- After an Iraq War soldier's death, a tragic aftermath unfolds as a devastated mother fights her son's widow for his abandoned grave. www.judgejp.com/
I am a military wife and I pray my relationship with my in laws will never ever be as toxic as this. May his soul RIP despite all this drama.
I'm sure if check the wife's accountings you'll see why she wasn't "able" to just call that poor lady and sympathize in her pain.
400.000$, ask for 15.000$ refund without shame and claiming that the soldier asked to be burnt what a coincidence that the army would gave her 10.000 dollars/year if she did.
As a French and so American ally citizen, I appreciate your bravery and you values.
Have a nice day.
I never see my husband's family. He been gone 12 years
Simone Scott-Rhone the reason why this relationship is toxic is because the the daughter in-law is a total cold hearted twat. A mother’s love for her child is so much stronger than a wife’s love for her husband! Not even in the same category
@@tanyabrown332 ;Now so true about a mother's love,even more reason once she gained custody of the grave love should have made her spare herself the knowledge of what remaining remains, forced to listen to by inconsiderate judge she and husband"the pastor" lied about Jew comment lost credibility then son's wife she's young and said nothing about love so do you think$5000. hurt her pocket Mom and Dad should be thankful no grands with her exist they had friction before son died probably want hear from daughter-in-law never again
Helena Washington.. id say the daughter-in-law is of the Princess age. That’s the age where she will only think of herself. (The young ones)
I think after being televised and discredited on national television will make her see the whole thing differently. At the moment she sees herself as the victim. It want be until she is years older that she will understand the magnitude of what she has done.
The men who died with Spc. Brandon A. Meyer were Sgt. James E. Craig, Staff Sgt. Gary W. Jeffries, Spc. Evan A. Marshall and Pvt. Joshua A.R. Young.
If anyone was wondering. Or cared........
Thank you for remembering those fine servicemen
IB2EZ2C much love and respect to those who gave the ultimate sacrifice. they gave their lives for our freedom. I won't forget their names.prayers to the families. and to you. take care.
Thank you to everyone who has sacrificed their life for our country. May they rest in heaven.
May they their souls rest in peace. 😢
RIP military men are true heroes thanks for sharing.
I can't believe she asked "what remains?"
After the mother said she didn't ask, the judge should have left it at that, instead of asking the wife.
@@THEDISH54 The mother said that after the question was already answered.
@@sweetsweet81 No, she said she didn't want to know when she was first asked. That straight away should have told the judge not to go further with it. but she did.
Agreed. The details really didn't seem important for this case. And even if she really needed to know, she could have at least done it without having everyone hear it.
Dave K because the judge is a piece of shit that wants to act tough!
Htotha Hizzie how do you prepare to know that they found your sons legs after 6 months??This dude think just like that judge did for a min smh
As a U.S. Army military widow, this case makes me sob. The deceased young soldier's grieving parents should never have been put through this horrific ordeal. I have no kind words for the widow.
I have no kind word about his fanatic ugly “religious” parents .
Suing a 20 year old girl paralyzed with grief and depression . They should have given her support and helped her, not pick a fight with her. She’s still a kid, they are not. How do they expect her to handle this alone???
. I can’t imagine going through all this hardly out of my teens. It must have been seriously traumatizing . And the parents adding to that. That is really cold hearted!!
@@malina1239
Really?
This young girl seemed to be the cause of all the problems.
The fact that she made over $400,000 from the taxpayers and could not put a headstone on her husband’s grave says everything!
The fact the mother was reviving all the bills shows this young woman did not honor her husband.
The fact that the military had to get in contact with the parents because they could not get ahold of the wife says how little she honored her husband.
I don’t believe a word the young woman said.
The fact that she sold her husband’s plot for $15,000. to his patents is beyond disgusting. If she loved her husband and honored him she should have just given them the rights to the grave.
She was not paralyzed from grief. If she was grieving then she should have reached out to his parents for support. Instead she ignored them and would not even tell them the day he was going to be payed to rest.
She was the one who was picking fights.
She was a bitch she didn't love him
@@bobp1016 what are you talking about???
She’s a 20 year old girl who lost her husband. She lives in a different state from his family, who by all accounts seem to have a real issue with her because of Jewish background and God only knows how they treated her beforehand. And they start issues with her because they want her to agree to have her husband buried in an entirely different state from her! Then they give a grieving young woman 8 months to get a headstone up and are already taking action to have her right to do so taken away from her?? Are you kidding me?!
And the mother ADMITS she didn’t CONTACT the widow to TELL her she was receiving bills for her son. How exactly was she supposed to know???? It’s fairly obvious that someone can’t pay a bill if they don’t know it exists.
This young woman was utterly pulled to pieces, by everyone here, she was barely given an opportunity to answer questions, let alone explain her side of things and this whole thing was horrendous.
His parents got caught being shady and lying over the Jewish comments, yet the girl is completely ignored when she tried to explain herself - like selling them the plot because they wanted to take it from her for the sister… it was like she didn’t speak.
Not saying she was perfect at all, but these parents aren’t poor innocent little victims here, that much is obvious. It’s awful they lost their son, it’s terrible. But it’s also a fact that when someone is married their spouse is the person with the right to make decisions.
My husband wouldn’t give a shit whether he had a headstone or not 8 months later. He’d want his family to look out for his wife and his children and help them through, not criticise and fight against every decision I made. And he has already made it clear he belongs with his family, as in, me and his children. So there’s no way being buried in an entirely different state would sit with him. He’d want his kids and his wife to have a place to come to remember and love him.
Aside from anything else - those parents are preaching the opposite of the Bible the “Christian” preacher father should well know. A man leaves his family and cleaves to his wife. Who is above all except God. You’d think good Christian people would know those most basic of Christian principles.
I have no kind words for the mother she has no say on were her son get to lay at rest that is up to the wife not her. She is a toxic woman who need her and her husband put in there place
That wife made me angry......
Chris Bona no one can blame you, and your profile picture shows you were or are enlisted, so i thank you for your service
***** your welcome. In my opinion all that money should go to those parents
Chris Bona Aye. Knowing what I know from my time in Iraq, with all these kids getting married just days before deploying... I might me wrong, but Iv'e seen too many newly married kids find out on Facebook and/or Skype that wifey is fucking X, Y, and Z. I think she was. Beyond fucked up.
You chicks out there, if you care for a guy, marry him when he gets back and you decide you can deal with how fucked up his head is. I know whereof I speak.
