Dead Bodies
Now... I can't figure out what I'm more disturbed by.
1. That no one looked under the bed after 1000 people switched rooms for a weird smell?
2. That Anita willingly gave her name as the housekeeper responsible for the cleanliness of a room housing a dead body for 5 years?
3. That no one has missed Jane Doe?
4. That Febreeze semi-successfully covers dead body scent?
5. That not ONE guest in 5 years lost a shoe, their panties, a sock, or dropped the damn remote control... or looked under the bed for their belongings before checking out?

Stunning news this morning out of New Jersey, as reports of police discovering the body of a young woman under a motel bed have been confirmed. The owners of the motel asked that their name and location be omitted from news reports to protect their business.
The body, which has yet to be identified, was found by a person staying in the room.
“I dropped the television remote, and when I went to check under the bed I found her. It was like something out of a scary movie,” said Aaron Silver, the man staying in the room.
According to initial reports by the medical examiner on-scene, it appears as though the body lay undisturbed in the room for about 5 years. There was a normal amount of rot and decay on the body to suggest that it had not been moved or touched over the course of that time.
The motel has not made a comment about the issue but have told police that they are constantly cleaning their rooms and have no idea how this could have slipped beneath the cracks.
“I clean that room every day. I noticed a smell several times, and told my manager,” said Anita Rodriguez, a housekeeper at the motel. “He told me to just use extra Febreeze in the room and it would go away eventually. I always hated cleaning that room.”
Motel representatives say that all their rooms are cleaned daily, but that it is not the policy of the company to make their housekeepers check under the beds.
“They do a heavy clean of the rooms to sanitize for guests, but when it comes to under the beds, they just run the vacuum around the edges. Who really looks under the bed, anyway? No reason to waste anyone’s time,” said Charles Dyson, a representative of the motel chain.
“It’s the most bizarre thing I’ve ever seen,” said police chief Joe Goldsmith. “I’ve seen a lot of strange things in my time on the force, but to think about all the people who’ve stayed in this room, with a dead body beneath them, and they didn’t know about it? It gives me the heebie-jeebies.”
Police have seized room and occupant records for the last several years, and are trying to trace the person or persons who may have stayed in the room around the time of death.
“Funny thing is, the records also show literally almost 1,000 complaints from people who stayed in the room over the years. Everything from a bad smell to an ‘eerie feeling.’ Several people even asked to switch rooms in the middle of the night,” said Goldsmith. “The motel really should have checked out that room a little more closely.”
The body of the young woman is set for autopsy at the end of the week.

Many bed frames in hotels are built like this so you don't lose things under them. To hide a body you would just have to lift the mattress up.0

5. That not ONE guest in 5 years lost a shoe, their panties, a sock, or dropped the damn remote control... or looked under the bed for their belongings before checking out?
I always look... but a lot of hotels have the bed sitting on a box type thing so you can't see under. You have to take the bedframe apart.0 -
Ok, I'll take off my pants!0

So... what or who are they satirizing here? Seems like Empire News has a long, long way to go before they can think of themselves as funny or satirical. Just seems like a troll website.0

Because of stories such as this, I always check under hotel room beds.
No lie.0 -
I was just thinking, "huh... there's housekeeping staff at rent-by-the-hour motels? who knew?!"0
