Summary:
Donna Sue Hudgins, age sixty-nine, hid her ninety-three-year old mother at their home in Enfield so she could watch it decompose. She did not tell her family or friends that her mother died till months later. Donna was arrested for concealment of death and was released on Wednesday. Nobody knows if she has an attorney at the moment. Donna's mother died on September 7, and she told the funeral home that she does not know where the paramedics put her mother's body. When the officials couldn't find it, they called the police. Soon after, authorities went to Hudgin's home and found Donna's mother's decomposed body. A source said that if relatives tried to visit Donna's mother, she wouldn't allow it by saying that she was asleep or not feeling well.
Analysis:
This article was written by Lindsey Bever on September 26. It reminds me of Alexander Acevedo, who hid his roommate's body in a suitcase after she overdosed in 2015 because he was scared of losing his apartment.. They found her body in a storage locker.

Wow. It is so crazy that people would do this. She may have also did this out of fear from living alone and if this was another reason, then I hope she gets help very soon.