TheGunrunn3r I completely agree however there are a lot benefits of being married financially
Chris Bona we both know he was married to that dependahoe for the money. That kid god rest his soul could get someone who wasnt 300 pounds.
Im a retired marine and i see that crap alot. Chris thank ya for ya service and that kid paid the ultimate
This was hard to watch.....
iJemz Pissed me off
Mike D I'm pretty sure it pissed off everyone with military or without military connections.
iJemz ikr
senseless bitch
Mike D Pretty sad if she actually loved him. :c
iJemz I don't believe she did, honestly
She was cold and hardly cried. Only the mother showed any like...emotional pain
The Army took Perfect Care of me and my Fiance's remains when he gave his all! They offered to fly me to Germany where his body had been taken. I chose to let his Air Crew escort him home to the USA. The Army flew me to Dover to meet his body on arrival. We chose to bury him at Arlington National, but had been offered by the Army to fly him "Angel Flight" back to his home State of Texas. During his Final trip home, Chris was never alone, There was ALWAYS a member of the Army with Chris' body. The US Army takes care of their Fallen!
Sheryl Johnson my condolences to you and family. And thanks to your husband for his service. May his soul Rest In Peace 🙏🏽
If you were is fiancee, where were his parents or had they passed away and he didn't have no immediate family left.
@@patriciaalston7623 It's kind of intrusive don't you think ?
He'll be remember for his bravery.
@@patriciaalston7623 not sure why that question or what it has to do with her loss? Why even give a love one of an American soldier killed on duty a hard time?
Thank you for your sacrifice to America and it's people. I am so proud they took good care of you and your family and I hope they continue to. If you believe...God bless you ... much love and respect.
This judge was asking questions that didnt matter. Classless.
Respect for the all brave soldiers who served their country.
This episode Is a tragedy.
No one wins in this case. It's sad. Being a military brat, then navy wife, I've seen to much of this.
The judge was wrong though, the military (his command, unit, etc) can and will intervene depending the situation. There is truth in each of their stories. But the fact remains that the wife is the closest next of kin. They werent married even a year, so I'm sure this discussion never came up, on the other hand, the moment you sign your life away to the military you have to fill out next of kin, and have you make a will.
Most do talk about what their will says and what they want. We spoke about it very soon after he joined as well as when we got married. We also bring the subject up if we feel our minds have changed. I would like to go to the body farm in Memphis TN when I go, and my husband wants to be cremated and toss half in the ocean and the other half stay with me so he can... in his words "keep half so I can keep an eye on you, I'll haunt you in a good way, " lol.
Anyways, mom over stepped her boundaries bc of her grief. And the wife, well, girl you cant do these things to a mother. I hope your next mother/father in law will be treated with more respect.
The whole damn war was a tragedy to us.
So its ok for another country to invade yours and kill your people? Fuck soldiers army navy and the war.
YouTriggered _ Sounds like “you’re triggered”
Prayers
The mother just said she didn't want to know what the extra remains were and then the judge asks the wife what the extra remains were. Seriously wtf
i want to believe it was a test to see who has more empathy.
Yea I couldn't believe that. Did they have a choice on the televised setting? Because that was a very bad idea.
John Isaac Felipe i think it was all for views
Lydia K for a second I thought she was just ignorant, but I think the human curiosity hit too quickly before she realized.. my thoughts.
Right? I thought that was a slap in the face to the mom from Judge Pirro.
The only not horrible thing here is that poor young man never had to find out what kind of person his wife really was.
Maybe that's why he left in the first place.
Maybe that's why he left her to go to war????
You don't really know how the military works, huh? Or Wars.
Genius.
the only problem with that is he's watching this from upstairs
lancer D No...that's actually probably for the best.
lancer D, he probably knew when he was alive that she was a bad person. There's a common situation where you think you know a person after dating them, then you get married and find out what kind of a person they really are. The fact that he stayed married to her until he was killed is commendable, as it shows that he cared about her. I don't think the wife is all bad (most people are a mixture of bad and good), but what she did to her husband's burial place was despicable and truly evil. Judge JP was right in telling her off. And the woman's excuse for why she didn't put a marker on her husband's grave is lame. You don't need a Scripture on the grave, even if it was a favorite, it is better to just put a headstone on the grave than to let the grave be unmarked for something trivial. The man deserves a marked grave, and he wasn't getting even that. This is one of those cases where you have to shake your head and disbelief that something like this could ever happen. I have nothing but sympathy for that poor young man's parents. I send my condolences to the widow also, even though this trial has put her in a place where it is very hard for anyone to feel sympathy for her, because her act was infamous and disgusting.
Perfect judgement. That wife should be ashamed of herself for her greed.
The fact that the widow didn't bother to get a headstone and sold the grieving parents the plot tells me all I need to know about her character.
The military gets the headstone.
@@RVBadlands2015 But if they dropped the ball I'm sure she cold get a little something with over 400K.
Your not supposed to put a headstone up for the first year anyway, you have to let the dirt settle so the stone doesn't sink.
@@timthompson8235 strange that out of all the funerals I've been to, the headstone was put in within a month at the latest. But I doubt she held off for that reason.
@@tmendez31 You know it does depend on the stone, we've always had to wait a year because we demand large benches.
"In peace, sons bury their fathers. In war, fathers bury their sons." - Herodotus
Alexander Whitehorse
😳
Sadly enough it's the truth, war is a bitch, no parent should ever bury her kid, it's the worst thing that can happen. It happen very close to me almost 30 years ago, still can't talk about it and there's no day it's not going to my mind like it was yesterday, every single detail like watching a movie. I don't know why I watch this, it's like my heart is tearing in peaces. No one can judge here not informed and knowing every detail. I cant imagine this is real becourse most people a not able to talk about the death from your child.
Herodotus words still stand true.
Absolutely no need for the judge to ask what additional body parts were discovered when his mother clearly did not want to know. Shockingly unprofessional and tactless
It was later when the mother said she did not want to know.
@@mangkanor9403 Common sense not to describe which blown-apart body parts were discovered in front of their parents.
@@cbjones82 well. Ratings
Chris Jones she was trying to be inflammatory for TV... FUCK PIRRO. I was a fan of hers until this episode... she completely made the wife look worse than she was.
@@TemplarGaming316 Well in court you need all the information you can get and she just asked the question and the wife just said it which probably wasn't well thought out but it's not like she is gonna wait to think of something to say she needs the information to understand everything no matter how upsetting it may be. And the wife didn't do all this stuff while the mother did so much for the sons grave place and wouldn't have known about the parts if she did take responsibility
As a Military widow ( my husband died in Vietnam) I know the pain of losing a husband..sad story
So sorry for your loss! This widow clearly did not love her husband and had no respect for his family though.
