Thread: Woman sat dead in front of TV for 42 years

THE remains of a woman have been found sitting in front of her TV - 42 years after she was reported missing.

Hedviga Golik, who was born in 1924, had apparently made herself a cup of tea before sitting in her favourite armchair in front of her black and white television.

Croatian police said she was last seen by neighbours in 1966, when she would have been 42 years old.

Her neighbours thought she had moved out of her flat in the capital, Zagreb................

How sad that her neighbors didn't give a damn enough to check up on her.

What an absolutely wild story. Almost unbelievable, except way too difficult to make one like this up.

This story makes no sense to me. How can nobody find her? Wouldn't the first thing the police would do is check her place? Wasn't she paying rent? What about her bills? How can nobody have checked on her?

theres no way.... 42 years.....

You would think someone would have smelled her decomposing

Totally crazy story. I don't believe it. I wonder how she died, and what she was watching.
