Dum Pendebat Filius

Some weirdness from the news:

1. In Michigan, a 28-year-old woman left her dead 19-year-old roommate lying in the living room, covered up with a pile of dirty clothes, for three weeks. During this time, she called her dead roommate’s father several times, asking him to send money for his daughter, who he thought was still alive. The woman took this money and spent it on drugs.

2. In Colorado, a woman’s body sat in her car trunk in the garage for a month while her teenage daughter and friends “used her debit card to ‘do teenage stuff,’ police say.”