@@michelegray5970 We don't know what the widow's feelings were because she was not allowed to fully explain anything. she felt attacked. There is a lot more to this store as it pertains to the relationship between the widow and her inlaws. they are not as nice and upstanding as they seemed. just take the comments that the father-in-law made to the widow. I am a wife of a retired Army Staff SGT and the mother of an Air Force Staff SGT. God Bless our Military men and women.
@@lilcheatah. And the mother cried the whole time without tears ...
I am a military wife and when a soldier dies the military is there whether you like it or not, they pay for the funeral and if you do have to pay out of pocket, they reimburse you. there is no reason he shouldn't have a headstone. that's an awful wife and a disgrace of a woman.
Yeah, how else do you explain Arlington and them what I think, are millions of fallen soldiers buried there, each with their own headstone and everything.
Dependapotamous
Lmao you beat me to it, she is the poster-child for a dependa lmao. She's that wife that calls in to his 1SG and complains when his unit isn't released by 1800 hahahaha she sure seems to know an awful lot about death benefits and money for someone who's never buried her husband.... she's just hoping
Brooke, you're the strongest person... Because without you, your husband probably would've gave up.
Some women don't understand that when they are married to someone in the military, they hold a specific responsibility that's greater than other wives.
Soldier would be turning in his grave. Sickening 😷
Imagine if they went to judge Judy..
albert7139 oh I would love to watch what happened I can imagine the gold digging whore walking out in atleast million dollars in debt
Too much cry.. would never work in judge Judy court...
I didn't like Judge Judy. She had a big mouth and didn't know when to shut up and was degrading like Joe Brown used to be sometimes. Unfairly.
albert7139 hahahaha if judge judy hand this case this wife will be roast like a pig😜
Judge Judy would have had a normal, rational woman in tears, but not this one. Something's definitely wrong with Caitlyn but it would take a mental health expert to determine what that is. I have my suspicions though.
GREEDY EVIL WIFE. KARMA TO THE WIFE. RIP YOUNG MAN AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE.
Shut up about karma. The wife comes first not the mother in law.
@Beautiful_1986 Take your own advice and shut the fuck up yourself. The mother was right and the wife was dead ass wrong, period, point blank, end of story.
Wrong... when there is a disagreement of remains the military does in fact take jurisdiction. However, the spouse does have the final decisions unless there is a POA beforehand.
Only when there is complete indecisiveness not this case because there was not even a conversation to begin with.
In this sort of circumstances the military should take over so their boy won't be sullied in his HONOUR
Yup.
It is big brain time
I was about to say, if there was a disagreement at the time, and I understand why there would be as the mother wanted her son close to home despite the son's wishes, I could see the military taking over the situation. Unlike JJ< Judge Pirro doesn't always get it right.
it's 6 years since this aired, I'd love an update on what the wife did next? I think it would really tell a lot.
mssmssmssmss
ty
Who would marry this heartless bitch?
the wife was a horrid evil woman, she purposely caused distress, she purposely prevented any contact with them, she even dangled the corpse of the family's son to their family in exchange for money.
bob See, that's an evil wish. Since we've all done things that we're not proud of, we have no right to harbor hatred toward anyone. I hope that Caitlin regrets her selfishness, and learns to show love toward others. If we follow this path God's blessing will be upon us. BTW, Caitlin's death survivor benefit was not ill-gotten gain. She was the young soldier's widow and deserved what she received. Maybe if Caitlin had truly surrendered herself to Christ, instead of merely going through the outward motions of a religious conversion, she would've handled this situation much differently.
Why should anyone take you seriously when you literally believe there's a magic sky daddy? Prove he's real THEN spout you're stupid bullshit, not before.
9:42 *he's not just a bunch of parts.... (heart broken).*
Forgotten Memory 💔😭
I could here my heart snap and then burn
The worst part...
I could feel my heart crack
Made me think of my late mother when I told her I was getting married a week before I signed my army contract and my now ex wife wasnt lucky enough to have me Parrish otherwise I feel like this is what she would have had to deal with...
The military always supplies a beautiful headstone for fallen soldiers. My dad served in WW2 and lived a great life after the war. The military supplied a fabulous headstone.
What kinda person would not spend anything of what she received on her late husband's tombstone?
exactly. !!@@arsenhere7020
The soldier obviously married this chick for the benefits. There was no love between the two
Nasty woman, the wife. Disgusting.
Great point.
Mother and judge are the nasty pos
Dude, the judge should not have asked when SHE KNEW the mother did not want to know. That was not okay. It was completely unprofessional. I can't believe she put her through that...
I totally agree
I completely agree when the judge asked the wife I was hoping she would say I'd rather not say as his mother does not want to know, but no she said it out loud knowing it would hurt his mother! Disgraceful! His wife knew him for 14 months his mother knew him for almost 21 years there is something wrong with this. That wife took the money and ran with it.
You're right. I think she made an honest mistake though. It was unprofessional like you said, but she did a great job. She's one of the best judges I've ever seen. She pinpointed all the facts and ruled justly. I can see why she was angry at the end when everything came together.
Sometimes, you really need to sniff through the evidence to reach a fair judgement, unfortunate that it was a very emotional trial but you have a job to do.
are you professional? or just another hipster
I'm am so sorry that his mother had to deal this absolutely disgusting behaviour from his wife. It's bad enough that she is grieving for her loss and then she had to deal with this. I'm so sorry
it more disgusting that the wife barely even looked sad talking about the death
Mykki Brown It's 2 years later from the death to the taping.
Mentholian Smoke still have some remorse
Mykki Brown Who are we to say she doesn't cry about it or think about it?
Mentholian Smoke she didn't even flinch at the mentioning of her husband's legs not being on him.
As a soldier.. I have SEEN these fights between daughters and mothers. It’s so sad. But the army has paperwork for next of kin and who’s notified and who has control of the body.
....the mother should be compensated for wayyy more than just $5000. The wife should pay for the flights to Cali, the burial move to Nebraska, the 15000 fee she made her pay, those bills, and the headstone. smh Dependas make me sick
👐👏👐👏
I learned in History class that this country was built by black people but I think that if white people built this country this kind of thing wouldn't happen.
+Sém ....annnddd what exactly is are you saying?
I'm not exactly sure how it pertains to the video dude, but ok? Sure?
just makes no damn sense dude. I'll just assume you're a troll and I shouldn't take you seriously, nor should anyone else.
