According to multiple American media reports, last month in Utah, USA, local welfare personnel were checking the living conditions of a 75-year-old woman and found that the old woman had died at home due to "natural causes."
But then, they were shocked to find another deceased person wrapped in a black plastic bag in the refrigerator at the old woman's home. What is even more surprising is that the deceased was not only the 69-year-old husband of the old woman, but he may have been dead for 10 years.
Later, as the police investigated this bizarre "body hidden in the refrigerator case", especially the emergence of an important evidence, a tragic case seemed to begin to surface...
The latest from the United States Fox News Network The report stated that the local police were "very close" to solving the mystery of this case, because the police discovered a very important exhibit from a retirement apartment where the old woman lived: a notarized letter.
The local police said that the letter was signed and confirmed by the old woman's husband on December 2, 2008, and was placed next to the old gentleman's body in the refrigerator.
The core content of the letter is: My wife did not kill me.
Other US media reports also confirmed the matter
According to Fox News, the reason why this letter is of great significance in solving this case is because the police are now convinced that the old woman’s husband was suffering from a terminal illness at the time, and in 2009 After going to the hospital for medical treatment on February 4, 2018 and returning home, he never appeared again.
At the same time, the police also believed that the time when the old gentleman was put into the refrigerator was roughly at that time, that is, between February 4, 2009 and March 28, 2009.
The picture shows the local police being interviewed by local media.
In addition, the old woman’s neighbor also told the police that the old woman seemed to be a very kind and friendly person during her lifetime, and “wouldn’t even bear to hurt a fly.” The neighbor also said that he had heard the old woman talk about her husband before, saying that he was "ahead of her."
Before the old woman was found dead, neighbors already knew that the old woman did not have long to live because she no longer received dialysis treatment.
As a result, Fox News believes that although the police have not ruled out the suspicion of murder in this case, the current evidence increasingly points to the old woman and her husband co-planning this "body hiding case in the refrigerator."
The possible facts of the case are: The husband felt that his time was running out, but in order for his wife to receive his welfare subsidies and continue to live well, he asked his wife to hide his body in the refrigerator so that she could continue to live well. This is "fraudulent insurance". He even wrote a notarial certificate proving that his death had nothing to do with his wife.
The old woman’s neighbors thought so too. "I think she hid her husband's body in the refrigerator after he died so she wouldn't have to hand over his Social Security benefits," one neighbor said.
"Based on what I know, I feel like that's probably what the case is, giving her the money to keep because that's her only income," another neighbor said.
Local police also revealed that the old woman still received US$177,000 in income from her husband's social security and veterans' subsidies after her husband's death.
However, the old woman's neighbors couldn't understand why she could live with her husband's body for so long.
"It's so shocking, I've never seen anything like this... because I don't want to live in an apartment with my dead husband or wife," one neighbor said.
Finally, Fox News revealed that the notarized letter found by the police actually contained a lot of information related to the case, but the police have not released it yet.
The notary who participated in the notarization of the letter in 2008 said that she only stamped and signed it and did not read the content of the letter.
