Two Hermiston residents are charged with abuse of a corpse after leaving a man's body in a parked van for four nights, officials said.

The body of Matthew Eastwood, 52, was found mid-morning Tuesday in a van parked behind a Hermiston-area restaurant, said Umatilla County District Attorney Dean Gushwa.