The judge should have never said anything about the extra body parts, the mother was devastated
I would never want that made public let alone on tv. Regardless of the situation, u just put that images out for the family to feel the pain all over again. Thats a shame
I was shocked that she asked...especially after his mother answered "I didn't ask", when the judge presented the question to her...as a mother myself, I was floored...this whole episode is a travesty.
@@theamericanpatriot2015 Let me spell it out for you. She got almost a half a million dollars and couldn't even put up a headstone for her husband who gave his life for this country. That's pretty trashy if you ask me.
@@southerngirl6398 this is irrelevant to the point of the judge asking about what parts were found. That shouldn't have been asked PERIOD. It didn't matter and after the mother said she didn't ask... It should've been left alone.
I like this judge but, I agree 100%. There was no point in asking what parts were found, especially if the mother didn’t want to know anything about it. Pretty shitty! The wife shouldn’t have said either.
When this judge says "shame on you", you really feel it 😭
This judge is clueless and needs a few lessons in military education.
@@eileenmcdonald1599 how so? I’m not in the military so I have no idea.
Shame on that judge, too. She asked the widow what body parts were found AFTER the mom said she didn't want to know that information. Maybe that's why she's a TV judge. Ratings mean more than feelings.
@@taestyinbusan3163 I was going to comment the same thing! Shame on the judge! Why does it even matter what remains were found? She was just being nosey
This case was also on judge judy
Thank You For Your Service, 👨🏼✈️ Brandon.
My Sincerest Heartfelt Condolences to the Parents. 🙏🏼😘

ray allen Who refused the parents! Greed trying to make the parents pay did you not watch? Sorry yes his wife but the parents are his blood
kafuka megumi very well said :)
Her former daughter in law is a gold digger - period.
how can she do such a thing for the man she claimed she loved??? how heartless and lack of human soul can you be to do such a thing?
I am TOTALY SHOCKED !!! She just got 450,000$$$$ and she wouldn't put a head stone on his grave? i am sure the mother is telling the truth and that blond bimbo is a monster
i am speechless!!! GOLD DIGGER !!! how can she behave like that?
17 Months - and still no headstone - case in point
+SimsMoyal What's really messed up is the life insurace is 400,000 and the funeral is 50,000.they are 2 separate payments. I'm in the Army and have had this whole talk with my husband which is not an easy one. I wrote my own will at 18 years old...... this woman is a monster.... even though my husband is my beneficiary I still expect my parents to have most of the say about my funeral. holy cow dependapotomus.
+Natalie Vlogs i agree my brother served and deployed and after watching this i thought to myself typical dependa. Sad thing is i could see my brothers exwife doing something like this to my family.
I don't write comments on videos, but I'll make an exception in this case to say I agree with you. The daughter-in-law wanted to keep the $400K for herself. The fact that she uses the phrase "I had to pay out of my pocket" pissed me off. She wanted the money and no responsibility. She is an awful person and she is what is wrong with military spouses
Mom didn't want to know about the remaining parts, wife had no problem naming the parts... says it all
Good point!
People have been blaming on the judge such question, but it was a emotional TEST Screening ...
People take horrible news differently, the wife looked at the horrible information, his mother did not. Don't make such ludicrous and offensive implications that the wife didn't love her dead husband with crude evidence like that.
Says absolutely nothing at all. What's even your point? The wife didn't love her husband because she was able to name the remaining body parts?
:-(
The wife said what parts were found because she was asked by the Judge. It's not like she just blurted it out of nowhere.
As a mother of two sons my heart breaks for this mom, I'm in tears.
mom was faking dramatizing it up and suckered the judge and other right in. I saw thru her tho
@@lyricberlin
Seems to me you did not see very much.
The young woman’s story was all over the place and the fact she did not have a headstone put on her husband’s grave says everything about her character.
@@bobp1016 do you know how fucking experience that is and his judge needs to get removed because the mom is a lying because you can see it on her face
@@lyricberlin. The mother cried the whole time without tears ....
I am an Army Combat Veteran, how utterly disgusting the spouse is ! He should have never married that PIG, thank God there were no children to see how little she cared about her Husband who made the ultimate sacrifice one can do for another. His life.
Women don't care about men, The only reason women feel sadness in this scenario is because they lost a provider.
+TYRES1987 So using you logic, the mom did not care about her son?
+TYRES1987 I love my husband. Emotions belong to humans of all sexes. And what about men who go onto social media to "date" lonely women for tons of money?? By your logic, every man would be scum.
kittypop1986 1 With the exception to blood relatives obviously.
Sam Of Sam Nation Women By nature are attracted to providers for their offspring. men can also be like this but it's not as common and in no way in our nature to want a provider female other than providing genetically. You only think you love your husband, i garuntee that if your husband lost his job and you had to provide for him and your children that "love" you felt would quickly turn into resentment.
This was very hard to watch. I'm a vet who took place in the initial invasion and was in Iraq for a year. I was disabled from an IED that also caused a fellow soldier to lose his leg.
Many soldiers get married before they go to war because not only do they get paid more, but the wife will receive benefits. While she may have just been avoiding things because she didn't want to reminded of the event, it appears more likely that she did not have the love for him that he deserved, especially posthumously.
Regardless of either lack of love or strength, she was most certainly in the wrong. We have to do things we don't want to do in times of adversity. This soldier deserved better.
I hope you don't mind me asking What's IED?
Improvised explosive device. In layman's terms; a bomb.
D X Are those the type of bombs which are home-made?
Pretty much. A lot are artillery shells rigged for remote/wired detonation. Just google IED, its on wiki if you want to learn more.
This actually made me cry.
Why Judge would you ask the widow in front of the deceased soldiers mother what other body parts were found? Extremely insensitive!
That was horrible
Agreed. I can't believe there's not more outrage over that comment... I almost started crying, you could almost feel that mother's pain.
Evelyn Stevenson the mother CLEARLY did NOT WANT TO KNOW, it's utterly despicable of BOTH the Judge and the wife!!! I'm just dumbfounded!!!
Because it validated what a terrible human being the wife was.
I think she was testing the wife to see what she'd do. Maybe if the wife cared about her in-laws' sensitivity, she could've told the judge, "I'd rather not say aloud in front of them." Then she could write it down and give it to the judge. But she just answered like she didn't care about their feelings.
RIP soldier. This is heartbreaking on all sides. I am shook that a judge raises her voice in an accusatory manner to both sides when she should remain calm and ask the right questions instead of jumping all over the place. Unimpressed.
