A $20,000 reward is being offered for information leading to the return of a body stolen from a Texas funeral home.
Julie Mott died on August 8th from Cystic Fibrosis. Her funeral took place at Mission Park on August 15th, what would have been Julie’s 26th birthday. She was scheduled to be cremated this past Monday, but now the family is just hoping they can somehow get her body back.
"She was removed from here and taken to a visitation suite and would have moved on Monday to be cremated at the crematory, to Mission South," says, Dick Tips, owner of the Mission Park Funeral Home.
The funeral ended around 1:30 and the building was locked up around 4:30. The next morning, it was discovered that Julie’s body had been taken.
