“The funeral home led them to believe their mother’s body was still in the building in Queens, and they were making excuses as to why there was a delay in transporting her to Ecuador. Even though the TikTok indicated the woman in Guatemala was Carmen Maldonado, it was hard to believe because they were given different information from the funeral home,” Rizzuto claimed, including, “The funeral home originally told the daughter Rosa that, no, we have your mother here. And they denied it. But then when they showed up the next day, and they showed them the video, the funeral home admitted that they made a mistake.”
Maldonado’s kid needed to fly to Guatemala to bring her back to Ecuador where she had actually intended to remain in the top place.

“A mistake is one thing, but to then try to cover it up is is, you know, a whole other level of misconduct,” Rizzuto claimed, “And the reality is, if the family didn’t find out, the funeral home never would have told them.”
