Woman Who Stuffed Dead Roommate in Suitcase Didn’t Understand the Rules

A Bronx woman put her dead 73-year-old roommate in a bag because she “didn’t know what to do,” but insists she didn’t kill him. She left the luggage in front of an abandoned house with a sign that said “rest in peace,” yet it took three months for anyone to find the body. “My friend told me if someone dies in your apartment you go to jail, so I got really afraid,” she said. Bad friends really do deserve prison time. [NYDN]