As harsh as situations like this are, it's informative television.. you learn something. If you're a soldier you might want to make sure your burial arrangements are written in stone & provided to you wife for certain. Everyone deserves to be buried where they want to, especially those who make the greatest sacrifice.
before I deployed the 1st time I went to a lawyer and set everything I wanted in writing along with my will. luckily I didn't have to use it but I had friends who didn't and the whores they married before leaving did everything that blond piece of garbage did and worse. I did everything I could to help the families but it is what it is.
+Big Boss Thank you, sweetheart, for protecting us, for everything you and your fellow service men and women have done and continue to do. We Americans live our little lives going on about each day, going to Starbucks, taking our dogs to the park, paying our bills, watching crap reality TV, going out to dinner and our biggest "problem" being choosing which restaurant, while over there, you all were just trying to survive and keep each other alive. I can't even begin to show you how grateful we are. "Thank you" isn't and never will be enough.
+Big Boss Thank you.
+Big Boss thank you for serving for us. You are a unselfish human being with integrity
They do! I’m currently in service and we always ask the soldiers if they want a power of attorney, a will.. who do you want to have identify your body etc. this case is bull
as someone who deals w/ Military furnerals. the military HANDLES all notifications that the service member OR serving spouse wants them to handle. Judge needs to get educated
Amen, the military will handle as much as the widow wants them to or all
The judge said it right. The widow was trying to say that the military took over and said they would handle notifications, but the judge said the military doesn't automatically do that. The spouse has to ask for them to do that. The judge had it right.
You didn’t even listen to what the judge actually said. She didn’t say that the military don’t handle anything like that, she said they don’t automatically do that.
Hannah Young exactly
Military should reverse the payments from such these people
My heart just breaks for this dear mother. My son served in Iraq and made it back home in one piece, not whole, but bodily in one piece. I pray this mother and father have the peace that only God can give. I am so sorry for what she went through and still going through. 😪
She was grieving so much that she wanted this case aired on TV. The parents seem like attention whores
Mom and dad deserve 20K . That is heartbreaking. I could not imagine treating my in laws that way. she made out with a lot of $$$.
She the wife

My Deepest Respect Soldier. My Condolences for the actions of your family.
Upon request, the VA will provide a headstone or marker for any deceased vet for free.
Again that proves this wife if you could even call her that, is a pos! As a female vet who sees men treated like this by their wives makes my blood boil
The wife gets over $400,000 and she NEVER BOTHERS to put a headstone on her husbands grave?!?! SEVENTEEN MONTHS? 1) Seventeen Months 2) The U.S. Army could not contact her (FOR SIX MONTHS) about the other remains of her husband that were found... Yet when it comes to getting the $400,000 she's available. 3) The Mother visits the grave site EIGHT TIMES but the wife NEVER visits the grave site (except for the funeral)........ and finally 4) The wife SELLS...she freaking SELLS her husband's GRAVESITE? What? is she going into business?........ There is no greater pain than the loss of a child...No parent wants to outlive their children...This young woman was torturing the parents and using her husband's grave and his remains just to cause his parents pain...That is just WRONG...
Yeah, she is a piece of work. What kind of person sells a grave to the parents? WTF?
Excellent question...
Majid Al Aventador
Business and torturing her in-laws...
costa200
when the parents are bugging you to hand over the rights to the grave. Admitted in here, they WANTED the rights to the grave, before they wanted the rights on where he was buried.
The wife was way to young and inexperienced to be handling something like this.
Some young people are aware of what they are doing.
She was his wife. His wife is his next of kin. His wife has the last and final say so as to where his remains would be buried.
I'm questioning why the mother was the one who was first notified before the wife? Sounds like Brandon hadn't updated the Army as to his POA if something happened to him.
None of this makes sense.

She's just evil
May be but she should have been given a chance to bury her husband without all the mother in-law drama. I think she fell apart as mother in-law got stupid and wanting her own way. Father in-law don't like Jews and said so. Horrible people. Yup I'd get as far from them as I possibly could.
I wouldn’t talk to the MIL either if she wouldn’t respect what the husband wanted. Ugh this whole thing just pissed me off. The judge was on the MIL side from jump
What proof did she have no last will and testimony no your a ducking idiot just like the wife
Thank you for clarifying.
Holy shit. Maybe the parents had always been disliked the girl when she was marrying their child. And the wife hated it. But, their ego shouldve been put aside for the proper burial for the husband. Indeed she should be ashamed :(
I wonder what Brandon ever saw in that woman. She was probably thrilled when he was killed in Iraq, not sad.
You said it. I think that the wife should've just put any problems aside and tried to deal with the in-laws on their joint loss. But some people let these things get in the way of what's right. It's like in Fences where Cory doesn't want to go to his dad's funeral because of the disagreements they had years ago.
sha - I believe she played to Brandon's sympathies. She was a damsel in distress and Brandon came to the rescue. It makes perfect sense given that Brandon was a soldier and she shows sociopathic tendencies.
No, I've read about this couple. They did care for each other. It was that she didn't get along with the in-laws and couldn't put aside differences once Brandon died. I don't think she was happy he was killed and did love him and didn't marry him for money. If he was still alive, they would still be married and maybe have kids.
This is so very heartbreaking. Growing up in a Military family, I can't even finish watching.... RIP Brandon.❣️ Thank you for serving our country.
This is a freaking disgrace!!! Thank You for your service Spc. Brandon Myers.
The pain is unbearable 💔 oh my if only people would let go of their personal feelings of hatred, anger, jealousy and gossip.. How much more would be accomplished through love and kindness, sympathy and compassion.

So disrespectful.
The only issue I had was how the judge kept saying the wife "made" 400K from her husband's death as if it was some business venture.
It's true in this case unfortunately. That woman is a disgusting human being for how little care she had for her husband after his death and not taking care of the grave site. That's not how someone who served the country should be treated. My heart breaks for the mother. The judge was right when she told the widow she should be ashamed.
@ileanna Exactly. there is so much more to this story. If we dug deeper we would more than likely find that the in-laws are something else. only a little bit was let out there is definitely much much more.
@@lilcheatah no matter what the parents side did. Not putting a gravestone on his grave is just wild to me. 17 months because she was looking for a verse. I think after like 2 months, any person would give up on finding it and put one regardless. And if you do find it in the future, you can always update it. So I could get if she was spiteful to the family but to do her husband wrong like that is just insane to me. And she said she didn’t give her updated address, why wouldn’t you? What if something came up. So for 6 months they were trying to reach her about his remains. Idk man she sounds like a sociopath. She probably planted the IUD that’s how psycho and evil this woman is.
probably because the wife didn't spend any of it on the husband's grave. She treated his death like a cash cow.Fucking idiot.
