Funeral Home Sends Son’s Brain in Unmarked Box, Sparking Lawsuit and Outrage
In a recent lawsuit, two funeral homes are accused of a gruesome error: allegedly providing grieving parents with their deceased son’s brain in an unmarked box. The box, shipped between funeral homes and left in the family’s car, began to leak and emit a foul odor, with the father inadvertently handling the brain matter. The Butlers’ attorney asserts that both funeral homes were negligent in their handling of the remains and caused severe emotional distress. The Butlers seek answers and compensation, hoping the lawsuit will prevent similar incidents from occurring in the future, as they still do not know if the brain was buried with the rest of his remains.
