A Houston area funeral home is being sued by a family after their deceased son's body was treated horrifically at the funeral home and left to rot.
According to a lawsuit, Julietta Guerra is seeking $1,000,000 in monetary relief from her horrific experience with Integrity Funeral Home in south Houston. In a release from Dolcefino ConsultingGuerra's son died unexpectedly on Feb. 9, 2021, and she left his body in the care of Integrity Funeral Home. The funeral home director, Hilda Rojas, assured the mother they would embalm him and "they would make him look like he was real.
Rojas is said to have called Guerra to tell her the power was off, and the funeral would have to be postponed to a later day. Around Feb. 21, the lawsuit states Rojas told Guerra she could come to see Silva and the funeral could be had on Feb. 23. Rojas reportedly did not say anything to the mother or family about the state of the body, reports say.*EDITORS NOTE: This video is from a previous story.

Records say Guerra asked Rojas why Silva was bleeding, and his nails were black when he had been embalmed, but Rojas had not responded. A liquid was also oozing out of his ears and after Rojas tried to stick Q-tips in them to stop it, she said, "I don't know what this is."
