Funeral ends in chaos: Sarg carrier falls into an open grave!
Philadelphia, USA - On March 21, a tragic incident occurred in Philadelphia during the funeral of Benjamin Aviles, which shocked the participants. The coffin, which was just transported from the corpse car to the grave site, suddenly fell into the excavated grave after the wooden border had given in. This not only led to a dramatic fall, but also to injuries among the coffin carriers and mourning guests, several of whom ended with impairments on legs, back and hands. The deceased's son was particularly injured when the coffin fell on him and he briefly lost consciousness.
A mourners had filmed the incident, and the shocking video was soon spread in social networks. The stepdaughter of the deceased, Maribelle Rodriguez, expressed concern about the stability of the construction in advance, which finally led to this accident. Rodriguez blamed both the funeral home and the cemetery administration, namely the GreenMount Cemetery, for the accident and called for financial compensation and an official apology.
injuries and consequences for the family
According to reports, several men suffered injuries, including one who was unconscious in the mud as the attempts to recover the coffin failed. Rodriguez also drew attention to the inadequate conditions at the grave. The accumulated damage to the wooden boards were still visible days after the incident and were described as softened and insecure. The family is horrified by the conditions and the defective preparation on the part of the funeral home and the cemetery administration. Although no life -threatening injuries were reported, the emotional damage for the family remains noticeable.These incidents shed light on the general funeral laws and obligations that are defined in Germany and other countries. While the right to burial is used to guarantee the dignity and the respectful handling of deceased, it is not uncommon for such tragic incidents to happen if the legal requirements are not observed. According to the funeral laws, the next members of the deceased are obliged to carry out the burial unless special agreements were made in advance.
claims for responsibility and legal consequences
The heirs of the deceased are not only responsible for the execution of the funeral, but also for the application of the costs associated with it. Legally, this is anchored in § 1968 BGB, according to which the funeral costs are among the estate liabilities. In this case, the survivors ask serious questions about responsibility and expectations of the cemetery administration and the burial institutes. So far, however, there has been no comment on the allegations of these institutions.
