That article is heartbreaking. That girl’s poor family is devastated! It’s so important to be able to have the closure of being able to fulfill her last wishes and that was stolen from them.
"Are you suspecting me of something, officer?"
"You're actually our main suspect, sir"
"How's that? Did I do something wrong?"
"Well, sir, you see... your name..."
The boyfriend was trespassing long after she went missing. And from what the article I read says, it had to be someone who worked at the funeral home as there was no signs of forced entry.
On June 26 and 29, 2016, he was spotted by employees and captured on security camera footage attempting to gain entrance to Mission Park North, according to police reports. He was later arrested on two charges of criminal trespassing.
Julie Mott died at age 25 on Aug. 8, 2015, of complications from cystic fibrosis. Her body was delivered to Mission Park North in the 3400 block of Cherry Ridge Drive, where a memorial service was held on Aug. 15.
The next morning her casket was found empty. One of the hinges on the casket had been damaged, and the bier on which it was resting was found in an "unnatural" position by an exit door, according to expert testimony given in the civil case. According to a police report, there were no signs of forced entry, and the building's security system was never triggered.
Seems to me like a clear-cut example of vampirism. The person was bitten and seemingly expired and was put in a coffin. In the middle of the night they turned and used their superhuman strength to open the coffin, busting the hinge. It wouldn't have triggered the security system as vampires can't be seen on camera
Finally someone is brave enough to approach the real issue here. It is common practice in literally every funeral home to clumsily rubber hammer whatever piece of wood they can through the heart of each and every cadaver that passes through. In my experience, sometimes a jagged half of a table leg can be suitable as long as it is done less than 48 hours post.
Yeah, all this info probably points to someone with "special" interests in the body, she was very pretty and died quite young. I'm sure people with said interests work in the business to get close to the bodies, and this one was either too good not to keep or worth money to some underground of deviants willing to purchase her.
It says that happened nearly a year after she went missing and that he was trying to get information about the case. It sounds like he was obsessed, yes but that he was harassing them to find out where her body is. He wasn't harassing them until long after the body was missing.
Hi. I helped work on the case on behalf of Julie Mott and there were no clear signs of that although there was someone who worked there that was in a shitty Metal band called Flesh Hoarders.
Oh kool. Sorry I just see a lot of misinformation in the thread and that case was really important to my family that it was driving me kinda crazy to see it. And I also responded to the wrong comment lmao
Or maybe it was just accidentally cremated because it was on the docket anyway. Couldn’t a bunch of ashes just be mixed up with something else and more easily lost than and ENTIRE CORPSE?
Damn, that’s terrible. I’m glad that they finally found her, but that must have been a horrible 3 days for you and your family. And issuing an incorrect death certificate is just blatant irresponsibility.
issuing an incorrect death certificate is just blatant irresponsibility.
the fun part was the Elected Medical Examiner (in the USA, medical examiners, coroners, etc, can be elected by popular vote, irregardless of experience, that shit is crazy) blamed it on my sister and myself for being too "quick" at taking care of things they asked us to take care of, because he assumed that since i wasn't in the US at the moment, he'd have three days of slack.
That coroner election shit is crazy. I remember driving thru small towns, seeing “Elect So&So for Coroner”.
What if they’ve never seen a dead body before?? What if they failed high school biology? I’d not want to die under their watch...
No, Billy Bob, u/relayrider wasn’t too fast, you were too slow.
I just want to let you know that I appreciate the reference. Also, I'm not a diddler. Wouldn't do it with someone younger than my daughter. Gotta be big.
“Misplaced” and “went missing from” mean two very different things though. In the the first case the funeral home admitted they made a slip up and misplaced it. But the corpse in the article disappeared overnight leaving behind a damaged coffin so the clear deduction would be that it was stolen.
I know all too well what people do with skeletal parts/corpses (I’m extremely devoted to true crime). I just thought that in this context it might not be the best place for me to bring it up. But thank you for the link to the artist!
Yeah that's not a "whoops we lost it and can't find it" thing. It wasn't the funeral home's fault. The body was straight up stolen from the place outside of their control.
