NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — A Brooklyn man whose brother died in California last month is still waiting for his cremated remains to be sent back to our area.

He blames the U.S. Postal Service for losing his loved one, CBS 2’s John Slattery reported Wednesday.

Ken Schecter said he’s been waiting for the delivery of his brother’s remains for the last three weeks.

“Horrible, deplorable, inexcusable … how insensitive,” Schecter said.
