Body Count Rises to 383 Inside Idle Juarez Crematorium
CIUDAD JUÁREZ, CHIHUAHUA, MEXICO, JUN 29 – Two crematorium operators face charges after 383 embalmed bodies were found uncremated and stacked, with some remains stored for up to four years amid Mexico's forensic crisis.
- Police arrested two people after discovering 383 embalmed corpses piled irregularly at a private crematorium in Ciudad Juarez on June 30, 2025.
- An anonymous tip and ongoing forensic system saturation in Mexico led to the discovery, as authorities investigate why so many bodies remained uncremated.
- Communications coordinator Eloy Garcia said the corpses were stacked indiscriminately in several rooms, while relatives received other material instead of ashes.
- Garcia criticized the crematorium owners for their negligence, emphasizing that such facilities must operate within their daily handling limits, and committed to pursuing the severest penalties for those at fault.
- State Attorney General Csar Juregui said the bodies had been dead for at least three or four years, and a thorough investigation aims to minimize families' re-victimization.
