The HBO show The Mortician has left viewers with a lot to think about. The main subject, David Sconce, made some pretty shocking statements in the final episode. He hinted at serious crimes, saying there are "three things" he can't talk about publicly. This has sparked a lot of questions and speculation.

Sconce's comments have raised eyebrows, especially since he's been linked to some suspicious deaths. One notable case involves a rival mortuary owner, Timothy Waters. Prosecutors thought Sconce might have poisoned Waters with oleander. However, tests on Waters' body didn't find any traces of the poison. Sconce's lawyer insisted Waters died of a heart attack, and the charges were dropped.

The show also delves into Sconce's past, which includes a long list of illegal activities. His family's funeral home was infamous for mass cremations and other shady practices. Sconce himself has served time for crimes like mutilating bodies and conducting mass cremations for just $55 per body. He's currently on lifetime probation.

One of the most chilling parts of the show is when an expert, Cornell University's Jack Henion, suggests that Sconce might have gotten away with murder. Henion points out that the absence of oleander in Waters' body doesn't prove Sconce is innocent. The poison could have broken down over time. Henion even mentions that Sconce had a book detailing how hard it is to detect oleander poisoning.

Sconce's past is filled with more than just the Waters case. There's also the death of his employee, Ron Jordan, who was found hanged. While investigators ruled it a suicide, some suspected Sconce's involvement. Sconce himself admits that people have wondered about his role in Jordan's death.

The show ends with Sconce dropping hints about other crimes he can't discuss. He mentions "three things" that "can't come back, " leaving viewers to wonder what he's really talking about. The director, Joshua Rofé, was shocked by Sconce's comments and hopes that justice will be served for any victims.

The Mortician has certainly given viewers a lot to chew on. It's a stark reminder that sometimes, the truth is stranger than fiction. The show's ending leaves many questions unanswered, but it's clear that Sconce's past is far from clean. Whether or not he will face consequences for his alleged crimes remains to be seen.
