A Wisconsin woman and her son have been charged with first degree reckless homicide and hiding a corpse after they refused to help the woman's 70 year-old sister after she fell in their home. The woman's sister died two days later, and then the two went out for pizza. When they came back, they hid her body in the basement and then in the garage, where police found her remains three months later.
When asked why they didn't call for help or have the body properly removed from their house, the woman's sister replied that she "had other things to do that day." Her son says that his aunt was able to talk after she fell, but he still refused to do anything for her and reportedly told her to "shut up" so the neighbors wouldn't hear her.
