Below is a link to an article posted at the New York Times website this morning. I’m not sure why, but I found it very powerful. The gist of the story is that a woman who was very private decided to stop talking to people in the early 1990’s. People last saw her alive in 2005. The police forced their way into her home a few days ago and found her skeletal remains – complete with winter coat on ready to go out.
The assumption is that she had been dead for between one year and eighteen months.
Anyway, the story is linked below. Again, I found it very powerful for some reason.
Heard about this on Stern. Very sad story.
