpses. A former employee testified that David had boasted about making US$5,000–6000 a month selling the gold to a jeweler. Laurieanne and Jerry were later charged with embezzling $100,000 (equivalent to $277,000 in 2024) in interest from 172 pre-paid funeral trust accounts. The three family members were initially charged with 41 criminal counts, most of them felonies.