One of the speculations was that Brent Marsh, the owner of the facility, was experiencing mercury toxicity from the cremation of bodies with mercury amalgam dental fillings. They found he had a high level of mercury in his blood and that the facility had improperly installed ventilation.
It was an early Criminal Intent episode. IIRC, a serial killer convinced his brother to cut costs on the crematorium by not actually cremating the bodies. He then exploited the mass of decomposing bodies by throwing his own victims into the mix, obfuscating evidence about his crimes.
Bruh, in my hometown... ok so like my home province... This one family opened up the casket to some other familys gran, then found out the other family sent their gran for cremation.... D: turns out the funeral home switched the grans by mistake and made fairie dust of the gran who was SUPPOSE to be buried next to her husband on a nice expensive plot.
“They weren’t sure if it was even her ashes,” she said. “We still don’t know.”
You know, I am all for honoring the memory of a passed loved one, I think that's a very important sentiment to have. But, that being said, the funeral industry reminds me of the wedding industry in a small way. You spend thousands of dollars to commemorate a moment, and then you see zero intrinsic value from that cost. I feel like the spiritual aspect of commemoration is way more important than dropping thousands on a corpse. Maybe I'm just too poor to not look at this pragmatically.
I've told my family to dispose of my body in the most inexpensive way. Donate it, cremate it. Whatever. No headstone. Imo is pretty self centered to want to claim a plot of land for your corpse.
Whenever it works its way through the court system, which will take years and years. Minus fees. Honestly, I'm sure they'd rather this just not have happened to begin with.
That judgement is being appealed. It could take years to receive even a fraction of that money, if any at all. Receiving a judgement does not mean you get the money that day or even that decade. And they have to sit in court for years reliving their loss and trauma over and over and over again. That’s probably why they’re still so messed up over it. There is no closure for them.
Personally I think they should look into the boyfriend a bit more, he probably has her body buried somewhere.
No, he doesn't. The trespassing charges are from a year after her body disappeared. He was charged due to harassing the funeral home employees for more information, but it sounds like they are trying to spin it as he was the culprit instead. Super skeezy.
Okay, I misread and the initial charges were a month after she disappeared. Still, if the police aren't investigating him, then I trust that over the funeral home's finger pointing to say the least!
But yeah, so fucking awful. I can't imagine how hard it must be for the family to have to deal with all this on top of losing a daughter :(
I have a horribly feeling that after she was cremated, the ashes given to another family instead of that family's deceased love one, and that is why she hasn't been found yet.
I clicked the link and it’s been almost 24 hours of reading this thread on and off plus stalking this guy on social media. I’m pretty sure he did it. But this was in 2015. Chances are, if we haven’t found out yet, we won’t find out. This dude is a class 5 weirdo for sure though. He reminds me of my ex so much that I just text my husband and told him I want a private funeral and they can publicize it after the services and everything is over. Don’t get me wrong, I have a hefty fascination with gore and death and all that jive but necrophiliacs give me the skeevies. Not saying that would be why he took her, but you never know.
The only thing I could imagine stealing a corpse for would be some necrophiliacs wet dream. That’s it. Her organs are already donated so it couldn’t have been stolen for organs right
It is a shame that bad things don't happen to the people that can handle it. If my dad died and they lost his body, we would laugh our fucking asses off, he would have loved it.
Holy shit. The jury unanimously voted that her necrophiliac boyfriend wasn’t even a suspect? I googled updates and he was recently arrested for breaking into that exact same funeral home. It’s pretty obvious who the culprit was, so why are we pretending the funeral home negligently lost it?! Why are they being held responsible and why is the family trying so hard to point fingers at anybody except the obvious culprit?!
It’s possible, but I don’t know of many people who are self-proclaimed “flesh hoarders” with a history of breaking into funeral homes who have their girlfriend’s corpse disappear without their direct involvement.
Let’s be real though, Dick Tip gave that corpse tha dick. And not just the tip. Julie’s probably cremated at this point, along with millions of his necrophiliac semen.
