how do they remove the stone in front of where they will be buried, can someone tell me how they bury people in walls?

It's my understanding that they build long narrow cabinets in which the caskets fit snugly. The stone "covering" has to be removed, and there is a hefty fee for that, let me tell ya.
In more modern terms, a crypt is most often a stone chambered burial vault used to store the deceased. Crypts are usually found in cemeteries and under public religious buildings, such as churches or cathedrals, but are also occasionally found beneath mausolea or chapels on personal estates

Depends on whether they're buried horizontally or vertically. Also on whether they're buried legitmately or not.
In some old cemetaries there are walls about 8 to 10 ft thick, and niches for coffins set horizontally in the walls. Some cemetaries in New Orleans are built this way. Also some church walls in Europe are built this way.
As for burying people in walls as a criminal act, they would probalby be bricked in, vertically, as in Cask of Amontidillo (sp?) or Dark Shadows. Ugh!

Read the Cask of Amontillado.
Or a history of Chicago mafia figures.

Tear down the old one and build a new one over the body.
