Daughter hid dead mum's body at home for months so she could study human decay
Police have accused a North Carolina woman of keeping the body of her 93-year-old mother at home for months because she wanted to see the various stages of death. The Enfield Police department has charged 69-year-old Donna Sue Hudgins with felony concealment of death over the incident.
According to a post on the department Chief Tyree Davis' Facebook page, suspicions first arose when Hudgins went to a funeral home to make arrangements for her mother Nellie Mae Hudgins but claimed she did not know where the Emergency Medical Services had taken the body. Following this, the funeral home had made its own attempts to find the body and failed. They subsequently became concerned and contacted the Enfield Police Department who sent Davis, Officer Jerry Shoemaker, and Detective Teo Antunez Jr. to the mother's residence.
