Woman drove around with mummified body

A woman drove for months with a dead mummified body in her passenger's seat before the body was discovered by police, authorities said.

Police are still trying to determine the exact cause and time of death of the unidentified woman, but the body of the woman had withered to roughly 30 pounds by the time it was discovered, authorities said.

This Mercury Grand Marquis, now in a impound yard, is the car that police received a call about Monday evening that was partially blocking a driveway in the 2000 block of Tustin Avenue. They discovered a body in the front passenger seat which had been dead for approximately ten months.

Costa Mesa Police officials declined to identified the driver of the midnight-blue 1997 Mercury Marquis, but said she was a 57-year-old former real estate agent who at one time lived in a home in Corona del Mar.

After finding the body inside the four-door vehicle, the woman told investigators she was afraid to report the body to police, and instead decided to continue using the vehicle while the body sat covered in clothes on the passenger's side.

I'm amazed that it took so long for it to be spotted.

Investigators said the driver of the car had befriended the woman at Mile Square Regional Park and allowed her to sleep in the car overnight in December. That was the last time she saw Signe alive, Everett said.

is that any way to return a favor?  and can you imagine the description of that car when they try to sell it?

Well, the stench of the desiccating body versus the stench of her father's defecating and urinating in the car just sort of canceled each other out.   :whistling: 

She (the driver) also suffered from a sinus condition, according to the video.

What's the problem?   :clueless:
