Quirky World ... Husband’s body left on living room floor for nine months

USA:An Indiana woman is under investigation after her husband’s corpse was left in their home for more than nine months and fed on by birds, authorities said.

Gerald Gavan Jr, 89, whose body was found on May 3 on the living room floor of his house in Lafayette, Indiana, had been dead since at least last July 15, said Tippecanoe County coroner Donna Avolt.

Investigators are trying to determine if Gavan’s wife, Ila Solomon, had a financial motive for not reporting the veteran’s death, Lafayette Police Sergeant Brian Phillips said.