The Wife only wanted the money sad.Mom is still grieving I hope she finds a 🕊️ piece of peace. Lord please cradle her broken 💔 heart
Mother: Cries when she talks about her son
Widow: Barely anything at all
I think that says it all
Yup!!!
a3grimreaper I don't cry in public no matter what i'm talking about, I usually go cold and put a wall up. But I'm pretty sure you're right. She has no care for her husband. Think she was just in it for the money
Razor Smith There is no medication for being greedy! She had red eyes, she managed to have that but ... BUT her demeanor when speaking of the man she supposedly loved gave her away !!

As a mother of a son that is enlisted in the army, my heart breaks for that mother.
Poor wife f the mom
There are no winners in this case
So you would be nasty about his wife.
As a mother, period, I can't imagine going through this. Karma is a mf'er! Wife is profiting of her husband's death! 17 months and no headstone? She thought family wouldn't go to graveside in cali so many times! Never underestimate a mother's love!
The mom is whiney.
The so called judge is a disgrace. The mother said she didn't ask for specifics of the additional parts, but the judge kept pushing for the information. How cruel. And when you ask a question allow the person to finish.
I can't stand the judge. The inlaws were crap.
Agreed. I find her a bitch. And this family is just hateful.there is no rule as to when a friggen headstone has to put a grave.
The young widow trusted the military and funeral home to do the right thing, she was in over her head to arrange burial so young and with the loss of her husband. I think the in laws are reacting to their loss by attacking her. I hope the widow never has to deal with that family again after this.
I agree, She didn't let the widow answer any questions, she just kept cutting her off. She didn't walk in the courtroom with an opinion that was down the middle. She came guns blazing for that young widow. She may have not made the right choices but she was very young. Sad situation all around.
Probably because the judge already saw through her bullshit story where she tried to blame the military and the coroners.
the gold digger widow is a monster.
agreed straight golddigger... took the money and got ghost
Sociopaths usually are. She shows enough of the characteristics.
I feel sorry for his mother but the spousal rights are greater than parent rights since the man is an adult and married.
Makes a person wonder if this was a marriage of convenience on her part, money wise because listening to this makes me wonder did she really loved her husband and thankful that no kids was involved. Maybe the wife thought that his parents were going to ask for some of the money even though they weren't entitled to any of it. He's dead now, so move on with y'all lives and let God handle it through prayer and supplication.
To make your mother in law bought the grave site of her son after you as spouse inheritated all that sum of money. You're the wife you certainly can do as you please but do not take one verse in the bible the one that works for you and forget the foundation of the word of God "love" what is the meaning of love.
There certainly looks like there's more background to this story. Shes married to him for a short period of time, he gets killed, she the wife didnt show alot of emotion. As far as the father, he probably said that to her, that is a Christian belief that Jews dont recognize Jesus as our Savior, for that very reason Christians believe Jews will go to hell. There's no hate crime just a religious belief. As the trial was progressing I sided with the parents from Nebraska.
Which can be sad according to who you're married to.
sleepingwiththedog if you look more into it, the wife wasn’t as bad as she looked... the parents did fucked up stuff to her too. Pirro took it personally and didn’t even attempt to find the truth.
wife wife wife!!!! what a mess................so sorry MoM your son married her!
This “judge” behaves unprofessionally. It is irritating how she constantly interrupts the widow and incorrectly and aggressively re-states bits of what is said. This wasn’t arbitration it was bullying for tv. Shame on that judge.

Not only did this girl the money and run, but she did so in a heartless selfish arrogant and immature manner. To allow this young man’s grave to go unmarked shows just how much she truly cared for him. I would bet she never visits the grave and the family that loved him have to get on an airplane to visit his grave. How very sad that this young soldier married a woman that would hurt his mother so very much. shame shame shame on her.
Mary T I agree with everything you said Mary , She is a disgusting person inside and out
The only thing for sure here is that the girl definatley did not love her husband otherwise there is no way she could have treated his parents this way. She probably just enjoyed the accolades of being an army wife.
I think that Piss Poor Example of a Wife/Human being should have at least allowed His parents to exhume His Body and Allow them to bury this Hero to be Buried Whole as he and everyone else is suppose to be given the right to Also I saw Not one bit of emotion when ask about the remains that had been found whereas the Mother looked to be a Total Break down And little bitch knew what it would do to her She isn't planning on Visiting his Grave Let him go home where his Mother and Father will Visit him all the time I'm not a violent person but I would have thrown the gavel at her What a Disgusting Creature Karma is coming for you one day To the Young Soldier and his Family God Bless 😢 and RIP
The wife is the ONLY ONE who is in charge of the grave. Not the man's mother.
Of course unless the despicable greedy wife sells it...
You haven't dealt with in-laws and military people before ... I'm pretty sure the daughter in law had very good reason to cut her in law off ... something more to this then they showed ...
Sagittarius hernandez fool, their son died, she got 400k yet she’s selling her husband grave to his parent. Which means she doesn’t care where they lay him inasmuch as she can change her phone number and continue to live her life.
@@odekalebamidele4668 but you got to ask yourself ... why she change her number n finally sold his grave... you all saying his wife is money hungry but why aren't anyone looking at the parents ... money makes stupid people.... including "loving" mom's ... like I said I think there's something more to this story jmo
This was clearly a dependa though. She would’ve drained his deployment money and fucked a bunch of dudes had he lived to see it - and then rode around with those bumper stickers “Army Wife - hardest job in the military” and “His Boots, Her Flipflops” on a nasty cutoff tank top, jiggling around Walmart or the commissary, on the prowl for more young privates.
My heart breaks for that mother, I have 4 sons and can't imagine. God bless their family, I pray she finds some kind of peace.
The wife obviously only cared about the money!!!
No that mother in law couldn't handle having no control over anything. Wife can choose if she wants head stone or not.
Papa Smurf Shut the fuck up
I really feel like it's way more to this story...
J'Niya Bradshaw i agree. And I can say I’m fairly certain his Dad made disparaging remarks about her religion bc that’s how some of those preachers roll. They probably disliked Her from the beginning. And in that case, it’s not going to end well if something happens to the sun. Maybe this is a good lesson for other people to learn try to let things go. Especially if your sons intend it is not the same religion as you does it really matter?
