The grave of Linda Louise Torello was repeatedly desecrated — allegedly by her ex-husband, nearly 48 years after their divorce.

Her children, Michael Murphy and Renee Eichler Barragan, say they kept finding urine and feces on their mother’s grave at a cemetery in the New Jersey / New York area.

After months of distress, the family installed hidden cameras. The footage, they say, shows the man returning again and again to urinate on the grave, often in the early mornings — while his current wife reportedly waited in the car.

The videos were turned over to police. The man was identified and warned, and the case was reported by multiple local news outlets, sparking widespread outrage.

What kind of anger lasts nearly half a century — even beyond death?
