A Houston funeral home director appeared in court on Friday on multiple felony charges involving a scheme to steal more than $2.2 million from a deceased man’s estate.
Unique Mica Green-Battle is accused of forging documents to claim he is the spouse and successor of the victim, Lawrence Gammon. The forged documents include a fake will, a falsified death certificate, forged probate documents, and fraudulent filings used to gain control of the estate, according to Fox 26.
Police executed a search warrant of Green-Battle’s business in November 2025 after families accused the funeral home of mishandling corpses and committing fraud.
During a search of the business, investigators reportedly found human organs in a bucket and boxes of cremated remains.
Green-Battle was also operating the business without a license after the license expired in 2021 and was revoked in August 2025.
The apparently trans funeral director appeared in court on Friday, where a judge set bond at $800,000. Green-Battle was released after posting the bond.
“Court documents dating back to 1998 list Green-Battle at different times as male and female. The Chronicle could not confirm Green-Battle’s gender identity or pronouns. Harris County Jail records listed Green-Battle under the name Michael James Green as of Wednesday morning,” the Houston Chronicle reported.
After the hearing, Green-Battle walked out of the courtroom and said to reporters, “I’m on the news. I’m a celebrity. I don’t have anything to say.”
When reporters attempted to ask questions, he responded, “Get that out of my face b*tch,” before screaming, “I don’t have nothing to say!” He then criticized a reporter’s fashion choices while avoiding all questions.
“I’m such a celebrity. I’m a celebrity,” he said, firing back at the reporters saying “your mom forged [documents].” When asked where the organs investigators found came from, he said, “They were for you to eat for lunch. Stupid b*tch, they were for you to eat.”

Initial reporting on Green-Battle in November 2025 shows police executing search warrants on the property, where they seized financial records and cremated remains.
Houston Police Department Lt. Larry Crowson said the investigation was focused on “identity theft involving the identities of the deceased person,” and the funeral home was using information gained from contracts to defraud the families.
