So…..exactly how does the house get new tenants when the owner of the house is missing?

RIP to the person found 🕊 but it's crazy that nobody smelled the decomposing body or saw any vultures circling the house.

These headlines get worse by the day smh.

If the first thing I found at my new place was a rotting corpse in the backyard I would not even unpack, sorry got to go.

Missing for months and police did not bother to check the home and grounds? But oh so quick to detain

[MA-mhvs]

It is hard to imagine someone did not go out back to find where the stink was coming from so I can't help but think they had something to do with that body beng there.

If the body is the homeowners, then who rented out to the new tenants? 😒🤔

[angelchild]

If that person who was missing was then found just out back; that is some stellar detective work, Chief.... wow. Please tell me the body was moved.

[annatryjesus]

[juliaweber]

The home owner was murdered oh my gosh that's terrible

[purplescapular]

So the tenants killed the homeowner, so they can live there for free?!

[nuttybar]

Nobody thought to look in the backyard?

[NitaCostello]

Maybe talk to the person who, in place of the owner, rented out the place to new tenants. Really, no one saw or smelled a dead guy in the in the backyard this whole time?

Being a Landlord is not what it used to be!

Someone didn't want to pay rent anymore.