PARENTS DID NOT LIKE SON MARRYING SOMEONE OF DIFFERENT FAITH AND WERE AGAINST THIS MARRIAG. THIS GIRL WAS RIGHT, SHE HAD RIGHT TO BUY HUSBAND WHERE H WANTED TO BE BURIED. PARENTS NOT TELLING WHOLE TRUTH.
It maybe, but that doesn't give an excuse for the widow to be willing to transfer ownership of her husband's grave site to his parents for 15k! I mean ok, parents don't always agree with their kid's partner, they can hate each other's guts while the couple strive forward in life! But in this case the husband/son was dead, they had some misunderstandings, ok! But the questions start to rise against the wife when/why she agrees to transfer the ownership of the grave site by selling it!?? Why? That was her mistake! If she somehow agreed to do the transfer, she should've done it free of charge! She already got 400k from the military, why she needed to charge the parents another 15k?
Night Shift Fagin is a distant relative of hers.
True. This is jungle justice. Everytime the widow tries to explain herself, the Judge shuts her up. I'm glad our country follows fair procedure where the Judge is to stay impartial, not to interfere in the proceedings just merely listening to all parties and then to make an informed decision.
Whyyyyyy did she need to know what remains were found? God that hurt just watching the mothers reaction. I can only imagine how that feels.
Stop acting like you aren't a human being. We naturally are curious of things. Perhaps she had no idea the mothet was so fragile about it. And from the look on her face it seems like she regretted asking the question. Everyone is nosey but some can control it. Some can't.
@@Rhythm1293 there's curiosity then there's common courtesy. You don't discuss things of that nature, especially in front of the deceased person's parents.
@@ImmortalAbsenon judge was in her right to ask. She may not have understood why the military didn't wait until they had entire body. She may have wanted to know in order to understand why the grave needed to be reopened. Or, to see what kind of person each of them were. The widowed wife could have much more tact. As a military veteran, I assumed it was his legs; however, there were many way she could have told the judge without being so blunt and uncaring of her in-laws.

Wow. God bless the family, my heart goes out to the parents. That so called wife should be ashamed of herself.
Funny how she disappeared after receiving the money, not before. 🤔
Yup the judge knew what she was doing to not be in contact when you have missing returned remains so 3 to 6 months or more it just blows my mind that tells me he wasn't worth much.
The Honorable soldier's wife is a gold digger, sociopath. Man!
@@aniruddh_d16 His mother and creepy husband ain't much better. I'd disappear as well if I had to deal with that twisted ass couple. They screwed this up only because they wanted their son in Nebraska. When they didn't get their own way mommy became an asshole.
TheSeanocasey
I feel like they are one of these crazy Christians and always had a problem with the widow’s family.
I can understand why she left.
What I can’t understand is why didn’t she notified. If it was all about money, it would have been easier and less obvious for her to keep contact with the soldier’s family. To move out a year, or 2 after the death and slowly cutting calls, while building her new life.
I think she was depressed. Like highly depressed. And felt alone.
And even though the mother might have been harsh with her, that’s no way to treat a person whose son just died months ago.

One the judge needs to be removed two the mother and the father need to be put in their place they had no say in anything that happens to their son because they aren't married to him
Absolutely Disgusted with that WIFE! She didn't care about her husband or how her husband's family suffered. She's a CERTIFIABLE F'ING B.
She was thrilled her hubby was killed and got all that money to blow on hats.
Susan H. it shouldn't make sense that the spouse he's been with a little over a year, would have more say than the parents who raised him. this world doesn't make sense anyways.
After reading about how they met, she did love him, but didn't get along with the in-laws and couldn't put aside differences.
A spouse has those rights from the day they're married, but a good wife and daughter-in-law would have recognized that she would not be the only one to feel the loss. It never occurred to her that the right thing to do would be to work with her in-laws. She just couldn't accept that this isn't all about her.
That's exactly right. She should've put any petty differences aside and tried to work with the in-laws. I guess she had never gotten along with them and Brandon was a buffer between them. When he died, it all fell apart.
The Judge wouldn't let the wife answer most of her questions. The mother & father-in-law are racists and I'm sure they made this young woman's life hell. The judge made it worse. Pirro is terrible.
This was really hard to watch, I started to cry. My dad and mom are both veterans. My sister is a combat medic, my older brother just started serving. So to see a man who died protecting this country mistreated like this, it just makes me mad.
I love my man to death but if his mother says she wants him buried in a different place then I do then that's what's happening, whether she likes or loves me as her own, that's still her son. You have to give her that respect. Its like she didn't even love "husband"
Zoey Rampage Agreed... Id listen to his mum and show her respect in this time :(
That's her baby boy... Its a deeper bond than even our love :)
Zoey Rampage. 👏🙌 Zoey u are an amazing person as a mother of 3 I wish my children have the luck to find someone as kind a good hearted as you..
Belinda Rodriguez awe thank you
Zoey Rampage what you need to understand is that the Army get to decide what happens after the death. Lemme let you know what it is like in the Army. We have a form called a DD93. This is called the Record of Emergency Data. This list all beneficiaries for death benefits. It also contains a section for DOR, which stand for Deposition of Remains. This section is filled out by the soldier and it decides who has control over the body after it is processed by Dover AFB. There is also a form called the SGLV that list life insurance beneficiaries. I can guarantee the mother was not listed on any of these forms or she would of had control of everything. Every part of these forms are dictated by what the SOLDIER wants only. The wife should of had complete and legal control of the After death process. The mother had no right to ask for the remains to be removed. This judge over stepped her bounds and if I was the wife I would go the the state AG or Washington Military District IG.
Some people have no idea how long it takes to get a marker from the VA.
Both my parents were Marines. When my mom died, I just went ahead and paid for a bronze marker from a great company in Utah that looked just like my dad's bronze VA marker. (They used to make them for the VA as well.) It arrived in a couple of weeks. My dad's took months.
The wife didn't even bother to order one. She could have ordered it & had the bible verse engraved on it at a later date.
I’m sorry for your loss. My uncle was in Air force and it took him 3 months.
Took 7 months at Arlington National for us!
@Jane Howard...If you are buried on a Military Installation, as was my husband, my brother, mother, sister and father, the headstone is done within SEVEN days. If you are buried in a civilian cemetery, it can take up to several months. In a military cemetery, ALL headstones, are the EXACT same size, REGARDLESS if you are a General or a Private. In a Military Cemetery, Rank does NOT have any privileges. Just in case you're not familiar with that old military adage "Rank has it's privileges".
