In 2012 same morgue buried a different person and lied it was a family’s grand mother.

The Inglewood's Simpson Family Mortuary in Los Angeles is in trouble with the law after burying a military veteran without notifying the family so they could attend the ceremony.

The Edward Pitts' family has filed a civil lawsuit against the morgue alleging that they paid them to work with the Veteran's Affairs Department to bury Pitts with full military honors and that the funeral director agreed to contact the family once a burial date had been set.

The daughter to the diseased, Jamilah Pitts claims despite repeated phone calls to the mortuary to confirm the date, workers there went ahead with the burial without them all. She's also claiming that it's still unclear if the person they buried was actually her father.

It's not the first time that same mortuary is doing same act. In 2012, Simpson's Family Mortuary of Inglewood made news when the family of a Darlene Davidson told the morticians that the morgue had buried a different woman instead of their grandmother.

Simpson's argued that it was her and that she looked different because she had been embalmed and she was sick but finally acknowledged that the woman it buried was not the 82-year-old Darlene Davidson.

Guys what should be done with this Mortuary?
