The tragic death of Jenni Rivera ended on a beautiful, musical note.

The 2 ½ hour memorial service for the beloved banda singer took place at the Gibson Amphitheatre at Universal City Walk and was attended by thousands, including fans and family.

Famous Mexican singers, including Marco Antonio Solis, Joan Sebastian and Ana Gabriel, played music as Rivera’s red casket sat on the stage amongst white roses with a backdrop of photos from her short life.

Family and friends were welcomed on stage to speak, in both Spanish and English, about their loss.

Each of Jenni’s five children also spoke.

Jenni’s youngest son, Johnny, said:

Beloved singer Jenni Rivera, one of the 7 victims of a recent LearJet crash, will be publicly remembered Wednesday at the Gibson Amphitheater in Los Angeles from 10 a.m. to noon.

Jenni's grieving family is calling the public memorial ceremony a "Celestial Graduation," and they expressed in a statement:

How mortifying!

Jenni Rivera's family is suffering through the worst imaginable experience already, why would anyone pile on additional misery and heartache?

Their 23 year-old pride and joy was just killed in a horrific plane crash, and it turns out first responders leaked the goriest of photos from the scene of the accident!

Can anyone blame the family for being outraged?

Taking pics of Kate Middleton sunbathing in the nude is mean, creepy, and likely illegal, but this… this is just WRONG!

Mexican police officers were already arrested after allegedly stealing valuables from the crime scene, but it's unknown whether they also took (and leaked) the highly offensive pictures.

Hopefully whoever added this extra misery to the lives of Jenni's loved ones is brought to swift justice.

The family should be allowed grieve in peace.

It's now confirmed that the remains found near the LearJet crash site believed to be those of Mexican American icon Jenni Rivera have officially been identified, and were turned over to her grieving family Thursday.

Jenni Rivera has indeed passed away.

More harrowing details of this tragic event continue to surface; earlier today we learned that police involved in the investigation have allegedly been stealing items belonging to the victims of the crash…

And now Mexican authorities are claiming the plane went into a tailspin and dropped from 28,000 ft, before crashing in the northern region of Mexico's Sierra Madre Oriental.

The remains of

How could anyone do this?!?

Following the horribly heartbreaking tragedy that took Jenni Rivera's life along with the plane, two Mexican police officers have been ARRESTED for allegedly stealing personal items belonging to the victims of the crash.

Not only that but government officials suspect one of the cops to be the culprit behind the leaked crash site photographs.

Is it just us or has corruption in the cop world become a lil' too much to handle these days??

Not only is what they did illegal, it's just downright tacky and disrespectful! C'mon guys… C'mon!!!

Oh no!

Jenni Rivera was preparing to purchase the LearJet responsible for the death of her and six others!

According to Starwood exec Christian Esquino, the singer was ready to shell out $250k on the aircraft to transfer the title into her name!

He swears Jenni basically took the plane out for a test drive the weekend it crashed.

Then again, Christian was convicted of drug-trafficking and counterfeiting government inspection stamps and is still currently wanted for questioning regarding his affiliation with the plane.

So we're unsure what to believe!

All we know at this point is that we're still indescribably sad over the loss of the Mexican-American singer.

We're so torn up over this horrific turn of events, we almost cannot bear to look at the photographic evidence!

Now, more than ever, we realize the beautifully talented Mexican-American pop singer Jenni Rivera only lives on in our hearts.

Authorities released photos of the wreckage site near El Tejocote ranch outside of Monterrey and the results were not pretty.

Like something out of a tragic movie, the plane the singer and the six other passengers chartered was literally torn into pieces and spread out all over the countryside.

Secretary of Communications & Transportation Gerardo Ruiz Esparza examined the scene of the accident and offered