She got $400,000. She could pay for one
God bless all the fallen soldiers. Thank you for your service ❤ Never forgotten
should split the money to the parents. She only knew him for 2 years and got 400k . WTF
He chose to giver her that much, the service member decides who gets the money and how much. Right before we left to Afghanistan we did audits one final time, I made sure my benefits for death would be paid to my sister. Once you sign it is final and no one else can change it besides you.
if you payed attention she stated that the money was already split between them. it may be hard to hear over the judge constantly interrupting the defendant and talking over her. my issue with these shows is the judge always talks over the person they brand guilty so they never get to speak their case fully.
You Know Me As i want to see that part, can you show me when ?
She can't give more than 5k in a case. But i agree this bitch wasa gold diger when she got the money I think that 400k is too much when there are people who come back from war and get very little to live on
***** "Not the whole thing, they got part of it too." oh I wonder what that part is now ^^
How the hell does this get into a courtroom? If the spouse (who 99% of the time is the next of kin for a married soldier) decides to bury the soldier in another state the family could buy a plot in Nebraska and a headstone and have their own service. This whole thing was completely unnecessary.
Exactly! Best comment
They could possibly bury his additional remains there in Nebraska...
Good idea. I wanted to say ,I feel so bad for Mom, but he has a wife now! I couldn't find a way to say that nicely. You did😀
Best comment ever.
This started when the father disparaged the wife's father. This is deeper than we even know with both sides of the family.
Judge Pirro is a wonderful Judge. She saw straight through that woman who wouldn't even put a headstone on her own husband's grave and left it unmarked for 17 months after he served this country and died ultimately died for it. And she wouldn't even bury him properly with dignity and respect.. Wouldn't put a dime on this man's headstone and SOLD the plot to the parents after receiving over $400 GRAND as her husband's beneficiary. She's a self-centered, gold digging GREEDY cold-hearted pig!! Judge let her have it and I was CHEERING!! GO Judge Pirro!!
The fact she SOLD the plot is what bothers me, I just can't imagine saying here is my husband's grave...like it or buy it. For me it would be, I know their is no head stone but I am saving up for it ...if all goes well the military will grant me his death benefits.
Instead she the widow says I refuse to talk to his family. Let it be between the military and me. It just says I never really knew him, but screwed him and married him and wanted his/my children by him. Okay..she never loved him, but got a huge monetary reward...his choice. So we do have to respect his wishes in the end.
***** Well said! I I couldn't have said it better...
SkyeBlues I agree she is a self centered PIG,disgusting inside and out
Well to be honest, it is the Jewish side of her right there..
SkyeBlues well it really does take around a year to get a headstone on a grave
The widow enjoyed the benefit of about $400k for her husband's death, but the In-Laws were responsible for the funeral/burial costs. SMH.

Young, immature, no respect for the woman that gave birth and raised this soldier and molded him into that man he became.

Someday, let's hope after she has a child she will learn how trivial this was, and how deeply she hurt these parents. I pray, she can make peace with these parents someday.
There both hurting

Obviouly she's hurt, but you're right, there's no tears, at all !
She's hurt that she's in court and didn't get ALL the money...
Are you blind? Of course she did. By your logic, the mother didn't either.

RE HEADSTONE: My father, who served in WWII and Korea, passed away in 1999. I handled his affairs after his death. He was entitled to a military headstone, which I ordered from the VA. After many calls, it finally came 9 months later. Unfortunately, my father's middle name (which is unusual) was misspelled. My mother requested that the VA fix it. So I sent it back. We finally got the headstone on my father's grave about 1.5 years after death.RE GRAVESITE: Prior to any family deaths, my mother had purchased 4 grave "spaces". Three of them were allocated to my brother, father and mother. In checking with my other siblings, they had already made other arrangements, or didn't want to be buried there. So with power of attorney I sold the remaining plot.
Thanking your FATHER for his service!!
Thank you for the insight.
However it wz an empty plot that you sold. This wife sold the plot where her husband wz already buried to his own Mum for his sister to be buried? Heartless??
I have 2 sons who are both actively serving. Both are married. BOTH had to make wills before being deployed. BOTH had to assign someone to take care of their funerals.
Being Jewish, we don't place a headstone until a year after the funeral.
There doesn't seem to be any winners in this case.
The Judge was rude and extremely rude to to the Widow. She clearly lack knowage in how the military deals with funerals and burials.
except he is not Jewish and never converted to Judaism so this would have no relevance
That is the same in New Zealand Maori customs aswell a year after for the headstone to go down really for the ground to harden up after its settled down. I don't think the judge was rude, she was angry at the wife for taking his payout saying openly that she paid for his funeral when infact that was covered by her husband's payout not her personally. Then had the audacity to ask her husband's mother to pay for his plot is even more pathetic especially when shes still left him in an unmarked burial plot because she can't get her shit together
I am not American but it certainly was a Shylock move trying to sell that grave site. I guess there is more to the stereotype after all.
As hard as it is to hear for the parents, the wife is the person who has rights to remains. Unfortunately the military deals with this regularly, they handle this stuff because they know the pain that goes with burying a son or daughter.
This is so sad, how horrible to fight when the young man lost his life 😢
thank you men for your service.. may god bring peace to his family
I do care. I lost my son when he and 19 of his Marine brothers were killed in a plane crash during a training event. Our hearts are with the families of these men.
I'm so sorry. 💔
So so sorry for this loss. 💔
I am so sorry for your loss of your boy. May our Lord Jesus give you comfort.
Where she was, how they found out how he died, his age all these things have nothing to do with the case. Once you’re married that person is your immediate family and rest of your family is extended. Your spouse should have full authority & say about a burial.
Dal V but I believe in this particular circumstance the spouse should have let the family bury him in Nebraska. The daughter in law and son of the plaintiffs did not have children and were only married a short time. She would have gone on with her life and remarried and most likely had her own family. The son should've been buried where his parents and relatives could visit his grave. It is obvious that the spouse did not care by how she neglected to maintain the gravesite, not even putting a headstone on it, therefore just wanted him buried in California out of spite. In the long run, she would probably not care anymore and not visit his grave at all. She would just go about living her life using his death benefits, while his parents would not get to visit his gravesite since it is so far away.
@@m4riee162 you're an asshat. The military can take over a year to place a headstone. Shut the fuck up
Fcc b uuu
So people who brought him to this world is extended family after marriage. R you insane!!
@@m4riee162 exactly and she got over 400k dollar. I bet she is just trying to troll her husband mom.
Unbelievable! This man gave his ALL and didn’t deserve such disrespect.
