No One Knew Woman Was Dead for Four Years Because of Bill Auto-Pay
LatestHoly shit. Holy shit. Holy shit. Police in Pontiac, Michigan have discovered the body of a woman in the garage of her home where experts say she’s been lying dead for at least four years. All of her organs have decomposed, but her skin remains intact, essentially leaving her mummified. Those were the gruesome bits and now onto the really sad part: No one realized the woman had passed because she had little-to-no family and all of her bills were set to auto-pay.
From The Chicago Tribune:
Her bills were automatically deducted from her bank account, and residents of the quiet middle-class Pontiac, Mich. neighborhood said they noticed nothing amiss.
Nobody saw her, but the grass was cut and the mail didn’t pile up. Some neighbors said they thought she had moved out of the country after the recession hit several years ago.
Eventually, the money in her bank account ran out and the house went into foreclosure, leading to the gruesome discovery this week.
The woman, whose name police have yet to release, was reportedly in her 40s, from Germany, worked for one of the major auto manufacturers and maybe had a son. All details on her life are extremely vague.
