The site said that someone took a photo of her inside the casket during the private viewing the day before her funeral, despite the precautionary measures made by the Houston and Brown families.

The body of Bobbi Kristina Brown was taken to Fairview Cemetery in Westfield, New Jersey on Monday afternoon, the Associated Press reported.
For Monday’s services, a procession from the Whigham Funeral Home in Newark, the same facility that handled Whitney’s funeral, started forming around the cemetery sometime around 1 p.m. Police have closed down roads and set up barricades.
Bobbi Kristina’s funeral in Alpharetta, Ga., was briefly disrupted when her aunt, Leolah Brown, sister of her father Bobby Brown, erupted angrily during a eulogy by her maternal aunt, Pat Houston, and had to be escorted out by security. Dozens of onlookers gathered on Saturday near a Georgia church for the funeral of Brown, 22, who died this week, months after she was found unresponsive in a bathtub.
Relations between Gordon and other relatives have soured over the past few years, especially after Bobbi Kristina was hospitalized.
Leolah has been at war with Pat Houston ever since Bobbi Kristina was hospitalized in January 2015. In early July reports surfaced that a family member was trying to sell a picture of Bobbi Kristina on her deathbed. Doctors say she suffered “irreversible brain damage”.
Ongoing tensions between the Brown and Houston families continued to run high.
The conditions were eerily similar to her mother, Whitney Houston, whose lifeless body was also found face down in a foot of water in her bathtub at the Beverly Hills Hilton, just before the Grammy Awards in 2012. She was raging because of some words that were said during the funeral by Pat Houston, the sister-in-law and former manager of Whitney Houston.
Someone snapped a similarly tasteless picture at Whitney Houston’s funeral in 2012, leading to accusations from both families. She died a week ago Sunday at the Peachtree Christian Hospice outside of Atlanta.
