Linda Chase, 72, said she kept the remains of Charles Zigler (Picture) clean and dressed and talked to the body while watching NASCAR on television.
“It’s not that I’m heartless. I didn’t want to be alone. He was the only guy who was ever nice to me,” Chase told the Jackson Citizen Patriot.
Jackson police discovered Zigler’s body in a living room chair last week. Authorities believe he died of natural causes at age 67 in December 2010, although Chase said it was last December. She said there wasn’t a bad smell.
She has not been arrested but is being investigated for financial fraud. Chase admits cashing Zigler’s benefit checks after his death. Click here to read more Nutty News Stories at Nutty News Today - new stories added all day every day
