You are right, They did.

I think this was actually covered by Adam and Jamie on Mythbusters.  As
I remember they put a dead pig in concrete and yes it did decompose and
leave a pig shaped void in the concrete.

Subject: [TN] NTC: Friday type question

Here is a question to ponder over for this Friday type day. Yes, Jimmy
Hoffa was in the discussion.

If a human body was to be placed in a bed of curing concrete, would the
body decompose? If the entire body is encased in the middle of said
concrete that is say 4 sq ft thick on all sides, would there be any
microscopic deterioration or would the little critters still infiltrate
and do there "thing"? This was just a casual discussion amongst
co-workers so I thought it would be a good Friday question. Any takers?
Oh, if the body did fully decompose, would the structural integrity of
the concrete be affected?
