Photos of exhumed corpses that were boned below the waist were released by authorities. Prosecutors said the defendants had made a crude attempt to cover their tracks by sewing PVC pipe back into the bodies in time for open-casket wakes.

Mastromarino entered the guilty plea in exchange for 18 to 54 years in prison.

Mastromarino also faces charges in Philadelphia where he expects to plead guilty as well, and has asked the court to allow him to serve any sentences concurrently.
