Body mix-up at Florida funeral home

Family members of Norma Newman are demanding answers after they say a Fort Lauderdale funeral home displayed the wrong body at Newman's wake Saturday night, according to local media.

"And I went up to view her body and I said, 'No, this is not my sister. This is somebody we did not know,'" Newman's sister Cuinthia Webber said. "We did not know the person that was lying in the casket."

Family members said they asked staff at Roy Mizell & Kurtz Funeral Home about it and they had no answers for the family.
