Quote :

"The daughter of a woman made a gruesome discovery while going through her bedroom closet after she'd died -- the decomposing body of another woman wrapped in plastic, blankets and a sleeping bag. The Jefferson County Sheriff's Department is trying to identify the corpse found April 3, a day after Beatrice Magaha suffered a stroke outside her home and hit her head. She died on the way to the hospital. The next day, the daughter and her husband called police after being overwhelmed by the smell coming from the closet. Sgt. R.S. Sell said Wednesday he found the body of an elderly woman wrapped in layers on the closet floor. The body appeared to have been there for a while. While an autopsy turned up no evidence of foul play, the death is being treated as suspicious. DNA samples were taken from the body in an attempt to identify the remains. It could be several weeks before lab results are available, Sell said. Sell said another woman had lived with Magaha but family members had not seen her for a year or two. The couple told Sell that whenever they visited Magaha, she would not allow them inside her home, about 15 miles south of Martinsburg."

you can't make this stuff up

this is why CSI writers really don't have all that much to do...they just read the papers and then write the dialog

This sounds more like an episode of cold case than CSI.

Old woman goes missing...no evidence...

Revisited and suddenly...BAM

^ The woman could have just been nuts and when her roommate died, instead of calling the ambulance, wrapped her up and stuck her in the closet.

when I was in the navy, there was this old GMG1 that had the rack above mine. he was usually quiet and mostly kept to himself.

it was no secret that his girlfriend abused him. he once came to work and the flap of skin that forms the loop at the end of your nose for one nostril had been torn to the bridge of middle part of his nose. he was officially counseled many times to leave this woman. he never did.


we went to sea for about three weeks one time and when we pulled back in to Norfolk, there were police waiting on the pier. I guess the ship had been advised, but they didn't tell us anything.

Well, it turns out he choked his girlfriend to death and shoved that bitch in the closet and showed up to work like everything was cool. unfortunately the neighbors began to smell the body decomposing.

that's my experience with murders stuffing bodies into closets
