Could you provide more information? This is excessively vague. Colibri General Questions Moderator ---

> [@Colibri](#): > > Could you provide more information? This is excessively vague. > > Colibri > General Questions Moderator Oh sorry, **Colibri** , I thought the story was well known on the SMB because there was a lot of discussion here about it last August. But you’re right; the question was too vague. Nutshell: Julie Mott was a 25-year-old woman who died of cystic fibrosis in Austin, Texas in August 2015. Her body was stolen from her coffin in the funeral home as it awaited transportation to a crematorium. More details: > **['Obsessed' Man Reportedly Eyed In Theft Of Julie Mott's Body](https://www.huffpost.com/entry/obsessed-man-reportedly-eyed-in-theft-of-julie-motts-body_n_55df4613e4b029b3f1b1e8e9)** > > "We just want our daughter's remains returned." ---

I believe it still hasn’t been found because the latest updates are from the end of 2015 and they still list it as unsolved. [http://www.ksat.com/news/law-enforcement-still-trying-to-solve-big-crimes-in-2015](http://www.ksat.com/news/law-enforcement-still-trying-to-solve-big-crimes-in-2015) ---

Apparently her parents are suing the funeral home… > **[Julie Mott’s family sues over her stolen corpse](https://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/real-life/true-stories/did-julie-motts-obsessive-exboyfriend-steal-her-corpse/news-story/8bfa18d80735a3b17ba50ab284832c21)** > > UPDATE: THE family of Julie Mott, whose body was stolen from a Texas funeral home on what would have been her 26th birthday, is suing the business for gross negligence. ---
