SAN ANTONIO -- A local family is desperate to be united with their
daughter after her body was stolen from inside of a San Antonio funeral
home following her service Saturday. "We just want our daughter's
remains returned so we can have some closure to our grief," said Tim
Mott, Julie Mott's father.
According to investigators, the body of
Julie Mott, 26, was taken from her casket at Mission Parks Funeral
Chapel North following her service on August 15. "It's really quite
concerning," said SAPD Sgt. Javier Salazar. "We are hoping that
the public may be able to help assist us."
Sgt. Salazar said
Mott's service ended around 1 or 1:30 in the afternoon, which is when
a casket with her remains was taken into a private visitation area in
the back of the funeral home. The funeral home was locked up and secured
around 4:30 p.m.
Police believe somewhere in that three-hour
window, someone took Mott's body out of the casket. That suspect and
Mott's remains remain a mystery. "Our intelligence unit has been
investigating it literally around the clock," said Sgt. Salazar. "And so
we're hoping that the public that hears about this case may be able to
shed some light on it."
